Overall i think there have been a lot of good ideas written on here and i would definately get involved.

OK, the club have been in touch & think the idea of a section for flags, banners, scarves, singing etc is great one. I've arranged to meet with the key movers & shakers (Marketing Manager, Stadium Manager etc).

Some ideas already raised by others include - location (South East corner??), free scarves, are flags on large flag poles allowed, storage & access to flags and banners on matchday..

Any other ideas ?

Four large flags being waved at the bottom as the Loyal 18 flag is making it's way up the south stand would look class. They would be allowed but would just need to be 'dipped' and made fire proof.

Just ask the question if flares will be allowed. Be sure to drive home how important the impact large flags on poles will have visually.

And are we talking South of the Boston stand or East of the South stand?

Strict "no drum" policy should be enforced. Noise can be made without a drum beat drowning out every song. Also, we dont want the area to be full of little chavs, not sure how this could be avoided, one way could be to have the area in the East stand rather than the South.

Great attitude to have and the reason why the JJB is like a morgue on most match days.

What of it? I go to watch the game first and foremost.

I am sure you will sing extra loud to compensate for me.

Surely that's one of the reasons for an initiative like this - so that the singers can have a place to do what they want to do and create more of an atmosphere together whilst the people who don't want to don't have to associate with such riff raff.

Think its a great idea btw, good luck with it.

keep us updated via pm jimmy, great idea this.

i had a look at getting a flag to incorporate the ultras and "forza wigan" is 60 quid on red background with white writing. had a word with a few of the people who i go to the game with and they seem up for it.

Make sure it's a "standing allowed/encouraged area," last thing I want is to be told to sit down while i'm bouncing to Dale Cavese or to take a massive flag only for some god-botherer sat behind me whinging about how "we didn't need flags in my day" etc.

This could be one of the main stumbling blocks of the idea. Standing in large numbers is really frowned upon due to "safety issues". Obviously to generate a decent atmosphere people will want to stand, the club could be quick to call time on this idea if it becomes an issue.
