Flag recommendations?
- Thread starter OnlyUseMeWhistle

If its just really cheap flags that Sunday League players are just going to chuck on the floor etc the I saw some in Sports Direct last week for under a tenner. My decent flags are for Saturday/Tuesday footballAfter this incident I've noticed the away team left with one of my flags
I needed a new set anywhere, it was a battered cheap pair. Any recommendations for a ref who is exclusively doing grassroots football?
Ideally decent quality so they don't fall apart!
For Sale - Touchline Flags (New style) - £65 plus postage
Bought these on eBay a few months ago, not quite sure why to be honest but anywho, time to let them go again. Currently on eBay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/275471420964?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=CeBOlny4T8K&sssrc=0&ssuid=CeBOlny4T8K&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Will...

No price. but is/was selling
2nd hand market... With the.risks that presents, or spend the big bucks for ervo comms.
agree I don't think I would be looking at the cheaper alternatives.
Unless I'm mistaken, the Ervo Comm flags are way inferior to Touchline2nd hand market... With the.risks that presents, or spend the big bucks for ervo comms.
Too sensitive to the touch and flimsy as I recall. Just not as good robust quality
They are the two market leaders.
On the continent and UEFA they all appear to use ervo com. Touchline is/was predominantly UK.
Depends who you ask, I'm a touchline man, but lots of refs here prefer ervocom. There have been threads in the past comparing the two.
I dont think I personally have experienced those problems with ervocoms.
The buttons are often broken on older sets and they don't suit smaller ARs (flag and flag stick length) but overall I would have them still as a quality product.
Touchline or Ervocom
Hi all What are the better make would you guys say? Ervocom don’t seem to do the English style flags, but not sure which are the better quality etc. Both brands are roughly around the same ballpark £££. Thanks T

There are also the newer RefsTech ones: https://refstech.com/product/refstech-electronic-referee-flags-traditional-british-style/ which are "only" £379 vs the ~£600 for Ervocoms and the £700+ if you can even find Touchlines any more.
These are the ones that I found to have a really sensitive button when a ref turned up with them, I've not found that to be the case with the Ervocoms I've used before as AR. Because they're so new to the market I don't think you'll find any feedback on durability, but they seemed perfectly good to me aside from the sensitive button.
