crucial text from article.

The flag has been designed by Peter Saville, the man behind the record sleeves for Joy Division, as part of a campaign in favour of a regional assembly for the region, which is being headed by the founder of Factory Records, Tony Wilson.

Wilson says the flag is really intended as a symbol for the campaign, rather than an official flag, and says: "If you're going into battle, [a flag] is a very useful thing to have."

the actual Saville design is typical Saville. Someone else's idea/design slightly eskew. The Saville Formula!

What is Wilson doing now anyway?

Read somewhere Tony has a new label called Red Cellars, attempted to sign Cat On Form but they went to Southern Records instead :rolleyes: Oh well, their loss. Don't know if he managed to sign anyone else.

Saville is a genius! The cross even intersects in the South-East; which, as everyone already knows, marks the true heart of Engerland! Well done, Peter!

:D

No, I'm not rising to the bait either! BTW, Al, you CAN definitely see Jon Scott's reflection in Barney's sunglasses on the Finsbury DVD....
