Triangular corner flags

Post by steve1264b » Fri Mar 08, 2024 1:54 pm

Does anyone know why we dont have triangular corner flags?

As FA Cup winners we are allowed to do so i believe.

It's only a tradition not a rule to have a triangle if you've won the fa Cup , so any club can have either.

It's an urban myth that Blackburn are allowed to have their crest on them too…

However, these supposed traditions is something that I think FA / UEFA /FIFA should bring in.

Meticulously covered in 'Twin Town', but I can't find the clip on YouTube. Probably not surprising considering the language.

Perhaps our set piece coach needs to look into this?

I think you're right. How about one for breaking a certain number of financial rules?

I believe we had square ones to accommodate Mike Summerbee's habit of blowing his nose on them.
