On the Hibs fans in Molde thread, instead of being a celebration of how good it was, someone turned it into an argument about the CCS / Spirits in the Sky flag.

I think it’s probably on show today to make a point.

Ah, OK, didnt mean to stir a hornets nest.

Is it a tribute or sumthing then?

It's getting to the point where just about every thread is turning into an argument... that thread actually has 2 running arguments if you count the one about colours :greengrin

Like it or not, it’s a flag with the names of guys that are sadly no longer with us. Don’t see my problem with it myself.

Don't understand why we have a flag based on a Union Jack design. No idea why or how this would relate to guys no longer with us.

It’s been around for many years now - who cares about the design - it’s a Hibs Flag - and that one is all the more poignant due to the names - we seem to have a new breed of flag police now

Why does it bother you?

As far as I’m aware the Union flag is Red, White and Blue, which this flag isn’t - the same way a tricolour that isn’t Red, White and Blue is no longer a French flag.

I think I'm right in saying it was originally done to wind up Rangers, replacing their beloved red, white and blue with green and black.

Several of the group were taken well before their time and the latest flag has their names on it, hence the Spirits in the Sky slogan.

The green and black flag has been with us for several years, at least fifteen and probably more.

I can't believe it's not been noticed long before now.

My take on it, I think its great.

Much longer, there's a photo of the players holding it up at full time after the Anderlecht game in Brussels, that was 1992, and it had been around long before that.

I asked a question and its been answered.

As a mark of respect to the guys mentioned on the flag, I think its time to close the thread.

Love a flag debate!

...only just occurred to me that Wales are not represented on the Union flag and had to google the reason why.

Every day's a school day. :greengrin
