Sods Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 Yeah not a fan of the wearing shirts either, cringe worthy think its the sponsorship of topps tiles. When you look at Uniteds away support it looks class. I dont mind the scarfs though, il let people of for that.
ASH17LCFC Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 I dont know how those sort of people can take themselves seriously.I mean, its an embarrassment. True, like thinking your black and american really.
Bert Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 True, like thinking your black and american really.
JakeShingler Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 True, like thinking your black and american really. fooking el that was a good un
Floating Fox Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 True, like thinking your black and american really. Ash at his best there.
Poakey Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 True, like thinking your black and american really. Ace!!!
Alexikokopops Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 Who is that tiny person holding a pint? He looks liek he's got about 12 more years to go before he can legally drink it. He's the only one with a pint though which just makes it a little bit weirder to be honest True, like thinking your black and american really.
Shrenchel Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 I can understand people not wearing them because of the price but at least a scarf or a blue t shirt shows a little support.But we all know why people don't wear shirts and team colours. Danny dyer wannabes. In foreign countries they dont care about there image and you see them draped in flags etc. lovely British terrace culture has been around from long before Danny Dyer was born mate. Young lads have been wearing casual fashions instead of the team colours since the 60s. Then again, we've pissed away most of our other footballing traditions. Might as well all go and get decked out in a picture of a tile with arms wearing a crown.

Fosse Boy Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 This thread's getting a bit too pwopa nawtee for my liking... Here you go lads, have a good old jizz over that.
Daggers Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 British terrace culture Looking like a chav twat is part of British terrace culture is it? That appearance has nothing to do with football; most people wearing a City shirt at a game won't be wandering off to work in it on a Monday morning but your chav will be down the UB office in his same coat or covering his face in the same scarf as he twocks another car. "Casual" clothing did not make an appearance in the 60's (as an identifiable form of dressing on the terraces in place of replica kits) because replica kits weren't available in the 60's...and neither was "Casual" clothing. During the early 70's dress simply reflected popular culture at the time - and then through into the early 80's. It wasn't until then that an identifiable look was associated with hooliganism - and I use that term because I'm buggered if I understand what you mean by "British terrace culture" in this context. To me it has piss all to do with clothes and more to do with singing loudly for the whole match, not booing your own team and intelligent humour - things that are as good as lost to the modern game.

I hate knobs turning football into fighting. Nothing to do with this club.

Some of the casual clothing is nice though and i'd much rather spend £50 on a nice polo shirt than spend £40 on a really cr@p piece of nylon with topps tiles on the front. Like it or not casuals have become a part of terrace culture/history - the working class kid decked out in the latest top labels etc. I admit now every idiot wearing stone island cos it looks hard is sad but some of the casual clothing is good
Fez of Mahrez Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 Say what you want about replica shirts but I'd rather go to matches dressed as Filbert Fox than look anything like any of the kids in that photo. Looks like a mobile Crimewatch re-enaction tour.

Yeah the atmosphere and the humour has been lost from our support and others but that's where the attitude of the modern fan is so hypocrtical. People reminsce about the cracking atmosphere in the kop at Filbo but loads of the lads in there that helped make it what it was were young lads going to the games together, getting on the beers, wearing the clothes that working class lads of the time wore. Pretty much just like 'chavs' the everyone likes to demonise these days.
lcfc_jme Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 so do I, so does Joe now, you'll join us soon.'kin shirters! Keele Services. Just because I will not wear a replica shirt to games, does not make me a chav. I dress nothing like those in the photo. Chavs and shirters. Poor form indeed.

But why not a blue shirt? Or a scarf, just something with some home colours to make the satdium look good. This is how it should be done

Finnegan Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 Who gives a fook what you look like? It's a fucking football match not a fashion parade. I got given a city away shirt for Christmas last year and I'm hardly going to wear it around town, am I? So I wear it to games. It's a sign of support (and a bit of respect for the person who gev' it me!)
Edmund Posted 12 January 2009 Posted 12 January 2009 Look at Liverpool and Man United away attendances, see if they look anything like that Liverpool picture you posted or Old Trafford. whats your point? im not saying that is how it is, im just saying that is how it should be done in an ideal world. shame we havn't got that european culture here. and that also goes in terms of vocal support.
