Wrong un. He's got a hat but has chosen for some reason to 'dof headdress ' and wave it. Hopefully the showsec ****s threw him out along with the other hattless reprobate shortly after this photo was taken.

Get ahead, Get a hat!! No wonder Denton's gone down the nick - "In 1907 the majority of the 16,428,000 felt hats made in England (worth £2,068,000) were made in Denton and Stockport. In 1921, the working population of Denton was 9,653 with about 41% of those people in occupations related to the hatting industry. The last hat factory in Denton closed in 1980."
@Bill 's carpets never quite compensated for the change in fashion!!

Apparently the mercury used in the making of the hats made the workers ill. Hence the expression "mad as a hatter", I don't know if it made them mad or just angry because they lived in Denton. :-)

There's always an exception in every crowd, above the B and O letters near the top of the pic is a hatless rebel. Wonder if he took home a new one after someone scored.

He's probably having a piss in it

I visited the Westlers factory once
I had it in my mind that they were a premium brand and it would be a state of the art facility
Fucking hell, it was grim

Visited a Mattesons factory when working for BT years ago. You'd be horrified to see what went on and what went in

I though you were a City fan? You'll be saying you've never had a Balti pie next.

Just to clarify matters, I’ve been going to City since 1959, I’ve only had 1 balti pie ever, bought for me by someone else (friend, West Ham fan) never again, utterly revolting. Possibly the worst thing I’ve ever tried. Was banned from the marital bed for days. Hate Indian food always makes me ill
