Lets just step outside of the box for one minute and try to expand this particular idea for examples sake. Firstly we could obviously get the local fabric shops to provide material for as close to cost price as possible and then get business sponsorship to provide the funds. In return the companies sponsoring us would get a) association with ASFC, b) association with a record breaking event and the innumerable press opportunities that would provide and c) association with something that will stand in the Guinness Book of Records for at least one year.

People would definitley be needed in numbers to build and transport the thing but I am sure we could get the numbers. We would need somewhere huge to hang it. Maybe off Express Gifts? I dont know if that is big enough, but the Coppice would be.

Afterwards it could be cut up into smaller pieces and auctioned off on E-bay. Own a piece of the record breaking flag for a tenner. I would. It could be sold in larger pieces to other clubs who play in red or white for them to use.

What A fantastic idea
