| After raising the money before the Leeds home game.. I think we should get a flag to remember Terry Newton.
Tez will always be remembered as Wigans number 9 rather than Leeds' or Bradfords etc. and having a flag made in his memory would be a touching tribute to Terry.
Not really thought what the flag could say.. But a plain & simple
Terry Newton
Forever a Wiganer
would be good but I'm sure alot of you will have different ideas?

| I'm sure if you email old trafford and enquire they may allow them to come if they are erected correctly.
If there is no sponsorship on the 2nd tier of the east I shouldn't see the problem in taking the flags!

Won't be happening.
Basically the only flags that can be erected have to be less than 4ft in depth. Any larger and they would hang over the view of the exec boxes.
Every single one we have so far is over that (5ft in depth is the smallest we have).
There is absolutely nowhere else for them to go as it stands.
Without wishing to soundy funny, We've been working on this with the RFL/Engage/Man utd Ground safety & Wigan RL for the past 2 months on the off chance we would get there.
Final decision was made on Friday
I kept it quiet because I didn't want us to look like we were getting ahead of ourselves but MattyB Jimmy Birts Conroy etc will confirm that these negotiations have been going on and we've tried tremendously hard to get it to work.
Apologies as it doesn't look like it's a goer, I'll update you as the week goes on if there's any change.
Thanks
Andy

I'd say the average cost is £150 per flag. Some have been dearer and some cheaper, depends on the design.

| RE. The Newton flag. Would it not be a better idea to wait a while and then get the club to approach his family regarding using his name/image. It may be something that they wouldn't want you to do. it my be upsetting for them if they go to games and see an image of him above the south stand.
Of course they may love the idea and feel honoured that he's been considered for this by the fans but i just think it would be a good idea to clear it with them first.

| With regards to the Terry Newton flag ideas, I think things should be left to settle for a while. At some point in the future his family should be approached to see if they would like a flag.
If they are ok with it then I think I'd have it in the present tense.
