I've decided to go for a nautical theme, nothing too outrageous and swashbuckling like Pirates of the Caribbean, rather just squarely in my tradition of understated class.
I grew a scrubby beard over Christmas, which the wife surprisingly liked and encouraged me to keep. As a result it's the first time I won't be clean shaven for a derby. I look a bit like an old salt, so I found a navy blue turtleneck lambs wool sweater, which I shall wear with a long ago purchased but seldom used Hugo Boss short length dark navy coat, replete with -you guessed it- silver anchor buttons.
Conservative black Armani jeans and a strong pair of brogues (a less flashy shoe than is my wont, but it's New Year and one must consider the elements) will complete the look. I'm tempted to flout the laws of the land and bring in a pewter hip flask containing a decent malt, but I shall make a late call on that one.
Allow me at this stage to wish my Hibernian brethren and cistern a wonderful 2014, and let's flush those unsightly bloodied turds into the sewer of oblivion - where they damn well belong!

As for the beard, I keep well clear of facial hair, and I'm sure the wife concurs. But I rather like the naval theme. So to break the tedium of the silent Hibs TV Xtra half time break, I'll be snacking on the last of the xmas pudding, complete with a soaking of best naval rum, in your honour.

Black Calvin Klien overcoat, very dark Diesel jeans, sturdy Jones shoes or Timberlands if it's pissing down. Nice green v-neck jersey and a white t-shirt and a recently purchased Duffer St George green scarf (bargain from the Debenhams sale).
I'll also be sporting my recently shorn and bleached hairdo (much to the amusement of my mates) and a rather smug grin after the match when we've humped them big time!

If this thread was running in the late eighties, the word casual would spring to mind?

As a nautical man myself im afraid its a similar pullover but with a duffel coat. Footwear will be black half boots similar to steaming bats as wore when aboard ship.

Navy coat and black jeans... Shambles Bob!
A hip flask is a must, however mines will contain a wee Rusty Nail to combat the unearthly chill that descends when the horde visit the Holy Ground.
