SS level as well, have ordered spare whistles to pass around as well.....Just ordered 6 ref whistles on Ebay for £2.25 delivered.
Ordered 4 packs and it only came to £8.28 with a bulk discount.
Will hand spare ones out in south stand.
Not read the whole thread but would a banner that said INNOCENT which was surrounded by images of Yaya, Vinny, Zabba, David, Sergio, Pep, Mancini be permissible?
Nothing controversial or offensive about that and it would be highly effective.
A big banner saying "We're Man City, we fight 'til the end" would be apt in my opinion.
Now that I like!! In fact that I love. No swear words just two statements of fact surrounded by pictures of some of our team would make a powerful statement.
Innocent and We're Man City we fight to the end................. I love it. I hope you pass those on to the 1894 group.
How do we do that?
Why should it not be permissible, as far as I’m aware it contravenes no health n safety laws. We should instruct our stewards to turn a blind eye to any banners in the same way that stewards all over Europe turn a blind eye to flaresNot read the whole thread but would a banner that said INNOCENT which was surrounded by images of Yaya, Vinny, Zabba, David, Sergio, Pep, Mancini be permissible?

I am not 100% sure but I remember that someone from the group posts on here............. can't remember his/her name though. However I am sure that someone will be able to help. Sorry GortonBlue62. :-)
Edit: is it @Manchester33 ? Rings a vague bell.....
I think they’re made up uefa rules rather than actual laws aren’t they and if so surely our time of kowtowing to their bullshit nonsense is at an end. Any of their stupid little rules that we can break, we should. So no jingle pre game, no transport laid on for their leeches, no hospitality in the ground etc etcI agree with you, but I think there are strict (and incomprehensible to me) rules about offensive banners or banners that have 'political' content.
If we can get our message across without breaking their daft rules, so much the better.

Or one minute added when there has been VAR decisions, injuries and goals.The biggest annoyance for UEFA is injury time in the first half as it upsets their advertisers - just notice how many CL games finish dead on 45:00 because of this.
You and I may be in complete agreement about producing and displaying the most offensive banner possible, but if the club decide they must follow the rules it will never be seen.
We need to be subtle, which doesn't come naturally to me ;-)
UEFA rules include stupid stuff like covering up the brands of tv screens around the ground and if you notice the City badge and Etihad sign outside the South stand will be lit up tonight but against Madrid it will be swithed off. All stupid UEFA rules so I can't see anyway we'd get anything displayed that UEFA don't agree with. So I agree with earlier posts where it has to be something ironic or cryptic.
Or maybe evertyone in south stand wearing t-shirts with something on them. That way you'd get in with them worn under coats but at the time of the UEFA jungle everyone wips their coats off. There wouldm't be enough stewards to handle it. Hard to organise I suppose.
