Grand Final Tifo

[Jimmy]

Ah, OK. I didn't realise that.
Even with a good dose of napisan?

Yeah, quite a few are so drenched I reckon I could get a full schooner if I wrung them out.
In the past I've seen them get mouldy in 36 hours.

OK, fair enough. It's just I have some sodium percarbonate (for homebrewing), which is basically Napisan without all the scenty additives. Just a thought they might be worth saving.

Hola you beautiful beautiful people.
What a night? Absolutely incredible, it still hasn't sunk in.

Again, a huge thank you to everyone who donated their time and money to this project, off the top of my head it was close to $2100 and we raised close to $2700, yet to finalise all the money and bills. There was one donation in particular that I don't think I can take in good conscience, it was incredibly generous, but probably too much from one person, I'll look at reimbursing a large part of the donation.

From the front of the bay, the tifo looked incredible. It's a shame that they had the lights turned off in our section and ruined what could have been an incredible spectacle.

Everyone at the game as supportive and cooperative with whatever we asked people to do to help us. We really do have the best fans.

Here are some photos of the progess of the tifo.
my son now has a great FC on his backyard football pitch.

I'm yet to count how many flags we have left over. Quite a lot of them will be unusable again after being absolutely drenched in beer.

If anyone has any photos of the tifo, please share them here, I'd love to see it from a distance.

Love you!

. and for Monty's miss in 2013

EDIT: sorry, just realised which thread I posted this in but the sentiment remains

. really bloody difficult to get a decent photo with a phone and the lighting and flame throwers going bonkers ... this is probably the best i could manage



. notice the banner advertising: "Witness Greatness on the Biggest Stage" ... the APL may have actually got something right, even if by accident

Howdy.

After everything all debts have been settled, this includes a reimbursement to an extremely generous donation which I couldn't, in good conscience take in whole.
We have $90 left over to donate to charity or put towards something or someone that may need a little bit of help.

Regarding left over items, we have 63ish flags in my shed, a retainment of 60% from the final.
As feared quite a few of these are extremely mouldy, they've all been washed and treated to stop the growth. But does anyone have any experience with removing it from fabric, dry cleaner maybe?

I have the five large CCMFC banners, these are in good enough condition to be used again. Maybe the first home game back. We may have a chance at seeing it this time.

There's a photo in a post above. It said CCMFC

 

[Ozhammer]

Be good to see it at the first home game of the season, which could hopefully be a match up with $ity……

Might also be good if we could add the words 2023 Champions too

Cleaning vinegar mate. You can get it from Bunnings. Spray it on line a stain remover and then throw some of it into the washing machine if that's the way you clean them. It's great for your washing machine too.

You playing pocket Billards there PP?

 

[Pirate Pete]

Yeah I noticed that.
Jeans are a bit loose and it was a new belt that I couldn't quite pull tight enough to keep them up.

 

[Ancient Mariner]

I wish my jeans were loose.

@Jimmy with the leftover we are close to gifting someone a GA membership.
Worth considering?

 

[Ironbark]

I'd suggest hold onto the leftover donation - there will definitely be more Mariners related tifo / drums / whatever related expenses in the future for it to go towards
