[Exile on Spencer St]

The so-called 'rule' that has allegedly been breached is wearing a political symbol or message on the shirt. I know this because the Brussels Broadcasting Corporation said so on their web site when the the thing kicked off a few weeks ago (and I believe everything the BBC tells me, not).
What was interesting was that the web article was accompanied by a photo of a Scottish footballer, wearing a "kick racism out of football" armband.
Now, I, and am sure most sane people, have absolutely no complaint about that. But how is that not a 'political' message, but a poppy is?
If we didn't need to wear a poppy once a year, the team's might have been required to wear a swastika on their shirts.
