Hartlepool flag
During the first half of the game there was a flag visible in the stadium that had Hartlepool United across it with the slogan "Monkey Hangers" written on one side. Me and my partner were laughing that out of context that phrase written on an England flag displayed at a game against an African nation is just terrible optics. Sure enough it was taken down by the end of the first half. Somebody must have had a word right?
