FINALLY an English fan group with sticker designs more imaginative than just the old St George’s cross with team name slapped on top of it. Ladies and gents, Bristol City.
A city of two teams, but don’t let either of them catch you saying that.
We have seen the support coming out of the Southwest’s number 1 city getting better over the past couple years. A visit is overdue.
Seen on location in Liverpool.
The Ultras Inferno 1996 of Standard Liege with a compilation-style design with the GTA font and Gothic font below. Sweet design that promotes the fan group well.
FBTG‘s visit to Johor Bahru is now over, but we went out with a bang.
The itinerary included a daytime groundhop, the JDT II team vs ATM at the Pasir Gudang Corporation Stadium (1-1), the Johor Darul Ta’zim First XI beating Kelantan 3-0 at the Stadium Tan Sri Dato Hj Hassan, the presentation of the Malaysian Super League trophy to the reigning champions JDT the same evening and a good amount of conversations with locals to learn about the team, city, region and people of Johor.

If it’s going to be anything, then it has to be this….
Just a bit of a laugh, no offense meant to anyone.
Found on location in Rostock, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. A beautiful place with a beautiful club, go check it out. The entire city is plastered with these things, in case you ever forget, which was the biggest team in the Bundesland. Check out our post “Mein Rostock, unser Hansa” for a good 5 minute read.
