Wearing Colours to West Ham

Last time we played at West Ham, I received advice from several different sources that Upton Park was`nt the safest place to visit for an away fan and it would be sensible not to wear colours up there. I did`nt and I have to say that I probably would`nt have felt entirely comfortable if I had. A lot of Albion fans did`nt. This time we are going up in much greater numbers (not that that is any guarantee of safety!) and I`m tempted to risk it. Does anyone else have a view on this?.

Stinky Bridge is an authority on colour schemes for away games.

I wore colours for the last 'Butters winner' visit and had no problems at all

How about getting 5000 t-shirts printed up?

i'll be sitting with appy ammers so don't think wearing the stripes (or the white) would be one of my best ideas. God i hope i don't make a noise WHEN we score

It doesn't look like I am going to get a ticket in the Brighton end, so I will hopefully be frequenting the 'Ammers section also.

I will make sure I take some sushi eel rolls and shout some homosexual obscenities at the Brighton faithful. "Oi you, young man. Come hither you homsexual, you are going to be a loaf of bread"

I went on the tube and wore colours and had no end of trouble both before and after the game.

I got loads of needle from West Ham fans on the train back to Essex after the last one, no problems actually in London.

I went into the WHU members' bar after the last game in my stripes. Got some grizzly looks, but came out alive :)
 




Don't take the tube! I did that last time and was f***ing terrified!

If I can get a ticket it will be in the Home end, and as I will be travelling home in the opposite direction of most Albion fans (and the same directions as a significant number of the Irons) I will most definitely not be wearing the shirt !

Where is going to be safe to drink before the game?

A friend of mine suggested the mouth, then down the throat and into the stomach.
What does everyone else think?

I'm not sure what colours I'm going to wear yet. Probably something magenta.

A useful dietary tip is to dribble 5% of the beer down the side of your mouth, down your chin and down your neck. It has been proven to help lose wieight.

I cant remember what colour I wore last time. It might have been blue. Or black. As its winter I would think I will probably wear something black again. Or blue. Was it winter last time? If it was autumn I would have worn an autumnal colour like Brown or yellow. Im pretty sure I had black plimsols on. But I might be wrong, they might have been white.
