Re: Thieving Blues

Ric Ireland Manchester City FC - Official: A fan on Bluemoon had his flag mistakenly taken or stolen on Sunday, possibly by a fellow
Blue, at the Sunderland game and we're trying to track it down. Any help
would be appreciated. The owner of the flag isn't looking to press
charges or anything like that, he just wants his flag back as the cost
of a flag isn't exa...ctly cheap, but also there is sentimental value too.

You can see a picture of it here

Any help retrieving this flag would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to the thieving lowlife who stole my son's 10 foot flag today at the game. It was at the front behind the goals next to a big blue Q of S flag until late in the game when it was nicked.Now I can ...

It definately looks that way. I believe someone said this in this thread also.

Either way, the steward shouldn't be touching it and im pretty sure the flag owner could have a field day with the stewarding company and SAFC
 
Re: Thieving Blues

I had a flag that I'd had since '89 and it was stolen by a blue in Hamburg last year... scum bags.

I have received a reply from SAFC. I must say that I am impressed with the speed of their reply as follows:

I was forwarded your e-mail by our enquiry service.

On checking our c.c.t.v. footage we found that your flag had been taken down by a Police officer and given to one of the males who was ejected (we do not know why)

I am also sorry to say we have no record of the names of those ejected, unfortunately.

I do hope you get your flag back in the near future, maybe at your next game.

Good luck for the rest of the season.

Kind Regards

Security Supervisor
If the flag was thrust upon them by a Policeman who assumed it was theirs then fair enough (they could have refused it thought) but it has been suggested that they asked for it before they were ejected. The Blue in me would like to think it was the former.
