Re: Flags are back
Bless, I don't see anything wrong with expressing support for the team - expecting them to win anything is probably a bit far fetched, but we may as well start with some confidence.
If we could get the press to calm down their hype, then that would be an improvement - they are the ones who do the 'set you up to fall' jobbie, the fans with flags are just showing their support, in my opinion.

What a bizarre thing to say. I can't think of another nation on Earth where anyone would hold such a view. What is 'obnoxious' about them?

Re: Flags are back
Well one of these days there will be accident due to this fad.I hope I'm not involved when it happens.It wouldn't be so bad if everyone stuck to the small ones but last time I saw one that was full sized attached very badly to a pick-up truck.

I know its a weird view, maybe obnoxious wasnt the right word, i just seem to see them everywhere, usually on the cars associated with chavs, gives a bad view of them

I dunno maybe a few Chavs and the chavmobiles need to hide behind a flag..pity they go on the road in them though.

Re: Flags are back
It's not the plain English flags that annoy me; it's the ones with ENGLAND written across them. Are these patriotic fans so uncertain of what their flag looks like that they need to reassure themselves that it is indeed an English flag? When was the last time that you saw the Stars and Stripes with USA written across it, or the Tricolour with FRANCE emblazoned on it?

Re: Flags are back
Give it a month or so and there will be tonnes of these flags littering the roads that have fallen off cars.

Re: Flags are back
I thought they were a safety device to warn everyone else that the driver is a moron.
There's another similar one - a badge with the letters B, M and W on it.
