From our (The Brockville Spirit Group) only card display so far, I can concur that it takes alot of time and effort to organise. Thankfully the club and PA Guy at TFS helped tell everyone when to raise the navy and white card at Latapy Day in November.

Ours is a new group but we look at yourselves, Red Ultras & Motherwell etc as how things can quickly happen.

considering it was only the begining of last season that the supras formed i feel personally it has largely been a success.

having the support of your club/board at falkirk will be helpful although the most important backing come from the fans. the club itself has had little contact with us although allow full access to arrange banners, displays etc. i hope the supras have the same level of cooperation at the new stadium as we all have a common aim.

Black card is pointless. I thought supras were going to stop using black card after the last time because it wasn't visable.

Anyway, I've seen the efforts that supras go to first hand and it can only be applauded. It was a large scale attempt and IMHO, the only reason it didn't get full participation is due to horribly short notice. Had this been arranged and publicised earlier, it would have been a belter.

I think GHR will be a good ground to arrange that sort of thing although I think using card rather than paper makes more sense. Paper just collapses as soon as it's lifted and it doesn't work properly.

My favourite display was the one at Ibrox. Those three big drapes (black, white, and red) and HUNNERS of confetti were brilliant.

I don't think anyone can have complaints at fans going the extra mile, so keep up the good work.

While I agree black isn't so clever as it's both less visible (look at any display using black around Europe and it's the same story) and more expensive; to not use it at all might look as if we've forgotten it, so a minimal amount was purchased.

As for card vs paper - I agree card's better but it comes with a VERY hefty price tag compared with paper. The white A3 and black A4 cost enough for the group as it was.

Confetti is easy enough to organise and manufacture in sizable quantities for away games...but we ain't about to use it for every home game for obvious reasons - the same obvious reasons as why Saturday was a special case where it could be justified.

Btw, as a fyi the white drape mentioned above got turned into the larger banner on Sat.

That would be the banner above which was photographed after the match. It had earlier been display at the front of the NB at the start of the match.
Thanks for all the comments of support above.
I'm sure there is a photo taken from tv of the Perth display further back on this thread somewhere chico.
Nice effort at Falkirk

[lovestreet]

But it was missing something. The atmosphere lacked an edge - something to get the diehards off their feet.

A pathetic attempt at a card display as the teams ran out wasn't about to provide it.

Thanks to a still from your video David , we can judge for ourselves if the Sunday Mail's reporter has any integrity.
Thanks to all that took part.

Cheers shull
Much appreciated

Thanks shull, looks at least a little better than I thought it might have.

Now that this thread's job is done, could a friendly mod please merge it with the main Supras one? (Clicky)

Cheers in advance.

Got to agree. Considering there was not a great deal of publicity about what to do a couple of the photos show that it was worth all the effort the Supras put into that display.

Just don't bring back the "Fortress" banner again. It's a jinx.

Thanks bud.

Kevo - I'm sure we will (on the assumption they beat Inverurie - if we're away to them it could be fun and games ). While it would have been good to see them beat the currant buns, thankfully the Fakes are out already this year....

Have the Supra's got anything planned for our first game at the new centre of worship?

Personally I would prefer it if you didnt, best to enjoy the occasion without making a spectacle

I for one agree. The 'card display' for the closing match at Love St. was nothing short of shambolic and the flags and banners on display merely serve to cheapen our supporters' collective image.

Best to sing and clap hands in a hearty manner, generating noise and atmosphere in a more dignified way.
