Anyone catch mlse's botched attempt at a tifo at the leafs game tonight? They unfurled a giant toronto maple leafs flag, only to realize the wrong side was showing
The text was backwards. Good job mlse. Leave the tifos to the fans next time.

CBC was nice to the Leafs - they showed it, saw it backwards, then stayed on the Canadian flag for the rest of the time.

They could have sat on that shot and let everyone have a good laugh...

Why put the lettering on it at all?

Just use this...

I love the flag that I occasionally see that is basically just a Canada flag with blue instead of red, and the that, wordless Toronto Maple Leaf in place of the red Canada leaf.

We know what team were talking about, we dont need it spelt out in every possible instance.

how do you know this wasnt on purpose?

Some supporting groups, Such as common in Argentina they turn banners upside down in protest.

yeah, a while back some ECS guy was creeping our boards and said this was done on purpose. Some thought he was just saving face.

I saw the leaf banner the other day and chuckled to myself a bit too

How is anyone surprised by this?

Leaving displays to fans who have no vested interest in them is a recipe for disaster. This one wasn't the end of the world, I imagine if they keep on doing it they'll get it right 8 or 9 times out of ten.

Anyone remember this?

Last year (July vs. Houston) they wanted us to unroll one of the large TFC banners they brought out in the first year. I said not in our corner as we had our own display, but they decided they'd try it in 117/118)

Now that is a massive FAIL! :lol:

Noone is saying that.

Noone else in the City do fan made displays like the SG's of TFC do. (Especially NEE - props to them)

Besides, you could have at least helped on a "tifo" before you talk shit.

hmm usually it's when they steal another team's banner and they hang it upside down... never seen the barras hang their own upside.... but I could be wrong...

Woah, Woah, Woah. Calm down there, Hulkster. It was a joke. I never expected that somebody could possibly take it the wrong way, let alone be so offended they'd call me out.

Second of all, how do you know I haven't helped out with a tifo before?

Lighten the fuck up.
