XG Group produced this giant supporter surf banner unveiled at Manchester United’s Old Trafford stadium at the match against Everton on Sunday 10 February.
The Northants-based company was commissioned to produce the banner by Manchester United fans group, Stretford End Flags, to mark the 55th anniversary of the Munich Air Disaster. It measured 30m wide x 20m high, and was held by hundreds of Manchester United fans in the stadium’s Stretford End lower tier.
The banner featured the final line up of the ‘Busby Babes’ from the game against Red Star Belgrade in 1958, with the words “We’ll never die.”
The giant surf banner was dye sublimation printed at 3m wide onto 115gsm FR knitted polyester. These drops were subsequently sewn together to form the finished banner.
