My MOTHER used to, at Withdean if it was rainy, to dry her seat!

Not at all, no. I just find it very odd.

I would have hated this idea at 15 too. At that age, I would have thought it was REALLY important to look tough at the match, and fit in with the other 'tough' lads. And I would have really worried that the opposition fans might have seen our smiley fans with their glowsticks, and laughed at us...

Very much this :thumbsup:

I still don't get it - sorry. How can a stand full of fans, having a laugh at an away game 'damage a good reputation'? The blokes in Stone Island starting hand-bags in local pubs, or having a ruck on the train are the ones that will damage our reputation. (In some people's eyes I have that 100%...

If you look a little bit more closely, that stadium is far from full. The big stand is more than half empty - the glow sticks are what is making it look full.

I'm the same (only offering a different opinion). Not remotely bothered whether this happens or not - just confused why some are SO grimly against it. Some people's idea of an acceptable away crowd is 500 grim faced blokes in jeans and Stone Island jumpers. No colours, no women, no kids, no...

Terrific post. Great examples. Those things are EXACTLY the same. :clap2:

Yes, I know. Its still going to LOOK the same though, surely? People take this stuff WAY too seriously. Why does anyone give a toss what the opposition fans think? If you think its a laugh or would look good, do it. If you're not keen, don't join in. Dont waste your energy getting upset or...

:clap2:

Do you honestly think this looks shit?

Its a bit of fun, that's all. Can't see why anyone would be aggresively against it. I do see why Watford have said no though. The glowsticks work for about 15 minutes then go out. What are people going to do with them after that...

Because it needs to be really DARK to work, and Watford turn off all the lights in the stand.

This idea is WELL GAY. :safeway: I like it.
