    Time to discuss a real and growing problem at Easter Road

    The jogging bottoms wearer starting to fill the Easter Road terraces. Completely undermining the sartorial masterclass of Jack Ross and his tailor-made suits.

    Not sure how to fix it. If you have an U18 season ticket then you're obviously exempt. If you're an adult and you're turning up in trackies then prove you've been to the gym before/after the game or be asked to leave? Something RG and LD will have to nip it in the bud before it becomes more infectious.

    Attire not befitting for Easter Road or the Leith area. Take that stuff to Gorgie or Glasgow.

    Grey marl jogging bottoms are the last word in fashion in our peripheral housing areas.

    You need a prostate like cast iron to get away with it. I favour black ones myself.

    I won't elaborate.

    At a slight tangent here. I was working in Castlemilk last week, apparently this is one of the poorer parts of Glasgow.

    I had to question that when I noticed a fellow bus passenger was wearing a high viz, over a yellow Stone Island jerkin.

    Used to be a working class thing to dress your best when not at work. Show a bit of pride and self respect.

    Not into slob wear at all.

    Next you will get people in their jammies turning up at games with their coats over them. An absolute guarantee.

    Nothing says I have no self respect more than leaving the house in jogging bottoms other than for sporting purposes ... running away from the polis does not count as a sporting activity

    Another huge probelm just now is fat blokes in skinny jeans. They aren't designed for you, the key word is 'skinny'.

    But the one that really winds me up is blokes walking about in shorts at this time of year. They must think the weather is mind over matter; that, if they tell themselves it's Greece in August, then it really is. I saw a guy in shorts walking his dog yesterday morning, when it must have been minus five.

    Jammie bottoms under your troos keep you toastie at matches when it's freezing. Yes, I speak from experience.

    Long time ago and only if you had money or robbed a shop. Not applicable to most working class youngsters.

    I am avowedly working class and always dressed in my best bib and tucker for games as a kid.

    Beneton jumper, Hugo Boss jeans and Adidas Gazelles.... all from hard earned Window Cleaning money!

    A number of 'gentlemen' in my age group wear trackie's to my local. I have told my wife to suffocate me in my sleep should I ever start to wear them anywhere other than in the house or around the garden.

    In bed in winter, if you don't have pyjamas. I might wear mine in the scratcher tonight, as it's Baltic.

    Black skinny jeans.
    Black Nike Vapormax.
    Black puffa jacket.
    No socks.

    The above is the staple of today's youth.

    If you look at the crowd in shots of 50s/60s football action they look dressed for work in shirts, ties and raincoats.
    I blame the Americans for destroying standards of dress and other things too.

    Late capitalism as well that has impoverished our youth. Pricing keeps the poor out of football. At ER we are seeing the better off of our class who can afford better clothes. In the cheap days of football and big crowds you saw a lot more poorly dressed fans. Now the odd one who gets to a game and does not have the correct dress code is pillored.

    I think you may be taking the thread a tad too seriously.

    Why is it as soon as a man, of any age, puts on a pair of grey joggers he suddenly thinks it's acceptable to claw his testicles in public? Particularly common among the young team but I've seen older guys at it to.

    If you are in public your hands should remain firmly outside your trousers.

    It's really a decision of convenience, when the jail sentence is handed down they can go straight to jail knowing they are already appropriately kitted out without worrying about packing a suitcase.

    The clawing testicles is probably a perfectly understandable reaction since their Staffy had been sleeping on said strides overnight.

    I agree, public genital fondling is never acceptable, not matter the hideous attire. Particularly prevalent amongst the younger generation, what's it all about?
