Actually as much as I feel they appear cheesey theres a big sadness inside of me at the suggestion you have to be a casual racist to fly one.

What a load of tosh!

I'm a skinhead and not through choice, I like boots and wear them at work, again out of necessity too.. does that make me racist? Utter nonsene, as cheesey as they look I hope lots of people fly them to make a mochary of the Racist nonsence. You can be a Hindu and still support England in the world cup or any other sport.

Local taxi firm run by people who are mainly of a non English heritage has the same flag on there door as part of there logo.

i think there a waste of money, why advertise it on your car fair enough its our country's team playing in the world cup but theres loads of people buy into all the commercial crap merchandise will however many thousand people flying these flags make rooneys foot 100% or help owen score a wonder goal somehow i doubt it

I know they are crap but look at it another way.  It can be seen as defiance with all the crap about our flag being racist.  Its people getting behind their country!

[Mart]

some people take it far too far though i've already seen cars with england stuck all over them for example a new fiesta ST150 and somebody thought it would look good with england written down the stripes, but if thats what people want to do i'm not going to stop em just think they are a bit silly.

our flags not racist its white

Our flags not racist........."depends where you come from whether the local council let you fly one or not"
Burslem/Cobridge in Stoke-on-Trent, the council wouldnt let the locals erect an english flag in the local park, even though flags were in parks all over the rest of the city.....the reason..."didnt want to cause racial unrest".
Makes me sick.....your british.....but if you live in an Asian area..... your victimised for supporting your country. (now thats Racist).
Easiest way round it is to fly a Foriegn flag.

:)  :) Can anyone explain to me in normal everyday English why it is considered racist to display the England flag...anyone suggesting this must be absolutely off his trolley and trying to provoke racism...that's my view...back to my corner now...

Exactly my point. Everywhere they erected flags on existing flag poles for the last world cup & the queens birthday........ but not in Cobridge park....  "oh-dear...can't let you fly a british flag in cobridge, may upset the local community".....This action started more racist feelings.
Damn councillors should be prosecuted for being racist.

according to the sunday times if we get kicked out the world cup too soon our economy will take a turn downwards due to the amount of england merchandise that has been made and needs to be sold  :?

I understand matey, just that everytime i see the union jack etc it stirs up bad memories of past conflicts when trying to show support to your country.
I think the problem is the fact that the union jack is now seen as a symbol of hooligans and "not" a flag of this fine country.
Sorry if i offended anyone "unless your a government official".
Nuff said.

Couldn't agree more  =D>

[strapping young lad]

just you watch though

once the footie has finished these flags will disappear..

so does that mean the people who have these are only english when the footie is on or are only patriotic when it suits them?

thing is if one comes off on the motorway i would imagine it be quite hazardous as they arent made of quality material are they ?
