invergowrie arab Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Most people give up dressing as a fireman or policeman at about 5. You get about an extra 10 years to stop dressing up as a footballer. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hearthammer Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Was away abroad when Scotland drew 2 - 2 with Ingurland and wore my vintage 1978 Scotland top on the day to watch it in the sports bar. Similarly, if the rugby is on whenever i'm away and Scotland are playing, i'll wear my Scotland rugby away top for the game. i never wear them unless we're playing. I have 3 cracking SRU polo tops that are smart/dressy and will wear them out at night when no game is on. Football tops - aye even my Pars top - never. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offence but the type that wears a rugby polo shirt on a night out is the worst type of c**t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hearthammer Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Each to their own. They are smart/dressy with the rugby badge or logo as discreet as it can be. Its a quality polo top - not a "look at me- im a Celtic/New Rangers/Aberdeen die hard" type of xxxl football top. No offence taken mi amigo/amiga 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly why i said "Each to their own". However, i hate seeing football tops when i'm away that are purely worn (seems for 7/10/14 days consecutively) for displays of XXXL fanaticism. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Terrapin Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 (edited) Up there with taking a Sports Direct carrier bag as hand luggage. Scummery of the highest order. The only good thing about it is you know who to avoid from the offset. Edited August 23, 2019 by Joe Terrapin spelling 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpetmonster Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I do use an ancient - God knows what year, Diadora and I bought it about 12 years ago - Scotland top for outdoor swimming in hot places. I don't need the sunburn and the rest of the place doesn't need to see my moobs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Ferguson's Hat Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I'm absolutely ripped so I usually just walk around topless and tuck my Clyde shirt into the back of my tiny shorts. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As i previously said, the polo tops (not football strips) are smart/casual/dressy and look like - a polo top !!!!! A football top, in my opinion, is like wearing a part of a uniform that is there to display your die hard/loyal /staunch "look at me, i'm a big fan, so ahm urr" type of image. To a Scotland game - definitely, but as a casual top . . . . . . . Please, its "rugby" and not your "rugger" anglicised guff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anybody said football related stuff isn't Ok - it was specifically football tops we were discussing. I reckon a nice football team polo top would be OK in many situations. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albertlegend Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 On holiday this year, there was an old guy must have been in his late 60's wore something celtic every night of the holiday. No football tops but always a celtic polo shirt or a treble treble t shirt or some such. I just cant get my head round it. Why do you feel the need to tell everyone what team you support every night of the holiday. Have you nothing else going on in your life??? Football strips are for lying about the house in or playing 5s unless your 12. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
