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
yes you are proabably right. with crimbo coming, i bet they have ordered a load of gooner flags and need to ship them out
