Correct. I remember sitting in Moldova and could hardly see the game for one. My pal pulled it out and gave the guy it back after the game. I don't think these guys that wear them realise that the Scotland fans behind them have a restricted view. The very least they could do is to take them off during the game.

Slide tackle Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Some of the things you see people wearing to the games are embarrassing, bucket hats are fine. Especially when there’s 50 year old men with glengarrys, kilt jackets or tops with bannockburn 1314 to a football game😂. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are totally embarassing. Some older guys dressed like that are an embarassment. Scotland top, pair of jeans for me. No need to say 'look at me'. They seem to think wearing these or having tattoos makes you more of a Scotsman. Trying to tell themselves I suppose. But each to their own.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sempre Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 I wear bucket hats to games (admittedly away games in sunnier climates as opposed to Scotland). No-one has ever complained I've spoiled their enjoyment of the game, so I'll probably just keep wearing them. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaundy Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Ordered my newest flower pot hat , been wearing them since my teens in the baking sun. Do wear my dads old baseball St Mirren caps too. On a roasting day I’ll soak the ‘bucket hat’ pop in the freezer for a bit and enjoy the temporary relief. Also, from the years of swimming I have sometimes endulged in then diving in and swimming with a bucket hat is fine. looking forward to next summer in Deutschland then my trip case will include a see you jimmy wig , two kilts (wet ones take a bit) face paints, flags and lots of other shite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaundy Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Gonna buy myself my first Scotland top in my puff. The white away from Saturday against Norway. never been one for no different new kits but did think the white kit at the weekend can only have helped. Coming from a believer that some of the sfa would have been asking for long sleeve pullover in traditional dark blue. do like the detail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glasgow jock Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 I sometimes wear a hat going to the Scotland games (depends on weather) but it would def be a Scotland bucket hat, way better and more practical than those daft wee hats with the massive feathers (even worse are the ones with the pin badges) think the lads / lassies that wear them call themselves "Footsoldiers" 😄😀😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marky Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 The biggest hat crime that hasn't even been mentioned on this thread, is wearing a hat (of any description) indoors. Grrrrrrrrrrr..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
