They've changed it now. It's doesn't mention the south stand. And to be fair to numbers who you quoted he's right. There's no stand or part of a stand at City worth shouting or making banners about.OABAAB said:GREAT POSITIVE ATTITUDE TO SOMEONE BEING PRO ACTIVE!!!!!! PEOPLE LIKE YOU PISS ME OFF.

A banner to echo one of the most pathetic chants ever uttered.
The "Kippax" corner out-sing you every single game.
FTR I don't frequent, but have stood in both from time to time, either stand so I've no axe to grind, other than being a long-standing critic of the south stand atmosphere and attitude.
"We are the south stand"?
Oh please.
What next? "I am the ball-boy"?
I'm a member of the Blue Alliance/City Centre Blues. Although I don't actually know any of the lads involved properly, I'm sure they'd actually appreciate a post like yours. I don't think Felix would expect a full thread of adulation just because he's taken the time to do soemething and any criticisms would be taken on board. Without the criticisms nothing would ever be improved!hisroyalblueness said:Getting away from the 'chest puffing' edge creeping into some of the sentiments.
IMO It's great that there's the enthusiastic drive in the original poster to go to the trouble of trying to organise a banner. Something very blue about it and certainly to be celebrated. However, I honestly feel that the legend 'we are the south stand' is a bit 'little england' as it celebrates what? Us having a south stand?
Well, all grounds have four quarter aspects that roughly accord with four compass points so it says nothing of note to me, and the gothic text smacks of the german military . . and most worryingly, the nazi german military.
Enthusiasm; fantastic
Banner; great idea
Font; very crap
Message; very very crap
PS. before anyone gets excited about my opinion, can you please be reminded that this subject was posted specifically to canvass comment and I've done nothing other than to comment. .
