Really?
Are you
absolutely sure about that?
I mean,
totally sure?
Because, and I don't know how to break this to you, the
Greater Manchester Police seem to think that you're wrong. Also,
Oldham Council cetainly doesn't seem to have an issue with people showing support for their country:

I'd post a link to an article confirming that England shirts have been banned by Oldham Council, but I can't find one anywhere - any chance you could post something taht backs up your claim? A nice clear scan of the local rag's article would probably do the trick if you can't find it online.
Thanks.
