You missed the fact they had matching red jackets, keep up please!

| I made, albeit crude, a pirate's flag incorporating the Wigan badge when I was working as an engineer in the merchant navy in the late 90's (it was for a laugh at the time), therefore my flag predates both Saints and Wigan's. Winner!!!
Sadly it blew away five minutes after it's creation into the Indian ocean. But it's still there somewhere representing Wigan from 200 fathoms.

| Quote 21-12="21-12"I would like to point out to Saints lot on this thread that the Brigantes formed in 2009 and now own over 50 different flags with at least 25 more on order, not to mention the large hand held stuff and big wavers, the website, the merchandise etc etc etc so its not really a comparison. Good luck though.'"
You're right, it's not a comparison cos Brigantes have only been around for two years and we're all old enough to be their dad.
But the history of flag waving didn't start in 2009 so don't crack on like it did - that's OUR point.

For the sake of not embarrassing them further, I missed that point out.

That's the best bit!
I hand-painted a flag especially designed to taunt Leeds in 1998. We were first.

No, no ,no ,no no.
Watch the video of the 1965 Challenge Cup Final. Gilfedder kicks the goal straight from the kick off.
Camera pans to a group of Wigan fans with a flag / banner. I know I was that "soldier"

Did someone tell you to put that banner down before they "shoved it up your ar$e"?

| This is daft. Not one of us thinks we were the first to introduce flags to a stadium; neither do we think we were the first to sell pin badges or form an ultras group. The fact we seem to be getting accused of this is quite funny really.
All the best to the guys sorting the flags out at saints, hope it works out for you.

| Quote Odem="Odem"At the end of the day they are where we were in 2009. Ordering flags and trying to make the gantry full. They don't actually have a place to put theirs yet though. I am shocked they are trying to get so many on order.
It could make derby days even more special with displays at each end though. Obviously ours will be better though

In case you missed it, Dave26?
