JUICEBOXMAN wrote:OK, here's the story, I asked The Club If I could erect my banner on the last unsold sponsors' signage points behind the northern goals, The Club replied that it should be ok, so I ordered the manufacturing of the offending banner. Then, a few days later, The Club informed myself that there would be discussion at an upcoming board meeting about the banner, so hold off on erecting* it. Then, Wednesday last week, I was told that The Club was still cool with the banner, just don't make it a permanent feature, ir, don't attach it to the fence or one of the sponsors' signage points. So I took it to the game & at 1/4 time, took it onto the oval &, with the assistance of Fester, Saber & my mate The Mad Monk, we displayed the banner. Then I took it to the car, behind the grandstand, where I was apprached by 2 WESLO types, who informed myself that I was not to take it onto the oval again, as it contravened some sort of SANFL law, they told me that someone from the "match day committee?" told them to tell me. Then when I was in The Club at 1/2 time, Chris Davies was in there having a pie & a drink & I was told by club officials that it was HIM that instructed WESLO to stop me from erecting the banner again. Further clarification was sought from The Club today & the official response is that it is illegal to take any banner/sign/promotional paraphernalia onto the oval, unless it directly relates to a player & isn't deemed to be offensive or derogatory, such as "THOMMO IS GOD" OR SOMETHING SIMILAR. i AM STILL ALLOWED TO DISPLAY IT AROUND THE GROUND OR IN THE CARPARK, SO LONG AS IT IS OF A MOBILE NATURE. oops, I hit caps lock, sorry.
