Fancy Dress

Norbert666 · 23 Apr 2006 at 10:03

My work annual party is coming up.

It's fancy dress each year. This year the theme is football or anything to do with football.

Being from Holland, I thought I might go in the Holland kit to annoy everyone else. Can someone please tell me what it looks like? (I thought it was orange, but when I looked on ebay for a cheap replica, there are orange ones, white, black, black & white...). Yeah I know, I know nothing about football!

What about a hooligan? I do have a shaved head...

Or if anyone can think of a better idea? It can be anything related (no matter how loosely) to football.

Orange shirt, white shorts, orange socks

You could go as the Scotland team and just stay at home.

Don't come home too soon always made me laugh. Right vote of confidence that is.

Good man, I'm proud of you

What is the black and white one I've seen? Is that not correct?

The only ones I remember are the dodgy 80's Umbro ones that had orange and white bits all over, the full orange one and the white one with the orange piping around it. Don't remember a black and white one (not saying it isn't a Holland top, just don't remember it)

[edit]Actually, I think I may remember a black and white one but I think it was quarters rather than stripes?

I just saw this and actually laughed out loud:

Ruud Gullit soundslike a plan. That will be well funny...

Just need to find the wig, tash and shirt etc...

EDIT - how/where will I find an orange shirt with Gullit written on the back?

The black and white shirt was the Nike Anit-Racism shirt, was only worn for one match. Brazil and various other clubs had them, i have got a Brazil one

Are football shirts supposed to have collars or not?

I thought they didn't but then I saw this , and it says it's official?

Tru · 23 Apr 2006 at 10:51

Depends entirely on the design.

That is an official top but I prefer ones with no collar.

Pop down Lakeside, on the third floor theres a t-shirt printing shop, they do football type shirts where you can have what you want printed on them (for stag do's etc).

I know the one. Good thinking. Thanks

EDIT - they actually sell the shirts too? or just do printing?

Conscript · 23 Apr 2006 at 11:15

They sell shirts as well, AFAIK. Well, tee shirts etc at least, not sure about footy shirts.

They do sell various shirts but not sure if they have any orange ones but they will print on your own shirt if you take it in.
