This is a plea to the powers that be in these parts
I know i speak for many of us,especially the Southern lot in that we feel SCN aren't very well presented at the shows,despite the fact we have massive representation from the members and are the biggest forum.
At the shows i've attended during the last couple of years, we have fallen down massively in showing which club we actually belong to and at best have had a banner attached to a fence if lucky enough to be positioned near one or laid on the floor or attached to 2 buckets or similar,which is a very poor effort. At E38 last year we had to direct members to our pitch using another clubs flagpole as a landmark!
Again, at Springfest it was only that i spotted Brum's bald head that i had any idea where SCN were located,therefore i wonder if the big bosses on here would consider having something made for us. There has been talk that some of us are willing to chip in and i'm sure that still stands however without permission/discussion etc we daren't.
Banners are good for front of stand imo but i think perhaps some investment in flagpoles and flags as well would be a good idea. These act as landmarks to find stands and we should be showing we are serious about our club. Nearly all the forums have flagpoles at the very least, IOC has a gazebo etc etc. At Stonor Park on Sunday,10mtr flagpoles were just £26 and surely to have a few of these and a few flags printed up wouldn't be a massive dent in the forums funds?? maybe some sort of multi order discount could be had?
I understand that the admins/mods are of limited time and i know that a few of us would be happy to help resource these things if given the go ahead.
So c'mon,lets get SCN back on the map,we are one of the few Seat only clubs that has a massive presence,lets make that felt....pleeease
