It’s fancy dress season in European football and no one does it like the Brits. This was just a quick snap with my pocket camera during today’s match between the Baggies and the Magpies.
I have never before seen anyone wearing a balaclava shaped like a raw turkey.
West Bromwich Albion 3 – 1 Newcastle United












Eidheard,
Nobody in the United States gives a shit about soccer.
Eideard doesn’t give a shit about fools.
#2 – Or turkeys.
I think faxon is just plain wrong on this
#1 That’s ok. No-one in the world cares about hand-egg either.
Northern Men are right hard, -3 Celsius and not even wearing a t-shirt. although he does have a lot of blubber to protect him.
#1 He said football, That is as defined by nearly 95% of the planet. The game you are thinking of is not where a ball is moved around by someones foot most of the time.
Perhaps your game should be called something else – like American ‘football’.
#1 – you’re in for an unpleasant surprise:
Funny picture. I’ve seen chicken hats before, but never turkey balaclavas. That match was terrible, btw. So was Sunderland-West Ham afterwards.
Watching a GREAT match now – Monterrey vs Santos, Apertura final. watch it on Telemundo, shit’s off the hook!
A man with a chicken hat, standing next to a pig.
Ah, life on the farm…

(Should read “poster-child example…”).
#1 And nobody else cares about hand egg.
For the record, ‘soccer’ or ‘football’ is correct as the full name of the sport is soccer-football (as opposed to rugby-football).
As for tame football fans, what the NFL lacks in chants, it certainly seems to make up for in fancy costumes. But I’d prefer Millwall’s ‘Your going home in f**king ambulance’ chant to silly dress…
