Check the "Flag/Regiment Thread"
There placed all along the Front of the East stand, I think we put 19/20 up as we couldn't get them all on there! (There's about 4/5 we couldn't make room for!)
As for putting them up at the back then in theory yes we could but practically it ws never going to happen as Man Utd Maintenance staff have to drill fixings to the back of the stand for the flags to be tied to.
Man Utd fans don't put flags up at that end so they would have had to put about around 120+ fixings for the 20+ flags and they didn't have time to do it!
I will repeat however, they were magnificent in how they organised this and how they treated the Wigan fans today and they are supporting "Our Manchester club!" Tomorrow!
