This is funny actually.
Wore my 95/96 shirt out and about yesterday and 3 times I was yelled at "Get that shit off" or "What you wearing that for man" etc. Couldn't tell whether they were serious or joking, either way they should fuck off. I'll wear the shirt, and I'll wear it proudly for fucks sake, what do they expect me to suddenly become ashamed of my team and of my area just because we were relegated, fuck off man.
I agree with the original post, wear our colours and wear them with pride. Newcastle are our club no matter how shit we are or what division we are in!
