kirku 1,357 Posted March 10, 2022 What a disgusting decision by the club. We often hear about their values and how much they mean - what kind of message does this send? Morally contemptuous Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WD40 725 Posted March 10, 2022 The whole football administration ties themselves in knots about what they allow and don’t allow in terms of political messages and hypocritical justifications. It’s a farce. This is a horrendous decision. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Morally contemptuous I really can't understand why they would stop people bringing a Ukrainian flag tonight, like someone has already mentioned, tonight's game would be the perfect opportunity for us to show our feelings towards Ukraine. The club has got this massively wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,680 Posted March 10, 2022 WTF? A family club. Giving in to political pressure? The very reason to wave one is not to give in. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Midlands Yellow 4,490 Posted March 10, 2022 Don’t want to upset Chelsea so it gets banned. Against any other club you’d be able to use your old lad as a flag pole and swing it all match. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Morally contemptuous This really is a very poor decision indeed, especially coming after Saturday’s flag display. We don’t want to upset anybody by pointing out that large numbers of innocent Ukrainians are being murdered by a Russian thug. Time for a rethink. If this doesn’t happen I bet we’ll get a grovelling apology tomorrow saying somebody at the club got it badly wrong. Correct it now!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,778 Posted March 10, 2022 The Premier League is corrupt. Plenty of us have been saying that for years. Will the anger and ire toward our club from posters on this thread now be directed to the PL? Remember the outrage in the spring of 2020 where posters on here were heralding a great reset after Covid? It never happened. Other people's money soon returned to the throne. Russian Oligarchs would have been welcomed on here just a month ago... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s just clearly wrong - some will clearly bash the club and double down when shown to be incorrect, which is pretty silly. This will be a PL edict. I can’t see how they can control chanting or people who bring things in, though. Edited March 10, 2022 by Branston Pickle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
