I haven't heard this, but I very much doubt it's true.

However, the landlord is allowed to decide what happens in their pub, so I wouldn't be surprised if there was some arsey bastard that was opposed to it and decided to ban it and maybe everyone just took it as being the general rule?

I remember when I was living in East London and the council banned the Union Jack flags being displayed in the market as it could be seen as "offensive"

Abosulte bs, I was absolutely fuming.. and I was only 12

These rumours are always spread around world cups and such, It's just a bunch of racists trying to drum up hate.

Do these politically correct arsewipes even realise how big a platform they are giving to prejudice scum, BNP, skinheads and the like everytime they pass riddiculous rules like this?

Either way I doubt it will become a reality.

The Mars Company has sent the Mars Bars
to Scotland with the English flag logo on them.

Many Scotts will no longer buy one.

For the record Novo, InOne et al - altho I'm an awful jock, I have no problems with English people wearing their colours in Scottish pubs. During the Euro Championships in 96 we had exactly one Englishman in white among 100 Scots - we bought him a drink when Gazza scored and vowed to murder McAllister!

Sure - I don't think general ban, InOne just meant some over-sensitive.

In Scotland it is like this because Rangers/Celtic - not allowed to wear soccer tops in bars. Seems silly - but if read above, I'd be worried to wear an Argentina top as a Scot because I hope they will put you out.

If Algeria beat Engerland 1-0 and I'm stupid enough to wear my Algeria top that night I think is the point and I'm in troule. I said above it was accepted when England beat Sotland in my local in'96

As much as I hate to say it, I think you are pretty safe.

Its the same every World Cup, best team/chance since.... (I wont upset you with the year, think you will hear it enough over the next few weeks)
