What it includes
Named tribute boards, supporter visuals, promo work, fundraising messages and the display planning that ties them together.
Hats off to the Gentry.
The Gentry Tifo is the biggest tribute project in view: named boards, supporter backing, promo pieces and a longer-term display plan designed to carry memory, place and supporter identity rather than just one loud image for one afternoon.
Why it matters
The aim is not empty scale. It is to carry remembrance, place and supporter identity in a way that feels rooted in Preston and Deepdale.
How it gets built
Funding, artwork, practical prep, volunteer time and enough patience to do the project properly instead of rushing it.
Supporter backing, names and visual storytelling.
The Gentry Tifo is not one file dropped into one fixture. It is a wider supporter project built around tribute-led design, artwork, promotion and fundraising that all point towards a larger finished display.
- Named tribute boards tied to supporters and families
- Campaign visuals that help explain the work as well as fund it
- Artwork and concepts that lift the project beyond standard fundraising
The wider Gentry story still sits underneath the display.
The Gentry page is where the Gentry-specific visual language belongs: tribute boards, campaign material, supporter artwork and the wider memory of why the project matters in the first place.
The point is not just to fill space. It is to carry the feeling, memory and sense of place that make the tradition worth protecting.
Dave Robinson’s work
Dave Robinson’s prints bring place, memory, Preston identity and civic weight to the Tifo story, which is why they belong here rather than scattered through the general gallery.
Why his work fits this project
The best supporter artwork does more than decorate. It gives the project texture, local meaning and a stronger sense of place. Dave’s Preston and Preston North End work does exactly that.
How to help
Three direct routes, each doing a different job.
Back the materials
Fabric, production, practical prep and the larger visual elements all depend on real backing.
Add a tribute name
Names tied into the tribute work keep the project rooted in remembrance rather than spectacle alone.
Keep the wider work alive too
The Tifo is the headline project, but the wider PNE Flags work still needs recurring supporters, volunteers and practical help across the season.
