That photo of them all on the tube escalator is virtually iconic now - marvellous scenes

You clearly have no idea how bad a penguin smells.

A few years ago I went to Brentford vs Hartlepool, which was the last game of the season, and there were about 20 or more Hartlepool fans all dressed as Where's Wally.

I remember looking at them and wishing I was in there with them they needed a draw to stay up and were quite excited for most of the game. Needless to say, when the game finished (0-0 I think), they all went mental

What I loved about the escalator picture, was the other tube passengers concentrating on trying not to notice a hundred or so chanting Smurfs...

Football fans are the best. If I wasn't a football fan and didn't realise the fancy dress rule and I was on that tube

I'd be wondering what the hell was going on. Brilliant scenes.
