Because you are going to the football and not a wedding?

I renew my Albion marriage vows every time I enter the AMEX :smile:

Haha. Fair enough. But why can't people just be allowed to wear what they want? Isn't a dress code a form of manipulation?

I hear you, but I'm probably the wrong person to discuss this with. If I'm given any option to dress up I tend to take it. I quite like dressing up and going out.

Personally think the dress code in1901 is total nonsense. And banning replica shirts is the biggest nonsense of them all.

I haven't worn a replica shirt to a match for a long time because middle aged men generally look rubbish in them but I have just ordered the 78 replica shirt which will do me fine.

The club have confirmed for hopefully ! the last 2 home games of the season.

I've always thought walking around with a replica team shirt on a bit silly at my age ( late 30's ) but think I'll buy one just for the next couple of games,

Are you ready H lounge ?

Hopefully they have some for your sake. Have been told no black shirts (other than small) available till next season.

Agree that middle aged men should not wear football shirts (certainly not full kit Reading fan last season) but have been wearing my retro 70's stripes to home games (cotton not plastic) for the last 2 seasons and have managed to get over the shame. I am 56!
Went to meet daughter in Brighton on Sunday, and after the momentous results of Saturday almost wore my stripes thinking the town would be thick with them. Fortunately I didn't. I only saw a couple of kids in stripes and would have hideously embarrassed my daughter.

Terrible idea...you need to keep up appearances!

Get back to your cardigans and quiet demeanour.

If I were rich enough to be a 1901 elite I would wear what I damn well liked.

Then sir you would have paid a lot of money for your 1901 ticket without the ability to enter the lounge or watch the match. Regularly supporters are turned away due to not meeting the dress code I'm interested to know why you would be treated any differently

I don't wear colours to a match. Only for playing football in.. 1901 has stupid rules - shoes but no collar. I didn't realise no football shirts was another - at a football match Ffs!

Were it me, I would play it respectably safe and sport a tailored blazer - accessorised with a club tie and an Albion scarf, as opposed to the items shown...
