Orient Home

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

I'm sure most of us have seen that Man United banner, in the redb/white/black stripes, that says

UTD KIDS WIFE

IN THAT ORDER

With 'MUFC' and the badge in the middle.

I swear I saw this flag in the ground last night, over the bulkhead in the 'normal' away section. It had the 'UTD' bit blocked out (poorly), and the 'MU' part of MUFC was covered up with an 'LO', in a really strange manner.

So what appears to have happened is some Orient fan borrowed this flag from a Cockney Manc, and customised it for his own club, and then presumably will remove the temporary lettering and give it back to the United fan.

Very strange.
I noticed this too, even left the devil on it :lol: :? I did wonder whether it was some bizzare twist on the "banner stealing" phenomenon that goes on in Europe. But then it's not usual practice for it to be customised for your own use lol...
Most likely it was some Harlow based Arsenal hating ManUre fan...probably never been to Brisbane Rd in his life...a bit embarassing if you're Orient supporter...
