    Weak group. Can we not just put Galicia through instead!

    Baden out of those three efforts.

    Hesse isn't showing up for me (am on desktop). Googled it and it's basically Indonesia plus that damn heraldic lion again; lions in general are cool but that ubiquitous heraldic one seriously needs to fúck off now.

    Baden-Württemberg is a solid colour scheme but needs something a bit more interesting than the standard half-and-half.

    So Centre-Loire Valley gets it for me this time.

    Utrecht - it's a little bit Polish, it's a little bit Danish.

    Pays de la Loire is another that hurts the eyes though - awful.

    Pays de lá Loire because of its 90's retro design.

    Madeira, for a decent ripoff of the Barbados flag.

    Pays De la Loire is honestly one of the worst things I've ever seen, and I don't just mean in terms of flags.

    I almost went for Pays de la Loire and its bizarre 'wallpaper samples' flag but that fúcking lion has to make yet another appearance, an obnoxiously deceptive one too - trying to hide but I see it there. :mad:

    So I'll go with Madeira, just 'cause it's a bit more colourful than Utrecht, and because yellow and blue is nicer than red and white.

    Wasn't there another one like Sardinia already? (May have sneaked a peek at the other matches :P)

    In any case, Valencia is nicer imo.

    Agreed. St. George and a few slaves - what's not to love?

    Yeah, Valencia is the nicest one here. Noit mad about yellow and red stripes but here the effect is neutralised by the calming blue band on the left, and the red, green and white bit in the middle gives it a Christmassy feel!

    North Brabant is a less interesting version of Antwerp, which went out earlier.

    And Sardinia....well, it's England with potential blackface! :eek:
