Requires 4 volunteers and is a lot more work than you'd think!
Surprisingly, finding 4 volunteers to do it in the past has been a struggle.

Everyone wants to see it out but far less want to be the ones helping to surf it.
I remember surfing it away at Walsall a few years back and a Gashead tried to set it on fire with a lighter. Very helpful.

I am not strong. Either of mind or body. Genetically, I should have been wiped from the gene pool a long time ago.

I am in the Uplands stand on Saturday and I don't think the old gits up there would take kindly to it. It would be nice to see it sail along one of the terraces on Saturday. |

Atmosphere is our job. You do have a point there my friend, although I do think the club should make it more known that's it's available. |

Just my wife and I have surfed it down the West Enclosure before.
Its not rocket science...
1) You arrange to meet Kirsty about 30 mins before kick off to collect it
It comes scrunched up inside a bag
2) the hardest part is finding the four corners to ensure you have it the correct orientation.
3 feed the top and bottom right corners into the crowd and follow it down the terrace holding the two bottom corners, as it tends to get dragged backwards and goes out of square.
4) You then hurriedly wind it in and scrunch it back into the bag, before taking your place.
5) you return it to Kirsty at the end of the match.
The hassle lies in getting to the match a bit early and staying a bit late., as well as looking after 8kg (and £1000 worth) of flag for an entire match
