OK folks, thanks to all those that have contributed towards the Jabo flag. We've had a huge £310 raised so far. The Jabo flag cost a total of £58.67, so if my maths (or calculator) is correct, that leaves us with £251.33 in the kitty. We could get a few more of similar size, or we could go even bigger with 1-2, possibly more depending on further contributions.

I've added a poll to this topic. Please vote, and we'll crack on and get a 2nd flag ordered for starters. Any suggestions, including designs (or descriptions so somebody artistic can design!) would be appreciated.

Could do it that way if they'd prefer? I'm happy leaving the pot open for others to contribute as well though.

I think we should have a few big iconic ones that recognise the history , ground key events.

Arise sir Jimmy one with him in famous arms outstretched pose after scoring .

Building Bridges one

Like the ground ones down above.

'You sit, we stand for cufc' to show off the fact we have more terracing than anyone else.

Love to see them all around the ground to bring colour and life to the ground. They will also cover up all the empty seats and waterworks wasteland

To be fair bluealf you're most famous moment doesn't necessarily have to be your best achievement. Ask people across the country have Carlisle ever topped the football league and most won't know, ask them if a Carlisle goalie ever scored in injury time of the last game to save his team from dropping out the football league and most will know.

Whilst player/manager ones look good, there's not much longevity in them. Should get some generic Club themed ones, and ask Club to tell Away Fans that Waterworks is ours only for flags...

Few ideas:

"BE JUST AND FEAR NOT (Club Badge at end)"

"WIN OR LOSE - UP THE BLUES!"

"THE GREAT BORDER CITY" - Use the Castle as a background, incorporating City Crest

Be great to see some proper long styles banners using the above IMO!

Win or Lose, Up The Blues!

Between us we have about 10 goods ideas for great flags to start with. I'm happy to keep contributing over the season to get them all.
We can maybe put our message board money to other things in the future to help brighten the ground and make the match going experience a better one.

I went to a Wigan RL match not long ago and they have dozens of flags behind both ends hanging from the roof from all the supporters clubs and pubs etc they look great. Check out Google images.
