I'm 60 in September, and I wouldn't be seen dead in City replica shirt in public. I'm nearly bald with a beer and bad diet induced tummy, and I look bloody tragic in one. Okay, I admit I buy a new City shirt when a new kit is launched, but I wear them these days to potter around the house and garden. In public, I wear one of my many smart City designer T shirts available from the club shop, they carry the same badge as the replic shirts anyway, they fit me better and hide the lumps! and to me, thats the important thing. Next time you're in Carrow Road, look around at the old farts, gamely trying to squeeze into their replica's, don't laugh at them, all us old boys have been there..........and so will the current youngsters too one day!. Replica shirts is a young mans game in my opinion, ie under 35.  Agreed?.    Report

I love wearing mine around London.......but those ones made specifically for woman are very nice, shame my girlfriend won't be seen dead in one!    Report

Is there a lower age-limit as well Wiz? Seems that a baby could not run around for 90 minutes yet there are several NCFC fan parents who will kit thier kids in them. Wear what you like I say, as long as it has the canary on it.....   What does get me, however, is the amount of kids at my son's school sporting Chelsea, Man. Utd and Liverpool sports bags.....I feel sorry for the little Glory Hunters.    Report

I personally like to see a woman in an xl mans replica shirt and nothing else, sunday morning pottering about before they get dressed.  Lovely...........

See your point Wiz but think it should only apply to "big" premier clubs - supporting a team thats a bit "off the radar" means shirts should be worn by everyone, all of the time. Spread the word of NCFC. I know if I see a canary in London it makes me smile and theyre an instant friend for life! I'm an unemployed football manager working on an oil rig - get me out of here!    Report

I wear my Green Lotus '04 away in Ipswich all the time, granted I often have a tank top on however the colours are still visible and often get rumbled and I love it. My girlfriend wears Thomas Helveg match worn shorts in bed and it's great :-) ;-) Love her I have a club tie (1999) that I wear to work that has the crest all over it but subtly, over 2000 customers see it a week - Love it Special mention to all the Canaries in Ipswich on match days walking through the town to get to the train station - Love it. ...not a binner, just a guerilla canary living in Ipswich town centre (village square) showing my pink un to the Robby Bobson statue    Report

While i believe in freedom of choice and the right to do what you want i agree that middle aged men and older in replica shirts do look a bit sad!!  I don't know why this is it's just one of those things.  Although Wiz i do have to say you focus too much on the negative, why don't you talk about football fans that look good in their kits like this..........................http://www.rascott.com/Blog%20Archive/viral_stripslide06.jpg Gunn Culverhouse Bowen Butterworth Bruce Fox Huckerby Crook Townsend Sutton Robins    Report
