That's nothing, back in the 80's my mate's dad took us to palace to watch the derby and he stood in 6-8000 Brighton fans shouting for the wrong team. I still can't fathom how no-one took a swipe at him.

So I'm sat in row P of the East Upper, which is six rows closer than my normal seat, watching England take on New Zealand. Now I'll be honest, I've no idea of any of the players. So the pre match warm up and the teams are announced, still no ideas. Kick about over and the big flags are draped over the pitch. And here come the players. One team in White and one in Claret. One thing I do know about England is that they play in White!
For seven full minutes I supported the team in white and the more I think about it the more I'm convinced most of the crowd around me had no idea either and sat on the fence a bit.

Might have been a shorter post if you told us what you DID notice :moo:

It does show that women's football is totally over hyped for gender reasons.

One of the few things I know about New Zealand is that their football team are nicknamed the All-Whites.

The New Zealand women’s football team are nicknamed ‘Football Ferns’.
