Personally I don't give a monkeys about what shirt I wear to what game, or maybe no shirt (I mean I will cover my pasty flab in something - but not in a Brighton shirt sometimes - like when I'm too fat to fit any)- but my 11 year old burbled something unintelligible at me the other day in relation to this and I think he meant to ask - is there some sort of unwritten rule that someone gives a toss about - about what to put on. E.g. match the expected away kit when away - home shirt at home.

Wear what you like as long as it’s decent. Anybody who cares what other people wear is probably your sons age. He would need to discuss it amongst his peers to find out what is relevant to them.

I always wear a scarf, never a shirt. It's a stupid habit to have got into. Think Burnley away a couple of seasons back particularly challenging.
Nearly died at Oldham away one August too. Should take it off in the summer really.

Not as far as I know, though I have noticed a steady decline in the variety of hats worn at Lewes FC games in my occasional visits. At least a dozen different types of hats on the terraces a decade ago, now it's beanie or flat cap and not much else. The trilby, fedora, pork pie, Panama, beret, military cap etc of years gone by are now a rarer sight. It being Lewes it may of course be a performance art metaphor for something yet to be revealed.

I remember that at Oldham, 2005? Leon Knight scored a pen, we debuted the all yellow shirt with just the black Seagull and Skint logo, no team badge? Yup, that was properly hot.

I often wear a t-shirt that looks a bit like the early 70s white and blue home kit but isn't.

Hope that helps.

Wear anything, as long as it isn't blue and red - it's the combination of abomination. Also, nothing with a bloody eagle on it...

There was a lot of BNP shit going on up there. Very weird atmosphere in the town. Posters everywhere. Just a general sense of a pretty bleak situation.

And weirdly, its also where I've been the COLDEST at a game!

December 1990. We got hammered (6-1?). Wilkins scored a consolation free kick towards the end.

I vary between three shirts usually. Shirt either carried or worn depending on how hot it is and same shirt is worn home and away until we lose, then the next shirt comes back into favour.

my son, however, is now one of those stone island jumper, jeans and Adidas trainer wearing sheep.

It’s made me cold just thinking about that game. Also got a right soaking at Oldham too, autumn ‘84. The place to go if you are a weather watcher.
