Wembley Flags



I've got a Sunderland union jack from years ago. Is union jack still acceptable, most seem to be England flags now?

How would a union jack go down at an England game for example? Maybe a massive whoosh but asking anyway.

Of course it’s still acceptable mate. Flying it with pride.

I’ve got a union flag with SUNDERLAND AFC and the old badge on it (the badge is much smaller than in the op) that I’ll be taking with me.
 
I've got a union Jack that I painted on Sunderland afc when I was in school I might take. It'll look crap compared to the printed ones like

You’ve just reminded me. I have a flag with the writing done in tipex. One of the lads did it at school for 92. Would be class if I’ve still got that one in the loft.

What's it like getting flags into Wembley? Do you need permission prior to going? Didn't bother taking it in for the CT final as it was covered drink from TS but I can't remember the rules about them.:oops:

I took mine to the CTF and they asked for the fire certificate and also measured up against a size chart on the wall as soon as i went in turnstile. No problems

Don't think I have a fire certificate for it. Probably not take it in if that's the case - don't want to take the risk getting an arsehole steward.

Edit:

Rules and Regulations

Just read this and there's nout to do with certificates:

"Guidance for Use of Flags


Wembley Stadium upholds the highest standards of Health and Safety. The following guidance is in line with the stadium’s grounds regulations.


- We know that many supporters like to display flags at football matches and Wembley Stadium will always be as accommodating as possible.

- Flags are not generally confiscated, however the obstruction of gangways, access routes, exits and entrances, health and safety signage and stairways is strictly forbidden.

- In the event of an emergency we must have all access and exit points clear.

- Wembley Stadium reserves the right to confiscate flags if they are very large or may compromise public safety, obscure someone’s view, a camera position or if a flag carries offensive, discriminatory or inflammatory messaging.

- Flags more than 250cm in size at their widest or longest section will not be allowed and flagpoles greater than 1m in length will not allowed.

- Any articles that could potentially be used as a weapon and/or compromise public safety are strictly prohibited.

- Permission must be sought in advance from the stadium and event owner to arrange use of the very large supporter flags that are designed to be passed over people's heads. In such cases the flag must be flame retardant and the organiser bringing the flag into the stadium will need to provide the appropriate H&S certification.

Entry to the Ground shall constitute acceptance of the Ground Regulations Published by Wembley National Stadium Limited 2007."
