Half & Half Scarves Poll

[Eccles Blue]

The club have got bigger fish to fry, fans should take the initiative.

Scumbag street hawkers selling this stuff should be battered and robbed to dissuade them from returning. “Neutrals” wearing the scarves should be spared the initial violence but left in no doubt that should they subsequently don the scarf a painful moment of reckoning will arrive.

Blimey, what a thing to get your knickers in a twist about. There are far more important things to worry about than half and half scarves for goodness sake.
And nothing, to my mind, is ever an excuse for violence.

I don’t mind if a non League or lower division side gets a cup game against a top side, otherwise they are just naff

Picture Eammon Holmes sat in our seats at the derby wearing a half and half scarf .... now tell me with a straight face you wouldn't set about him with your handbag

Plus can you imagine an 84 year old woman trying to sort out certain parts of a man's anatomy??? ;-)

Oh him I would sort out with something..... but I wouldn't sully my handbag. ;-)

For an obscure European or cup tie I kind of get it.

Say a once in a lifetime match against some team from Kazakhstan in the Europa league or an FA Cup match against the dog and partridge Sunday league team etc. As a memento for a memorable one off it’s fine.

But there’s no need for say City v Everton when we play them at least twice a year.

I meant not an opposition shirt of course. Don't pretend not to understand me.....;-) it is only a tongue in cheek post anyway as I wouldn't wear a half and half scarf but I hate anything to do with BULLYING!

Ok, fair enough. I was just trying to be polite.

What's the scarf got to do with it in that scenario?

In my view Half and Half scarves are abhorrent and from what I see in comments for many others to, Spurs have banned them and also WHU for the game at the London stadium last weekend

Ive spoken to a few stewards about them and they also dislike seeing them as a potential safety issue, being an option for away fans to wear their colors when sat in the home areas

I decided to write to the club to see if they could consider banning them, for the very least for high-profile games but, preferably permanently. I thought my appeal to them would carry more weight if, I could quote a poll

Please vote as you see fit

Don't mind them being sold - bought a few for my daughter from memorable Euro away trips.
The wearing is another matter entirely - buy it but ffs don't wear it, take it home and stick it on the wall (or wherever you choose)

Yup, memorabilia for a youngsters bedroom.
I don’t like the idea of banning anything. We live in a free country.

The only half & half scarf acceptable at City

It’s the half and half scarf wearers at the derby that winds me up.

Why would you wear a scarf where half of it is red and has Unit*d printed on it.

Totally totally wrong.

I think I’d prefer it if they banned the light show. Particularly when it’s got AC fuckin’ DC on in the background.

Acdc best band in all the land and all the world! Need more songs played at the stadium!!!

The thing with half and half scarves is that they represent the way the game is changing from fanbases to customers.

 

[NJMCFC184]

Kids shouldn't wear them but adults who do are wierd. Check their hard drives please

 

[Gremlin]

For the tourists - it's a nice momento. For the rest of us 'legacy' fans - definitely not. However, life's too short to get excited about it.

With the exception of City/United half and half scarves - they should all be burnt in fire, then the sellers burnt in fire, then all of their offspring for the next 10 generations so that such abominations shall never again be seen on God's green earth.
