I can't help with printing I'm afraid, I will try and get a new version done tomorrow lunch time then I'll start another thread and stick it up there. The flyer can, of course be sent round electronically via facebook etc and people can email it to people they know who would not normally go.
As for pictures if anyone has any good crowd shots (home games) PM me and I'll give you my email address

That's fair enough any chance of doin b/w + colour obviously colour will look best but it's gonna be cheaper to print in b/w.
Anyone know of anyone in the print game or has access to be able to print some copies?

If it comes to it 2 on a piece of paper so A5 size then photocopied cut in half and done that way. What's it normally about 5p a copy at most places?

Just another thought that may help with the atmosphere in general
Have people seen at Wembley when the national Anthem is sung the crowd hold up pieces of card that make up a giant St Georges cross. How about something like that but it makes a blue OX in the middle surrounded by yellow. we could try and find a company to sponsor it by putting an advert on the back. It would also require the club to back it as they would need to let a few volunteers in to the stand early to lay the cards out.
The cards can then be ripped up and used as confetti.

If we use the name Block 17 Boys, reckon that could give us more of a focus than "Top Right". Gives a bit of an identity to the singing section too. Some one earlier mentioned small hand flags for the section, we can get a few knocked up, probably get a few two sticks knocked up as well.

We have done card displays of our own, see the northwich last game of the season, rushden at home last season. Macclesfield last month.
NO SPONSORS OR CORPORATE INVOLVEMENT!

So really we are looking at about £2.50-£3 to do between 100-150 in black and White which I would say is more than enough.
If anyone goes past the library or anywhere that does it and can confirm that would be lovely. I don't mind photocopying them but with work I'm not gonna be about other than online until the game on the 12th so would need someone to pick them up or distribute them at the Chelt game.

So, say this is a success, will you all consider getting season tickets next season in block 16/17?
I'm currently in Block 13 and it's alright. If it wasn't for Big Owen we'd all be in silence!

Then perhaps another batch that could be handed out at the game on the 12th
Excuse the bulk messages I'm trying to do this on my phone.

The worst about these blocks is I can never remember which is which. I've been to the ground around 200 times now!

For the flyers leave in the fact that's it's top-right, as well as block 21 (or whatever it is). It's easier to locate that way. If this is a success then the nickname will catch on I'm sure.
I think we need to put flyers up on the walls for the Cheltenham game (and the Shrewsbury game too if we can get sorted in time) and then actually hand out leaflets on the day of the Rotherham game. If we could get the club and the Oxford Mail to put a quick news piece on their websites (and possibly in the Mail too) that would be all the publicity needed. The rest would work like a snowball effect, if it's successful more and more people will join in.
Just a quick comment too, I don't buy the whole argument that this will worsen atmosphere (focusing singing on only one section). It will help to normalise singing as a form of support in the East Stand and should spread outwards, hopefully engulfing the whole stand eventually ;D
Perhaps John Lennon could help with getting the news pieces on the club and Mail websites as he would have previous with these two outlets? (Can we get the thread name changed please too)
I think we should cover the North and South Stands as well as the Oxford Mail so we are going to need a fair few more than 150 leaflets.
I reckon 110 (50 for the South Stand, 30 for the North and OM) to put up as posters, plus at least 500 to hand out on the day of the game (OM stand only of course). What does everyone else think?
P.S. A new thread for the finalised flyer would be good I think, draw more people in to read it. I can't work out the flags either???

I will join this block when I come to games. Has my full support.
Perhaps we could work hard to get a few more waving flags put together too?
