Newcastle United have been told their fans' banners in support of the Rainbow Laces campaign must not be used to 'try to quell the debate' about their ownership by Saudi Arabia.
Two huge rainbow banners stretched behind one of the goals at St James' Park on Saturday during their first victory of the season against Burnley.
'Things aren't always black and white,' read one while the other declared: 'United as one against prejudice'.
Newcastle's official Twitter account posted a picture of the two banners under the caption of a rainbow flag emoji and the words: 'United as One'.
