BRIGANTES (Flags)

Quote: Loyal o'riley "I was just about to ask that question too. The Wembley site says no poles allowed (that's poles with a small p) and doesn't mention anything about 1m length sticks. However, you always see plenty of flags on cup final days. I'm only asking becasuse I got my cane confiscated by 3 skinhead stewards at DW on Friday. Clearly I was a danger to society.'"
