Should the Blue and white stripes be worn by OAPs?

[The Oldman]

As an over 60 I always think that OAPs look odd wearing the stripes. Should we?

 

[Taybha]

wouldnt stop me go for it. i mean do you you feel odd wearing stripey jimjams? no difference

 

[Brovion]

I know I'm in a minority but I think replica shirts on any adult look a bit naff. Especially if said adult is a bit porky or yes, old.

Sorry!

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

Ofourse you should wear them!*



*my Dad is ofcourse exempt from the above statement

 

[Paxton Dazo]

Say 'NO' to replica shirts.

 

[murraymints4brighton]

Wear the old retro ones as the knew shirts look naff.

 

[Garage_Doors]

No they should not, it you would not look out of place on the pitch then yes. anyone else then no.

Young girls wearing them are exempt because them look nice in them:

If that OAP is playing football for the Albion then he should wear them with pride. Otherwise no, replica shirts on grown-ups a big no-no for me

 

[Emily's Mum]

Someone ought to tell that bird on the Sports section of the Argus website!

 

[SUIYHP]

I said yes, but Im wearing the club and country navy one rather than the current one. if you have a SKINT shirt, wear that one.

95 years later it's Russell Slade's grey and white army.

Probably looks like it needs a good iron.

If you oldies want to wear the stripes, go for it!

What is is with the aged of today?

I remember the good old days when old people used to wear a nice plain tweed shirt with a tie, and possibly a knitted cardy for the summer months of july and august when you don't need an anorak.
It's just not like the good old days

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Does anyone know when Albion replica shirts first became available? A long time after The Oldman started supporting the club, I guess.

 

[wigman]

Wear the stripes with pride no matter what your age .

 

[dougdeep]

No, even if you have a well toned body like mine.

1982 if memory serves me right.

and nothing wrong with old'uns wearing the stripes with pride. My mum does (STH) and she's 75

 

[Insider]

I like seeing our older fans wearing the stripes! I also like seeing all our fans wearing the older stripes, NOBO, TSB and the like...

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

we'll all be OAPs sooner or later.
