Banner Round 10 - We ARE the mighty Saints

Sainter_Boy · Tue 27 May 2008 1:21pm

Just putting it out there, could we simply say something like:

We ARE the mighty Saints!

or

We are behind you - Make us proud!

or something to show that we support the boys - nothing witty and clever - just honest heartfelt support! Let the players know that at the end of the day they should be able to look down at the jumper and know that they deserve to be wearing the mighty RED, WHITE and BLACK tri-tripes.

After all - WE ARE THE MIGHTY SAINTS - all of us - not just RL and his charges - WE - the supporters, the fans, the barrackers, the ones who bleed for the club.

Lets remind OUR sainters why we go to the game - make some noise!

The st kilda football club is dyin
Every night the fans go to sleep cryin
Please oh please won't you just
PISS OFF LYON!!!

I understand your pain - I feel it too

But do you really want the last thing the boys reading before they go out onto the ground to be negative????

Let them know we are behind them as true SAINTERS - maybe we can be positive in the stands to help bring some positive vibes onto the ground - to give them back their self-belief!!!!

We've been asked to go along to the banner making nights if we want to contribute slogans. St. Dooley said that in a post about a week ago, or so.
I hope people who can, do so.

Good luck, and thanks, to the die-hards who do this work all the time.

Cheers
Mark

Mark - when and where are the banner making nights?

Can you attend? - Coz if you cant - please post your thoughts here - I have loved reading them in the past!!!!!!

Some of us may be able to - others may be able to inject some positive thoughts before the night - I am sure that some contribution before a big think tank session may help.

But aside from that - My OP was to try and inject some positive thoughts - I love the Sainters - I need a life (lol) - and I want to give what I can.

How about the logo, and "Strength Through Loyalty"

I was just joking

That is never going on there

Although i have revised it

Up in heaves the angels are all cryin
Because those poor saints are slowly dyin
And it has nothing to do with the Dees today
But all with that boring bastard Lyon

Bev - I like it - maybe just FQF - that way the letters can be bigger!!!!

I live in the US now... so I can't attend the meetings.

I understand that St. Dooley was involved in collecting submisisons, but he is taking a break from donig that now. So it's my understanding that people are just encouraged to go to the meetings to make suggestions.

I don't know what nights they are - I think the night changes depending on what day/night the game is. You'd have to ask someone who's more involved than me.

And thanks for your comments about my past suggestions - I was just trying to do my bit!

Sainter_Boy · Tue 27 May 2008 5:23pm

Then keep doing it - as we all can - just because the CS doesn't collect the suggestions - someone may spring upon the ultimate positive enforement that makes a difference - even just 1%.

For me I still reckon we need to just enforce that: We ARE the mighty Saints

What about just a big picture of Harves and underneath it - Can you look this man in the eye and say you are giving 100%

supersaints · Tue 27 May 2008 7:09pm

Mmmmm

Now its time to stop the rot
Spank the Demons on the bott
Forget Lyons gameplan and attack
And tell him to shove it - up his crack !!

Has to be the winner

OR

If you can't look this man in the eyes and say you will give 100% then go home NOW!

Yep....banners dont HAVE to be lil witty bon mots...the best banner ive seen of late was Norths Round 1 banner....just said ,,in white writing on a blue banner

WE ARE THE NORTH MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB

I reckon the shield and FQF...and make bloody sure that its held up to the whole cityside wing pregame...applies to them as much as the players!!!

Sainter_Boy · Wed 28 May 2008 9:10am

Now thats what I am talking about!!!

Maybe not with a picture of Robert Harvey - maybe a picture of a mirror. The banner reading - Can you look this person in the eye and say you gave 100%?

Or simply FQF - let the unwashed masses discuss the meaning of FQF for a while - then cheer their hearts out
