One more go before burning in fire - Chelsea FC - flags

[BasiliskStare]

I have here 4 chelsea football club flags in good condition ( the sort with the plastic handles but a decent size) - which might do a job at e.g. a birthday party or the like. Happy to post for free if anyone PMs , otherwise they will go in the bin. But genuinely free if anyone wants them.

Just one go before I bin them.

For the avoidance of doubt I am not that interested in football so any discussion re best teams etc - very happy if supporters of other teams think this is something I should burn in fire

bin them

bin them

Charity shop?

Majority decision - I am going to bin them - only asked as some little children like them - but thanks for replies - binning. Charity shops Bombadier are increasingly particular as I find to the point where unless I have a car boot full of stuff they can look at it feels hard to take it round to them.

Anyway thanks all - will report back when binned

Are you binning them because of yesterday's result op 😂
House of Chelsea fans here, all feeling bloody fed up after the match!
Don't think my dc would want them at the minute!

Ha ha @1happyhippie - no they were going before then. But then I remember DH ( married 24 years ) some twenty odd years ago turning up on the doorstep , wet , fed up & chelsea lost 5 - 0 .

It is ever thus - but also remember him turning up from Germany - hoarse when they won the European thing.

Sorry - I digress. No the flags aren't going because if the horror of v MC - they are going because I have a very very small house and my husband is going to be 58 next birthday. I have told him he does not need chelsea flags - and he said - give them to someone who would appreciate them. I may just dissemble and bin them & say I just gave them to charity. Actually there is a charity recycling bin round the corner , so true.

Burn or bin. MCFC fan here

Oh @AquerosAngel - I do sort of get that , unfornately DH ( 57 - nearly 58 ) has been a Chelsea supporter since he was 4. So the lean years.

I have a plan - Tomorrow is bin collection day. I am going to leave them out on top of bin bags. If any one wants them they have all chance to take I do not follow football but even I know after last evening these things are very low in the scheme of things. The game last night was so bad for chelsea that my husband ( fervent supporter ) just said - I can't even be bothered to shout at the television. It is as bad as that. & then 20 mins later I asked him and he said " well we haven't conceded a goal for 20 mins so I suppose that's something "

Oh I should not laugh , but I do have to bite my lip and not say "it's only a game"

Ah we’ve been through the lean years with City, fighting relegation and getting battered week in week out.

We are a massive football family, all season ticket holders, and DH & I are fourth generation Blues and DS is fifth generation.

I did feel quite sorry for Sarri yesterday in his post match interview when they were asking him if he thought he was going to get sacked, it’s naughty that.

Don’t bin them - maybe someone will want them for the Cup final a week on Sunday. Where there will be a repeat of yesterday’s result

Ha ha @ AguerosAngel and @LunaAzul - I am not a great football supporter but DH is. So once ( we have been together about 30 years ) I said to him - well if Chelsea aren't doing too well why don't you choose another team to support. He looked at me as if I had landed from another planet & had 2 heads ( and I know he loves me I really do ) and just said in a low voice - That is not how it works Basilisk. This is my team & I have to go through all of this. When they were doing well - he was happy. But now not doing quite so well. He has supported them for more than 50 years - he is not going to change. Anyway the flag thing is not because of the score last night it is simply because of small house and no storage. - So yes probably best to bin.

Oh sorry previous post also to @AguerosAngel - not sure it worked ! No matter - score won't change - yes possibly better to just bin. Kon Mari girl would probably tell me the same

Rookie error there @BasiliskStare I was brought up as a lifelong and devoted Arsenal supporter and will be one until I die. I could no more stop supporting them than I could voluntarily stop breathing

That was a proper twatting that Chelsea got yesterday though...

@daredevil123 - you sound like my DH

& yes he would agree with you that Chelsea got a "proper twatting" ( is that a technical term) But it won't stop him supporting them as it has not for 50 years. Ahhh he just supports the ones with the blue tops , come what may. Sometimes they are good and sometimes they are rubbish - but given he is 58 and started when he was 4 he ain't going to stop now. Unfortunately they just seem to be going through a rubbish bit. But over half a century - they have been more rubbish than now so DH will plod on with his hopefulness and support - Oh how very funny.

Football fans are strange
