The departure of Mike Ashley meant the return of Wor Flags to matches, as they ended their boycott almost five years ago now.

The pre-match flag displays once again becoming part of the matchday routine, starting with the first post-takeover match against Spurs at St James’ Park in October 2021.

Then ahead of the first home match of the 2022/23 season, Wor Flags invited all fans to consider helping them with future flag displays by setting up a regular monthly donation to assist in funding them.

Wor Flags in recent weeks informed Newcastle United fans about their next St James’ Park display.

Something very special for the first home match of the season when Liverpool visit St James’ Park.

Wor Flags messages now publishing updates to Newcastle United fans about the Kevin Keegan tributes via their social media:

“Preparation has begun ahead of our display on Sunday. Every single seat in the ground will be involved, so please raise the card on your seat when instructed by the PA announcer. We’re delighted to include the away end as part of the display and we’d like to thank @SpionKop1906 for their support.”

Wor Flags then putting up the following:

This will be class.

I can’t imagine how much work will have to go into this from the volunteers who plan and put the displays in place, plus of course then tidy them away afterwards.

The least the rest of us can do is help to finance it, if able to.

So if you are in a position to do so, please consider making a donation to Wor Flags to help support the special Kevin Keegan display at the Liverpool match, plus of course showing your support for all of their displays.
