    Arsenal ask supporters not to bring national flags to matches at the Emirates Stadium.

    I wonder what the offending flags were?

    It's certainly a strange one ??? Sounds like some over-zealous prawn sandwich munching 'fan' complained and Arsenal buckled rather than telling him/her to get bent and grow up. Either that or it's a marketing drive to sell more Arsenal branded tat in their club shop.

    i have not seen the sierra leone flag from big al's fan club around recently, perhaps we have done the same!

    i thought arsenal being a multi cultural team would appreciate fans supporting their players country? can't exactly see how they can be offensive, unless they have dodgy writing on the as well

    Spot on UEA, i found myself laughing at this when i read the article. Utterly ridiculous.

    I bet some moronic individuals took some middle eastern flag in with something on it.
