Ulloa flag

[Working class pride]

This

Agree, has top be "Glad Ulloa"

The Large One's design for me.
The Argentine flag, and Leo in his Albion Kit....that means something to everyone, the regional flag would mean nothing to 90% of the home fans or the opposition.
We are happy to cheer his goals and chant his name, then we should embrace his nationality.

It would mean something to Ulloa... and that's the objective isn't it?

 

[somerset]

Great effort TLO, well done!

btw, interesting how steamed up some posters get about the Falklands compared with the almost universal defeaning silence that accompanies the continuing injustice meted out to the indigenous inhabitants of Diego Garcia who were forcibly evicted from their Island home by Great Britain so that America could develop a strategic military base there and have ever since lived in poverty and squalor in Mauritius. Not really surprising though I suppose, the displace people aren't white and there are no mineral reserves nearby.

Talk about double standards.

Yawn..... like every other 'overseas territory' owned by Spain, Portugal, France, Holland, USA, and any of a dozen more nations,.... why be selective?.... anyway, get off this thread. Its about a flag.

I'd like to see TLO's one with Glad Ulloa on it.

I don't know about anyone else, but I can't help feeling 'Glad Ulloa' will wear pretty thin on some.

It is on me. Soz

I also think that with the regional flag Ulloa would be taken aback that we bothered to research where he actually comes from! makes the Argentine flag seem less personal.

Absolutely. We need to make him feel at home. May create a few fans in Rio Negro seeing their provincial flag on show at the Amex!

Yeh, but that's not the reason we'd be doing it is it. We'd be doing it is because some people can't separate sport from politics, and also because of a degree of jingoism. And I bet Ulloa himself would work that out pretty quickly as well. Argentine flag or no flag at all for me.

Just saw this apologies if fixtures !!!



You say he’s The Cyclone (say he’s The Cyclone),
He wears blue and white (wears blue and white),
He played against Palace (played against Palace),
And made them look shite (made them look shite)

...and I'm feelin' Glad Ulloa.

 

[Captain Sensible]

Remember it's Ujjoa not Ulloa. It just doesn't work.

Ohh Leo Ulloa to the white stripes is the best option for a song and a cool Ulloa Cyclone flag would be the best.
Remember Palace got well and truly hit by the cyclone!

Brilliant, although would change last line to
"we're loving Leo Ulloa...."

although that buggers up the song and Tshirt!

Wtf... get a grip sir.

 

[brighton_tom]

Lots of good ideas on here... could we put some of these to vote?

Spending some of the flag money on one of these flags seem like a better idea than the giant flag that had previously been suggested as a use for the leftover 'stand or fall' money. One of these Ulloa flags could be kept and looked after by one/two people.

 

[papajaff]

I prefer to think of him as a naturalised Brightonian.

An Argy flag; not for me.

The day you become a moderator is the day I'll take any notice of you.

I recognise the thread is about a flag, did you miss my comment in support of it?

Other countries actions are besides the point, however woefull they may have been.

Your inability to recognise the pertinence of my btw in the context of Great Britains' anomalous treatment of the population of 2 different islands and your irrational response brands you as a flabby brained flapper mouth.

Yeah I can see what you mean.

Remember it's Ujjoa not Ulloa. It just doesn't work.

That's also a very good point.

 

[Bold Seagull]

Ohhhh Leo U-jo-er
Ohhhh Leo U-jo-er
Ohhhh Leo U-jo-er

ad infinitum for me.

 

[Mellotron]

They've not invaded us and killed British troops in the last 30 years have they.

Ah, so 30 years is the limit? I was curious whether it was 50, or 20. It's 30. So French, German, American flags are ok?

 

[Titus]

I wouldn't consider buying a flag anyway, but even if they were given out for free I wouldn't wave it. I'm British and proud.
