The problem was this cypriot thing and frankly I think the club didn't have much choice. We have a whole bunch of Turkish and Greek Cypriots as fans (just walk up seven sisters) and a few years ago they were likely to kill each other. It was never about st george (ironically he was turkish) or being english.

sorry Radford disagrees the club bottled it. it could have done one of two things.Chippy wrote:The problem was this cypriot thing and frankly I think the club didn't have much choice.

1. told both parties to fuck off
2. told both parties to fuck off
the club chose to make an issue of it
Of course that would have worked, like this go to 4.20Radford149 wrote:sorry Radford disagrees the club bottled it. it could have done one of two things.Chippy wrote:The problem was this cypriot thing and frankly I think the club didn't have much choice.

the reason i voted against international flags is because where we live it is usually to do with sectarianism and marking territory, it can cause conflict with some people thats why i wouldnt be keen on it as thats not what you want we are all there for the arsenal!Radford149 Posted: Fri Mar 27, 2009 10:53 pm Post subject:

Rebel that is excatly Radford's point. Irsh fans proud of their country and The Arsenal.
anyone who has a problem with that can FUCK OFF
If some Gooners feel the need to wave an England flag inside the stadium that badly I guess I'm wrong then. However, my personal view is that if the flag is / could be used to provoke then the ban is the right thing to do since Jakes view is that people using national flags, or their nationality in general, to provoke are idiots...as Radford would have put it.Wayno wrote:If you aint on drugs then you should beJakeN13 wrote:Couldn't care less about national flags, especially with all the Engerland chants from the away sections at The Emirates.
In fact, I think the ban was good as England flags could be used to provoke at The Emirates more than anything else and it's things like that making the flag into something ugly instead of something that the English nation should be proud about.

I can't understand why anyone would want to bring a non Arsenal flag into the ground. I have no love of the England team or any other bloody country for that matter so for me it's Arsenal flags or none at all. Why the fuck anyone would bring a Turkish/Cypriot flag is lost on me as it has fuck all to do with our club.
