Donations/Ideas for Get Well Soon Rambo banner.

REDaction have already got some quotes together for banners.

Really like the knee slide one can we get a high resolution copy of the picture from anywhere?

Obviously this will cost money and we do not have much spare so any donations would be gratefully received.

We will let people know how to donate later in the week.

I will start a new topic on this subject to try and get more support.

Yep, I'd be happy to chip in too - whether through RA or the OG. As long as we're talking a proper banner/flag, & not Smoothie & his bed sheet with the ambiguous stains again.

We are trying our best to get it for Saturday if not definitely in time for Porto.

Have now got a high res photo of Aaron after scoring at Pompey so we should be able to order today, which will give us a good chance for Saturday.

Fcuk it I have changed my mind on this cos right now I would prefer a banner from the Online Gooner and think that is the way to go. If the support is out there, and I believe it is if it is co-ordinated properly, then why restrict it to one banner ? As well as that I feel (based on a comment on another thread) that some people (not alanalan) will use a banner organised by redaction as some sort of justification for their group and use it to claim that they do represent us fans even though it has been suggested on here already. Anyway if there is only 1 banner and it is redactions banner then I will financially support cos the most important thing is that we have some show of support for ramsey but a banner from The Gooner/Online Gooner would be my preference

It's not REDactions banner it not your banner its not anyones banner its all of us together surely. You really need to get over this perceived threat that REDaction are trying to represent everyone, its not possible and we don't ever say that.

However this is a cause that surely we can all unite in.

If the OG organised it then I know that we would throw our weight behind it.

I have rang the stadium and they were quite unhelpful really but waiting for a call back from stadium management. But what I got from the call is that we're not allowed anything more than 1metre by 1metre.

So what I thought would be more effective is if we made an actual banner that read something like 'Do it for Rambo' or 'Get Well Soon Ramsey' etc with the crest either side or something along those lines.

This could be hung from the Upper Tier or Club Level over the hoardings and stay in place permanantly until his return.

I've found a relatively cheap company who can do same day dispatch so would have it in place for the weekend.

What does everybody think because I know RedAction are now trying to work something out, so if there are still people interested in this route I still dont mind sorting it out?

I think that would be good mate.

The more banners we get out the better.

We are looking to get a large banner made for display before kick off and at half time etc, so plenty of one metre ones around the ground would definitely add something.

Red Action would probably have more sway with the club to get a bigger one put up, but no reason why we can't do our own smaller ones while they get the ball rolling

This is just an idea so don't shoot it down just yet lol

This is 3ft by 10ft and I thought could hang from the upper tier or club level. The white background would work because there are red hoardings there already. I could get this printed and delivered by Thursday for Â£100. I'll put Â£20 towards it which would only leave Â£80 to be raised?

Thoughts please?

The first picture looks good!! Can you remove the Fly Emirates logo?? That would be even better
