Hi everyone,
As part of our tribute to The Gentry, we are creating a huge, fan-funded Tifo to be proudly displayed at Deepdale — and we want your help to shape the design.
This is your chance, as loyal supporters and members of PNE Online, to directly influence how we honour those we've lost — friends, family, and fellow North Enders who are no longer with us but forever part of our club.
The final display will include every name submitted and be created in the mural-style artwork of Dave Robb, who many of you will already know for his distinctive, pieces.
Examples of block style we are considering are attached.

🎨 Proposed Design Brief:
Theme: The Gentry – a tribute to North Enders past and present
Colours: Lilywhite, Navy Blue, Yellow, and a touch of Gold
Style: Detailed, bold, and emotional — mural-like, but visible from the stands
We will of course be including the famous words of Alan Ball Snr, who once said:
> "They are not just fans — they are the Gentry."
---
💬 How You Can Help:
We’re asking for your ideas, feedback and inspiration. A few questions to get the ball rolling:
What imagery should we use to represent The Gentry?
Bowler hats? Suits? Umbrellas? A raised scarf or hand?
How should the names of our lost fans be included?
On banners, hat ribbons, a tribute wall?
Should we include Deepdale features?
The Old West Stand? The Invincibles? The Town End?
Is there anything unique to PNE that must be included?
The old Pavilion Gate? Classic crest variations? Invincibles imagery?
What about Preston landmarks or symbols?
Harris Museum? Ribble bridge? The lamb? "PP" crest?
What types of bowler hats should be featured?
Classic Black? Navy? White? One prominent raised hat or a sea of them?
