Asked to take our flags down

(Oldest Posts First) - Go To The Latest Post


Well lads and lassies I have decided to keep my Tyrone flag flying outside my house until next year as a tribute to the historical achievements of both Senior and Minor All Ireland winning teams . Am proud to keep the Red Hand Flying high.
TYRONE ABU.

I some sympathy for you wise-guy has happened to me in 05 had the house done up with bunting flags and a snow man with a tyrone shirt shorts and hat only to waken up 3 days before the final to find the ??????? lot gone the snow man was full of sand so was pretty heavy trail of sand stopped at the kerbside so was a car job. I think it was last seen heading to balinderry , still the amount of money I spent in the O'neill shop I this summer I got a fair few flags so I wont be losing any sleep also have a bloody big dog now and he hears everything lol. Tyrone ABU

Its better to get them down now, around dungannnon they are already looking worn and tatty. They will just start to look rubbish in a week or so. Plus if they are up all the time, the whole novelty of them being up in the countdown to the final will wear away pretty quick.
