Bristol Rovers fans celebrated their final home match of the season by dressing up as pirates - before being pillaged 3-0 by Norwich City.
Now Canaries fans are preparing their own last-day dress-up.
Hundreds of the team's followers are preparing to copy the usual match-day dress code of their hero, manager Paul Lambert.

When Carlisle United come to Carrow Road tomorrow, Lambert's admirers will sport tracksuit trousers tucked into football socks, and a black sweatshirt over a polo shirt with the collar tucked up.
The fancy dress is a homage to the extraordinarily successful City manager, who took the helm in August, soon after leading Colchester United to a 7-1 win at Carrow Road on the opening day of the season.
