St Georges Flags??

Where are all the flags that the fans used to take to Wembley displaying the name of the club they support, I am watching the game at the moment and I can only spot one or two.

Please don't tell me the PC brigade have put a stop to it!

    Yep. Brent council have banned all St George's flags from being displayed anywhere in the borough. Apparently its 'culturally insensitive', if you please. I bet all the immigrants are still allowed to wave their countries' flags though - and Brent probably celebrate Diwali and Eid and Kwanzaa and Hannukah and all manner of other foreign rubbish. The whole country's gone to the dogs - its political correctness gone mad I tell ya.

    Probably.
  • yes... phew for that. goal.
  • All with Happy Clappers

    That is shocking. PC gone mad
  • Please tell me this is an AFKA style wind-up.
  • There were flags there last night of course they're not banned . I don't think they like flags being drapped over the FA logo or over the advertising hoardings so thats why theres not as many . Good to see the Ernie Cooksey flag though
  • It would not shock me knowing Brent

    But as ever people will moan but take no action

    Let's blame something else on the kids eh?

    I was there and so were plenty of St George's flags. There aren't as many prominent places to show them in the new Wembley. Many of them were draped over walls that don't face the pitch, so they're not visible on the box.

    Kids or not, the atmosphere at the start was electrifying. Shame the quality of what was on the pitch quickly fixed that.

    You've got to stop this C_f_W. You're ruining the righteous indignation of the Daily Hate Mail readers who want to believe England has gone to dogs. Please desist.

    Immediately before and after for around 5-10mins

    Lol, gald I was not on my own, I was hoping last nights game would be entertaining as there was points riding on it however that was not the case, ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
  • yes it was a poor performance, but would rather watch that than a friendly goalfest. I still think we should only play friendlies against countries in the fifa top 20. Do you really need to play a friendly against Jamaica, if you get drawn against a Tobago in a world champs?

    We switched back and forth between the England and Northern Ireland games, due to Mr Weegie's allegiance.

    Now if you thought the quality of the England game was bad....

    Did make me think that! It was like flicking between the Charlton of four or five years ago and the Charlton of now!
  • Was flicking between that and the Scotland game.


    Both shite.
  • fuck me what do people want exactly ? We won and we are top of the group by 5 points .
  • Well if last night was anything to go by, I'm getting a season ticket to Wembley!

    Cold beer on tap; four-course meal; met Ray Winstone; more beer; padded seats (with drinks holders, if you please!); more beer; post-match presentation with Des Walker, Lee Dixon and Trevor Brooking; and drinks all night until the queue for the Tube diminished. Perfect. Couldn't have been any better. Except it was: I met and had a chat with Geoff Hurst at half time. How's that for a Wednesday night?
