A tribute to Dean Marney - latest flag

cricketfieldclarets · Post by **cricketfieldclarets** » Fri Feb 03, 2017 9:54 pm

Some of you may have seen some of the flags we have created in the past. Long term aim is to get a few hung up in the CFS. Maybe next season.

This is the latest creation. Unfortunately wont have it in time for tomorrows game but will have it for Chelsea. Hopefully Marney himself sees (and likes) it!

Like that one CC, although not sure about the split badge as it looks like a boro badge on the right and the Spurs style bird at the top.

I know, did think about the bird after it went to print. Possibly should have gone with a keep the faith fist or just a full crest. Just wanted somethinga little different and creative!

It's excellent but the dot on top of the 'i' in fight looks like a full stop between 'gotta' and 'fight'.

FFS Good eyes... I will colour it in!

This is what you get with cheap foreign labour. Bloody Montenegrin flag designer!

I tell a lie. Thats the one my mate had done. The one I was going to have done was a Joey Sweet and Tender Hooligan one.

I like your enthusiasm for the Cricket Field Stand cricketfieldclarets ...[with help from a few others]..you have done a good job there, raising it's profile in a number of ways..that will have taken a lot of effort, well done.

It would be nice to imagine in a season or two that the whole CFS is ours again, covered with Burnley flags/banners and stuff..[ not blocking anyone's view] and that we find another space for away fans in Turf Moor, so as to restore/improve our territorial advantage at home, which can of course be valuable....we could do with a very noisy full BFC stand behind that goal...logistically not impossible I imagine.

CFC, if you don't mind me asking; how big is that flag and what did it cost?

Its been worth it. The whole match day has imptoved tenfold not to mention results.

I reate the design myself then my mate who is a graphic designer does the rest then we get them printed. Depends from flag to flag, size etc but this is smaller than usual at 5x3 and was £60. Looking at doing it properly but busy with the day job.

Should set up a kickstarter or something and get a big fund going for some huge flags to roll out in the CFS or flags on poles
I remember the club stating we could aslong as the poles were plastic

Got a meeting there again soon. The club were behind it. Maybe next project.

Dont like liverpool. But credit to them this looks quality. Imagime the cfs like that.

Hey CFC, you planning any "fundraisers" to fund these flags? Buckets? Raffles etc...

Club help?

If we can get anywhere near what the kop looks like, it'll be proper smart, but this sort of thing costs money.

Well ive bought around ten so far myself and was looking at setting up a proper business designing and selling them. But a crowdfunding type thing might be worth doing

They'd look great up in the inside of the JMU JHU on the sides. Be nice to have some remembering our league wins.

Claretforever · Post by **Claretforever** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 11:36 am

Love it!

* I think the dot on top of the 'i' looks like a full stop though, so would remove or space the lines out a bit.

Great effort!!

morpheus2 · Post by **morpheus2** » Sat Feb 04, 2017 1:21 pm

Looks like the scousers get away with taking sticks in to hold their flags aloft, I wonder if supporters of less pampered football clubs are allowed to get away with that sort of thing~?

How about removing the dots completely, as they are the only letters in lower case???

Make the i a capital I, as it would both look and read better.

Just a thought like... but everyone's a critic, right?

Loving it BTW.

Great flag, I've only seen it once hanging over the culvert during the victory parade.

cocotheclaret · Post by **cocotheclaret** » Sun Feb 05, 2017 9:27 am

Loving the flags and any tribute to dean marney is fine with me, great effort. I thought the Watford end opposite looked good yesterday just before kick off.

It would be great to see the cricketfield like that!!

Agree, that end looked good yesterday. It'd be great if BFC could add to all their other brilliant projects of late and get this one through.

This one set me back over £200. The quality is very good. All sewn material and thicker lettering / badge.

Lettering on the bottom of the crest has changed from the Latin wording to Burnley Football Club. I think the Latin job only lasted a few seasons.

You've spelt Marney wrong.

I was hoping for a 'He don't play for you, he plays for us' flag when I opened the thread.

I'd be willing to put some money in towards some flags if you set up a Kickstarter or something

I am going to crack on with this soon then. Would want input and suggestions from all who contribute - needs to be a collective effort. Got plenty of good ideas. Just need to hope the club can buy into it and replicate something similar to that at Anfield. They have it there, Boro, Palace and all over Germany and Europe.

Quickenthetempo · Post by **Quickenthetempo** » Sun Feb 05, 2017 11:51 pm

I think at Liverpool the club own the flags not the supporters and bring them out before the game.

Yes will look to see what we can do with the club, or even a collective CFS committee

MK93 - Great effort, that. Love the beard!

Your second attempt is better than the first also because the club badge is fully visible.

One small negative point, however: the Vikings did NOT in fact have horns on their helmets.

Ah man, I wasn't sure.
I'll get something proper done later on that's historically accurate.

Obviously it all needs 'agreeing' with the club, what is possible and what isn't etc.

But after that, I don't think it'd take long to get a decent level of funding in place, whether that be through KickStarter or similar, or simply a bucket/collection tin on the kiosks clearly indicating what it's for. The key to it will be engaging people, and keeping them engaged, giving them the chance to have an input and be part of something. You would need a central committee/reps/team - I'd throw my hat in.
