View Full Version : Northenders On-Tour

The trip to Chicago.
Should we make more banners? If we get some material, we could make a "Northenders On-Tour" banner or something. Otherwise, I'm just thinking that we should bring the V-Army and Legion banners made by the CFO and hang them next to each other.
Second, what's the situation regarding flagpoles, drums, etc? I'm sure we want a colourful section in Chicago. We can make this look real good!
_________________________________________________________________
If anyone read the Dispatch, there was a reference to the anti-Andrulis chanting. Good job guys! You're making yourselves heard. It has to suck for the CFO to read that day after day. If we lose or draw tonight, I will join you guys after the game to chant for Andrulis' resignation/firing/departure or whatever you want to call it. I really can't not become a part of this, it's gettin beyond ridiculous.

If we do make banners, can we call it ANYTHING other than Northenders on Tour? I was pretty sure that's what Section 8 does for their stuff and being like them in some ways would be nice, but copying everything word for word is not. Since we don't have our big drum(I wonder if we could get our big drum?) I don't think drums would be a problem but flagpoles probably would be.

If we can contact the Chicago Front Office, maybe we can get one or two approved or something (flagpoles w/ flags).
This may sound like a stupid question (it probably is), but are we going to continue chanting/drumming etc during the Real/Chivas game? If so...for which side? I do want to stay away from Ultras Sur if they do come though. I don't want to be part of that whatsoever. I can't do the racism sh****** or anti-immigration crap they do.

_________ ON TOUR is about as S8 property as using banners, flags or drums on stadium is, it's very common. Well more common in England I guess, other groups just take their banners or small version of it.

As I mentioned in the official road trip thread...
Scott DeBolt is working on getting approval from Chicago for us to hang flags/banners and use our flagpoles and drum during the match.

I know, but still, we could probably call it something else. Was it Barra Brava on Tour to CCS(to watch the Crew beat themselves) for you guys? :p

How do you expect us to be Warriors when we're Ducks, coach?

Look at my Aztec Warrior! Look at my Aztec Warrior!
Why don't you call it something like "Crew's Traveling Band of Gypsies" (too 60s/70s? and yes I'm joking) or how about "Black & Gold Roadies" (not joking)? or the "Road Crew" just tossing out some ideas. (names are copyrighted by me, bitches). :D

some real quick ideas off the top of my head.
"We paid $__ to come see this piece of ******** team"
or
"we follow the crew; please kill us"
or
"we've come to chicago to see our coach die"
or
"why did we just drive 6 hours for this ********ing team?"

Bit harsh isnt it? Do you want to clarify that?

Stop taking things out of context folks. We all knew what OGHT meant(not actual death), as we all know what Fiddy means(the bloody terrorists).
For this trip I'm just going to bring two of the banners I brought to Chicago a month ago. Though, honestly, remember it's windy and that banners better have paper weights, or they won't work. Just a tip.
But not the "Crew fans travel to see better soccer". That has gone into retirement, seeing as I don't think I'll ever use it again.

Sorry, I assumed everyone understood I meant the assmonkeys that planned those terrorist attacks -- those are the kind of people that deserve death, not some head coach of a soccer team, no matter how bad he is.

I still think this one could apply on the 16th. It could mean you're really only there to see Chivas and Madrid. I think there should be some nice anti-Greg banners and perhaps something else, something new... perhaps:
"Now accepting applications for Crew head coach, Real Madrid players encouraged to apply"
"Andrulis, watch the next game and learn something useful"
"Becks, please buy our team and save us! You'd love Columbus!"
"Greg Haters Never Die, We Just Multiply" (somebody please please do this one... would be hilarious)
"We Came Here To Win, Since We Can't Do It At Home"

I understood what you meant, just thought you should clarify it. Not the best use of words i have seen you use.

While I don't wish death this reminds me of the Barca supporters a few years ago...
They threw a rock into the new president's home (Laporte?) and the message said...
"Our home is Nou Camp, your's is a tomb."
