Yes, I've read the the various links and nowhere do I see any announcement giving the police the power to ban an item of clothing from being worn. What I do see is guidance and advice given by the police as as part of an initiative to control trouble during the WC this year. Nowhere does it say pubs will have their licences removed for not banning England tops, only if the pub completely fail to do their bit to stop trouble kicking off.

The whole 'persecuted Englander in his own country" has never washed with me.
