love looking round the amex and seeing a sea of the stripes so will continue to where my shirt as i have done since i started going to football in th 70s
ps having spoken to a few of the players about this they all said they love looking into the stands and seeing the colours on display
yeah what else would they say , i admire your commitment but isn't time to wake up ?

Its a free country but its beyond me why:-

1. Grown men (and women these days) wear football shirts and
2. Coaches, staff and ex players now in their 40s or older but still wearing track suits and even football shorts / socks as if they were playing.

This is it, I always wear mine. The more blue & white stripes in the crowd the better it looks.

It also helps distinguish the real fans from the casual spectators i.e Stripes = Brighton fans, Assortment of nondescript colours = mixture of Home, Away & neutral spectators

So summing up,all the older fans who wear the stripes need to grow up and those that dont are miserable feckers. Ill just go and lay my shirt out for tomorrow!

Personally I won't wear a football shirt but have no issue with those that choose to, especially to the match. I do, though, have a very nice 'proper' shirt in blue and white stripes that is my 'going to football' shirt, as opposed to a 'football shirt'.

I think that wearing a football shirt unless you are playing looks ridiculous. However, I also think that you should wear whatever you like. Therefore I won't have one on and if you do good luck to you!

My daughter bought me one for my birthday with instructions that I must wear it to home matches, problem is she gave my age as my number,65, and POPS as my name.
So if you see a rather large gent wearing a simular shirt whilst holding a pint of Harveys it will me me!

Each to their own. I think it is a bit weird though. Kids fine, adults hmmm.... I supposed it all adds to our transfer budget. Last time i wore a kit of any kind was when i was about 12. That is the cut off point in my opinion :)

In a pile of football shirts
White trainers and a superdry tshirt for me. :tosser::tosser:

The British/Greek bloke, Theo Karpatios, who set up Superdry, based in Cheltenham, has packed it in. Whats all that Japanese writing on their clothes all about then? I assumed it was Japanese style, turns out its from the Buntiest Chompers In the Clundy
