I agree it's a daft thing to do, if the colours are wrong then it's not the England flag and I doubt many other countries would have done. I don't think it was done to deliberately cause controversy, I just think there are obviously some very naive people who were making the decisions. At the end of the day though, it's a tiny flag on the back of a football shirt, it's certainly not worth the tantrums some people have had about it. Personally I'm more offended by the price than the flag being the wrong colour!
