Dont know what the club are doing but assuming they will have a load of flags, scarves available and i would suggest you buy from the club rather than some opportunist spiv either in Freshney Place or on Wembley Way.

At least the club make something that way rather than lining someone elses pocket!

Apparently John Fenty is doing a 'Buy One, Get One Free' offer this weekend on flags...

Well, to be honest, it's just one flag which he'll snap in half.

Do Wembley have restrictions on flags at all? Potential lethal weapons and all that H&S bullcr@p ?

I'm sure they have restrictions on size. But since we are being outnumbered by bristol fans, wouldn't it be nice to outnumber them with flags/scarves and passion. Let's create a wall of black and white!!

Guidance for use of flags at Wembley Stadium

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
