Banners

[IronShark]

Something for the CSSC to look into I reckon. I would put some cash into it, for sure! A big Sharks jersey or logo. The other option would be a big "Believe" banner with the logo or with Gal'.:Yes:

a 'believe' pull over would be awesome!

Tifo, originally the Italian word for the phenomenon of supporting a sport team, is mostly used as a name for any spectacular choreography displayed by supporters on the terraces of an arena or stadium in connection with a sport event, mostly an association football match.

Tifos are most commonly seen in important matches, local derbies and rivalries and although the tradition originated at club teams, some national teams also have fans that organize tifos on a regular basis.[1] Tifos are primarily arranged by Ultras or a supporter club to show their love to the club, but are sometimes sponsored or arranged by the club itself.

History

The tifo culture, like the origin of its name, has its roots in Italy and Southern Europe, and has a strong presence in Eastern Europe. It has much in common with the Ultras culture and appeared at the same time, in the late 1960s and early 1970s, when the first ultras group of Italy was founded, the Fossa dei Leoni (Milan). It has spread since and has taken over as the dominating football culture in Europe.
Tifos can now be seen in most parts of Europe. Still, the Italian tifos are dominating[citation needed], with supporter groupings having a better economy and larger fanbase. Not surprisingly, North America and Japan have also witnessed the Tifo culture rise.

Materials

Materials used to create tifos include:

• sheets of plastic or paper forming a pattern, like a sort of mosaic
• large flags and banners
• huge painted blankets (usually in the shape of a team jersey or flag)
• two-stick flags
• confetti
• balloons
• paper rolls
• flares (bengal fires) and other fireworks
• large dolls and mascots
• scarves

The tifo is often displayed for only a few minutes, often when the teams enter the pitch or at the start of the match. Planning a tifo can range large ones from taking several weeks, and several days before the match to prepare, costing large sums of money, to smaller tifos where the supporters hold up their scarves at a certain time and throwing confetti in the air, taking only a few minutes to prepare.

the Cove mix it up and have themes for each week [every now and then, one for a player] and the Tifo makes its appearance as the players come out for the start of the first half

some of the tifo's done by the cove have been nothing short of brilliant

Sharks Signs and Banners

We can share ideas for signs that us sharks fans can make and bring to the games, I notice we are one of the very few teams that have no signs? St merge are full of them, so are the dogs, like Iron said they are backyard jobs but they still seem very proud.

I remember we used to have things such as "Can he or Kearney" "Isaac de great" "Doing it Dougie Style" and even " A nightmare on Selmes street"

One of my favourotes was simply "Give em the bird!" with the middle finger lol.


I remember our good mate Iron had quite a few good ideas, Id love to hear everybody`s, dont be afraid to suggest silly Ideas, this is not a judgemental thread!

 

[Jigsaw]

We sacked all our good players we could make signs for.

The fLUKE one will be gone soon as well.

I liked "Hit ups $11 a Gallen" when he played in the second row.
