Paul Scholes returns - Possible SEF banner?
Paul Scholes has made a dramatic return to Manchester United and several supporters have asked if we would make a Paul Scholes banner? SEF never got the chance to make a banner for Scholes, yet we did provide a mosaic for his testimonial game last August. to join in the debate or to submit your banner design idea, then visit the SEF Flag Forum here.
The Sir Alex 25 year banner will be taken down in time for this weekends Bolton game and the other Stretford End banners will be back on the stand. We hope to use the Sir Alex banner at other times during the season.

Would you favour an Old Trafford Singing section?
Manchester United songster and supporter Pete Boyle is leading the call for a singing section to be estblished in East Stand lower, something which Stretford End Flags fully supports.
Currently, the acoustics within Old Trafford make the atmosphere hard to hear around the ground.
The atmosphere from the old Stretford End Tier 2 singing section cannot be heard at the East Stand end of Old Trafford. The current Old Trafford atmosphere is at an all time low, supporters are giving up tickets as they no longer enjoy the atmosphere and the players call for them to be inspired by the crowd and the support. Establishing a singing section in the lower tiers allow the fans to be more widely seen, especially by the players and for the atmosphere to travel better around the ground. Unfortunately, Stretford End lower contains an exec section, so this area would not work an as such, East Lower has been suggested.
Have your say on the creation of a singing section and plave your VOTE on the matter by joining in the discussion and vote on the SEF FORUM HERE

Sir Alex Ferguson 25 Years banner
SEF would like to thank everyone who has to date donated towards the Stretford End tribute banner for Sir Alex Ferguson. To date Manchester United fans have donated £3,390 towards its £3,600 cost. Fans can continue to send donations via making a paypal donation to JLIB_HTML_CLOAKING or info on how to send a cheque can be found on the donation page.
The banner will cover the full length of The Stretford End (72 metres) and will be in place for the Sunderland home game on Saturday 5th November. The banner has now been completed and we would like to thank Barmy Flags for doing such a wonderful job with the banner, in their words "This is the best banner ever made anywhere, no exaggeration, better than those Italian ultra efforts!".
A mock up of the banner design can be seen below. In order to allow this banner to fill the full 72 metre length of The Stretford End, the banner fonts have been changed and all of the trophies won by Sir Alex have been included
If any donations are received that will take the fund total over the £3,600 needed, then these donations will be added to the SEF fund that is used to provide other banners, Tifo flags and 2 stick flags.
