Flags will be banned in the arena - 31 January 2010 19:24 ( #1 )
Due to an overwhelming number of complaints from people and now we have had chance to view the footage from previous years and can see what everyone means (and not see the acts on stage!), we will be banning flags on sticks in the main arena. Hope you all understand that this is to ensure that everyone can enjoy what's on stage.

Thats greatnews. The amount of photo's i have ruined because of some guy with a flag near the front. I really dont see how it adds to the person holding the flags enjoyment of the festival. how will this be enforced near the front?

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I don't pay £200 to see nothing but cheap/tacky flags flapping around in front of my view. And if that isn't bad enough, they also abscure the filming as well, so even the TV screens become useless.

They will be stopped at the entrance to the arena and anyone who breaks the rule will be ejected from the festival. Its a rule and if someone thinks they can be funny by smuggling in a stick up their ass then they should expect swift action. Plus I've booked a sniper!!
