National Flag Ban

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Cheers Gus it was definitely quite a lot of this :banghead: but as previously stated mr gazidis does seem to be a lot more fan friendly than his predecessor.

We should have some good news next week about the price of beer in The Rocket as well, you see I do listen to your suggestions at least some of them :D

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.

national flags especially St George sholud be allowed at the ground. if someone wants a flag that says french gooners on the tri-colour then whats wrong with that. same as with the paddy's having Arsenal on their flag to identify their irshness and their support for The Arsenal. Radford is fed up with people constantly telling other people how to behave

Have displayed my St. George flag at the last few home games without a peep from the stewards.

Well done all in getting the club to see sense. I hope to see lots of England flags at the Citeh game.
