Admin phantom Posted April 1 Admin Report Share Posted April 1 Just now, Wedontplayinblue said: Could you please pose the question to the club, and if needed to raise to the EFL on what is deemed a political flag? I cannot understand how you can have such ruling without any guidelines at all, in my eyes the LGTBQ flag Infront of the singing section could be viewed as political , again I would like to state I have no problem with the flag but it could be deemed political. I also find it condescending how it is ok for the club to show an Ukraine flag but now saying other flags are not allowed. This isn't a meeting with the club per se, it's a monthly SC&T meeting Though this is something that can be raised at one of the other meetings we have. There's regular meetings about improving the fan experience etc, this would be a more applicable time to raise it Additionally, items for discussion had previously been asked for and the agenda has been set, so unlikely there'll be time to raise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted April 1 Report Share Posted April 1 (edited) I don't want to risk pre-empting but most would agree probably hat Israel v Palestine is more contentious shall we say, than Ukraine which most see as how shall I put this, a fight for freedom. You ban Israeli and Palestinian flags and that is even handed. Edited April 1 by Mr Popodopolous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See your point. Said my bit, worth waiting on Club Trust, Club, EFL to feed down I guess..From their prospective without knowing for sure, the less controversy or risk of controversy the better I assume- FIFA e.g. has frequently been jumpy about anything political symbol wise.

Apologies @Wedontplayinblue, I had wrongly assumed you wanted it raised, rather than querying what was discussed previously To make it read easier I've moved the posts to the previous months meeting that also includes @shahanshahanreply I believe that the club have been in contact with the EFL asking essentially the same question as you, but until (or if) the EFL reply I doubt there'll be anything locally announced as the club are led on these issues 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
