    Nottinghamshire for Robin Hood

    I think Nottinghamshire is a good bet for the overall winner. We all must have a thing fo men in tights :)

    "There was a rich man from Nottingham,
    Who tried to cross the river,
    Woops, he slipped on a rope!,
    Now look at him shiver.

    Beg for mercy Rich man!"

    Missed last nights rounds but that Nottinghamshire flag is amazing!

    We’ve 32 down and 32 to left to see. Tonight we’ll get back into the thick of it. Can anything capture the imagination like Robin Hood? Join us later to find out.

    Berkshire - I think they should have a barking dog but a nice deer will do :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,382 ✭✭✭✭rainbowtrout


    Normally I'd be a big fan of nice symmetrical flags like the Devon one, but a stag looking at an oak tree which looks like it got hit by lightning is a bit unusual, so Berkshire for me.

    Berkshire


  • Registered Users Posts: 779 ✭✭✭ChannelNo5


    Berkshire. Looks like they lopped off the top of the tree to fit it on the flag


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,511 ✭✭✭Purgative


    Berkshire cartoony but charming plus my Mum and Dad used to live there

    Berkshire, I think the crosses show zero imagination.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 7,265 Mod ✭✭✭✭cdeb


    That Berkshire one is great. Completely left field.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Oh dear, it's a whitewash.

    Wiltshire. That bird looks like it's sporting a proper handlebar moustache.

    Munster crowns rules


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,684 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    Munster for the crowns


  • Registered Users Posts: 779 ✭✭✭ChannelNo5


    Munster pips it. Prefer the dark blue. Very classy

    Wiltshire - even though I'm from munster I have to vote for the groovy bird, really nice layout

    Like both, but think the bird is a bit of a lame effort.

    Muuuuuuuuhnster.

    the bird creeped me out. I thought it looked like one of the malnourished chickens in a factory farm :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,446 ✭✭✭davetherave


    I kind of like the Wiltshire one, the bird looks a bit...confused

    Wiltshire for me - I like the green and the bird with a feather in its mouth?

    Looks like they went to a lot of effort designing the flag, but cheeped out on the bird.

    Easy, Hertfordshire... Although the flag does make we want a little to go for a wee.

    As cross flags go Orkney's is quite good.

    yeah at first I was really liking the green, but the bird just looked wrong to me.

    I think if it's a feather in it's mouth, that makes it a bit cute. but I kinda can't unsee my initial sick chick image :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 779 ✭✭✭ChannelNo5


    Like both of these. Great colours in the Orkney one but I'm going to go for Hertfordshire.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,684 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    Hertfordshire thats lovely.

    Hertfordshire might be my favourite so far. Just keep it to the left of the Nottinghamshire flag or it'll look so wrong.

    It's a great bustard apparently


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭ari101


    Hertfordshire - a nice stage and although the other one has nice fimbriations (word of the week thanks :D) I don't like the colour scheme. I also have family in Herts. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,446 ✭✭✭davetherave


    Hertfordshire, the other one doesn't know if it wants to be Sweden, Denmark, or Finland


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,704 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1
