[Albion] What to wear

[London Irish]

No, wear your own thing. I have shirts I decide are "lucky" and then try to stick with them for a bit. That's about it.

Same here - the shirt worn to West Ham is going in the back of the wardrobe

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 reckon your the Mr Benn of the Albion World, all those shirts must a nightmare to decide what to wear

That was the hottest i've ever been at a football match too!

Blimey, what a contrast, Oldham in the ‘70’s was the coldest I’d ever experienced at a football match. Great pies though.
Got well warmed up at my girlfriend’s when we got back to her house in Stockport.
Happy days.

I always try and wear something blue/ blue & white - trousers, shirt socks, cap, but I have never worn a club shirt (apart from the one in my avatar when I was 9. Ordinary white shirt with blue stripes printed on from Wisden's in Duke Street THE Brighton sports emporium of the day).

Only Albion thing I wear to matches is a scarf. The same one since the 2004 play off final.

I tend to wear my lucky meat suit, a la Lady Gaga.

I often go for the meat too, particularly ham.

Thinking of turning veggie though.

I'm sure you managed to impress her

Nice shirt and v neck with black jeans - done

 

[Comrade Sam]

Always wear my lucky top until we lose, then wear my new lucky top etc.

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.

Boundary Park can indeed be one of the coldest grounds in the UK (maybe second only to Arbroath!) O went there one freezing afternoon on the late 60s early 70s while I was at Liverpool Uni. Ground nearly empty, no sign of any blue and white. Then, half way round the ground from where i was, I spotted a couple oh lads with blue and white scarves (that is proper scarves, like the ones your mum would knit for you - six inches blue, six inches white, six inches blue, six inches white, repeat and rinse until she ran out of wool or got pissed off). Anyway, I made ny way over to them and said I was impressed they'd made their way up from Brighton to watch their dire team on a horrible day like this.
"Nay" they said. "We're Burrry (difficult to write the way that is pronounced by the locals; all I can say (from first hand experience) is that when said by a pretty girl it is quite intoxicating!) - anyway, we're from Burrry, we just coom over t' hill to watch this shower of shite when Burrrrry are playing away!" I wonder if there were any brighton fans there that day!
We lost, of course. Either 2-0 or 3-0 - that was more or less the sandard score it seemed for every away much we played in the NW in thse years - or the ones I went to, at least!

What p1sses me off are pubs that insist no vests and dont understand cap sleave isnt a vest. Worse allow women to dress in vest tops of all sorts but stop men in vests.

Make sure you know who the opposition are well in advance and ensure you have a ' half and half scarf' as they are really cool and all proper fans appreciate them!

I have concluded it was my cap. Definitely the issue.

To be fair men in vests is not a good look - unless you holiday in Benidorm & have an arm full of tats.

Oldham away quite easily the coldest away match as well! FA cup tie 1990 (I think) went from a freezing but dry January day, to heaving down with rain, then hail and then blizzard within the space of 45 minutes. Never been as wet and cold in my life as that day

 

[Tubby Mondays]

That was the hottest i've ever been at a football match too!

Snap!

Its sexist that women can wear them not men and discriminative

I’ve got 115 Brighton shirts, so I normally decide on the day. Usually go for a 2011/12 “Vicente 15” Shirt recently, but love the Donatello 1998/99 shirt.
