Me sir, no sir.
More German beer and then Wrong Bow.
Just seemed to be a really odd selection of Albion fans there today, including the long haired dribbler, the chronic wind beast and the towel boy.

You only take a towel if your a MASSIVE spastic!
Or maybe they were going to the beach after the game?
According to the Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy
A towel, it says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value -- you can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapours; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a mini raft down the slow heavy river Moth; wet it for use in hand-tohand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or to avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (a mindboggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you -- daft as a bush, but very ravenous); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough.

At Withdean it has an obvious use for drying the seats... but away at Sheff Wed... hmm...
Could it be a cum rag*? Perhaps they were hopeful of a Holroyd hatrick or something and were prepared for a clean up job?
* A few years back some mates went to a Tenacious D gig and bought the official Tenacious D Cum Rag. Basically a small piece of terry towel with a logo on it and a ring with clip on one corner. Designed to clip to your belt loops so you always have something to wipe up with...

Was the thing chucked on the pitch after we went 1 down yesterday? If so, it'll have been Withdean Wanderer giving up on the entire season.

No he wanted to know what the Rotherham score was, but we were told it was not relevant by a rather insistent gentleman.
