Football shirts. I just don't get it. The way I see it is this...

- I wouldn't turn up to the theatre to see MacBeth wearing a ruff.
- I would never dress in spandex to see a CSS gig
- I would never adorn a leather jacket and whip to see an Indian Jones film at the flicks
- I wouldn't wear plus fours to watch golf and i would not wear a crash helmet to watch the grand prix
- I wouldn't dress up as a policeman if I needed to report a crime

So, based on the same logic, I would never dress up as a footballer see a football match

However, I do love the fact that John Burridge used to get into a goalkeepers kit and sit with a ball on his lap to watch MOTD. That my friends is class.

Completely disagree, you wear a football shirt to show who you support, that you are pasiononate about you're football club, and you know they money goes to the club. There is only 1 of each of the above. Where as there are loads of football teams.

I show my support by turning up for matches and signing (occasionally). What difference does dressing lke the players make? I support my bosses decisions at work. That doesn't mean I am going to start wearing the same tie as him or have Chris put on the back of my work shirts.

I put it on a par with the kids spiderman outfits. It's all a bit sycophantic if you ask me. When you actually sit down and think about it do you not find football shirt wearing a bit weird?

Danny Baker picked up on this on 606 last night. Namely people wearing them abroad and how sad it is. I have to admit to having down it myself in the past, but don't think I would again. But, I do have a drawer full of old Albion shirts that I have barely worn and I will continue to buy them.

I wear my football shirts for lounging around in when I'm at home because they're comfortable and don't need ironing, also it stops my good clothes getting messed up. Very rarely wear them out though.

Yes, thats not the point. There are plenty of football teams in england and only your select few bosses. It not as though there are 24 bosses who decide things every week and whoever makes the best decisions wins. They show what team you support when you go to an away game, or go somewhere else in the country.
They also feel comfortable, and as I previously stated make money for the club. So all I can see is a win win situation.

What discount do STH's get?

10%

 

[Basil Fawlty]

I have all three shirts, plus wearing the away shirt really does grow on you.

 

[Gritt23]

I'm not getting one because I don't particularly like the design of this one.

 

[Whitterz]

Regarless of what it looks like, I try and buy new shirts when they come out. Not only is it a sign of which club the wearer supports, but its peace of mind to know that at least I put a fair few quid in the club kitty, even if I dont make all the games.

Every little helps

Don't normally wear it but have it hanging up on the wall in my cabin, (yes, strange I know).
Anyway, after the result last week I wore it with pride ashore in Miami; went into a store called "Mad About Soccer" in Bayside, & the guvnor of the place f***ing loved it!
He said to me, (imagine a latino accent) "Hey, Brighton man, cool shirt; you beat Man Ceety man, the worlds reechest club!"

f***ing quality shirt this year, but miss the SKINT logo.

I always have a current replica and I do tend to wear them a lot - I dress smart all week so wearing footie shirt and jeans at the weekend is lovely.

I got the away shirt this time, because after two years the home shits tend to look blue and off-white. Also I already have lots of blue and white striped tops, so fancied a change.
