Newcastle United supporters make heart-warming Alexander Isak gesture after Liverpool sale
Wor Flags have donated an Alexander Isak tifo that Newcastle United supporters used last season.
Wor Flags have turned a negative into a positive by donating a famous Alexander Isak tifo to Bradford City.
Newcastle United fans paid homage to the Swede ahead of last November's defeat to West Ham United. Isak was showered with a giant “Alexander the Great” banner, with Swedish and Eritrean flags representing his dual heritage.
Toon supporters showered the 26-year-old with love throughout his three-year spell at St James’ Park. Ultimately, their adulation counted for little, with Isak downing tools all summer to force through a British record move to Liverpool.
Wor Flags donate tifo
In a heart-warming gesture, Wor Flags have donated the famous “Alexander the Great” display to Bradford City. Newcastle beat the Bantams 4-1 in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday.
Bradford’s manager being called Graham Alexander afforded the perfect opportunity to donate the unwanted display to a good cause. North West Kollektive, the League One club’s fan group, posted on X: “We may have found a new home for the Alexander banner, thanks to @worflags and @KaseyCook32. Now just to work out how we can get it done in the Kop with a few additions.”
Our pleasure! Looking forward to seeing it at a future fixture. 🙏 https://t.co/MYbERij2Xp

Eddie Howe on Wor Flags
Eddie Howe has regularly paid tribute to Wor Flags during his time as manager. He said earlier this year: “It’s a purely unique thing. Wor Flags was a real innovative idea - now it’s copied by other clubs - but they’re the standard bearers. It’s the thought behind the displays. Can’t thank them enough - they’re very special.”
Graham Alexander on Newcastle United defeat
Bradford boss Alexander admitted his side were beaten by the better team on Wednesday. He said post-match. “You have to hold your hands up and say we ran into a better team. They deservedly won the game, but we are delighted for our players. They kept pushing until the end, remaining a threat, and we scored a very good goal with Andy’s (Cook) strike."
