I seem to be the only person in the world to think that "Chinley/Swedish/Wythenshawe/Middleton Blues" flags are a load of egotistical bollocks.

As if I, or anyone else, gives a fuck that a few blokes from Chinley have graced us with their presence.

Flags should be about supporting the club imo. Not bigging yourself up.

"Look, look, look at us, we are here"

Even more ridiculous is when they are flags from nowhere near Manchester and name check somewhere from miles away - even further than Chinley.

I'm sure there's a Swedish blues flag up somewhere at every game. Why? Big deal, some swedes support City. So why do they want everyone in the stadium to know about it. Without getting parochial about it, the club is Manchester City. Set up for Manchester. Not Sweden. Just cos some blokes from there latch on to the club, why would they presume to then plaster their location all over a stadium somewhere in another country.

It's all shite. Anyone, from anywhere, name checking themselves on a flag is an egotist imo. What would happen if we all did it? It'd be like a jumble sale.

(And what about the bloke who advertises his taxi business on a flag? Not even a place, his fucking business - free advertising. Cheeky git.)

And did I see the flag men almost claiming that their flag is related to results on this thread too. FFS!

I quite like some flags that support the club. Some are really good, clever and look excellent.

I don't like flags that are about individuals or individual groups of fans. Cos I couldn't give a fuck where someone on the other side of the stadium is from and don't want to know.

Mind you, I am thinking of having a change of heart and become a self promotion man myself.

Look out for a flag today with a 10ft close up of my smiling face on it with a thumbs up. Just to let people know that I've made it to the match. Yeah, yeah, screaming "Look, look, we are here everyone, coooeeeeeeeee, it's us, it's us" is top egotism and self promotion. But you are only doing it with words. It's old hat. It's retro. I'm taking this egotism to the next level today. I suggest you lot do the same. Big pictures. Just think how many people will know you are there then.

If so, just wait until the Chinley one is tied up and cover the fucking thing. Job done.
