    Is it too early to start thinking about this?
    I'd be keen to see the away fans going as Samurai, in honour of Maya.
    No swords, obviously, but maybe a bandanna with the Japanese "Rising Sun" emblem.
    Those that could source a Samurai outfit, would be more than welcome.

    Maya is a good shout....or fans could come as tramps in honour of Manolo. :)

    I'd pay to see @Ian Thumwood dressed in tribute to Claude :)

    The problem with French clothes:-

    1. The beret would have to be a Kangol for me to want to wear it.

    2. The sizes are generally too small and I would not want anything XXL in my wardrobe.

    I think everyone should copy Puel's strange finger rubbing behaviour....the resulting low hum would certainly disconcert the opposition. :)

    Always found fancy dress on the last away game a little cringey,but maybe it's just me.

    Might add an extra air of excitement as we finish in 9th.
    Can't complain too much but the last 2 seasons have had very exciting run ins due to euro qualification.

    Wouldn't that be 'cultural misappropriation!? You'd probably get arrested for that nowadays:angel:.

    If the current mood is anything to go by, funeral apparel would be appropriate. <devil>

    How soon we forget....how long ago was that Cup Final? Though I get your point...fans should wear clothes appropriate to their mood. A bunch of Grim Reapers separated by groups of fans dressed as flowers and butterflies. My mood: a mildly depressed daffodil.*

    *With apologies to Helen if that is cultural appropriation.

    How many tam o' shanters and ginger wigs have people still got lying around.? People could wear them just because. :)

    Obviously fans should show their affection for M. Puel by wearing berets and hooped shirts and carrying strings of onions, which is, as everyone knows, the dress of choice for all French people.

    Will people have to cycle to Middlesbrough, as that is the way that all French people travel :)

    Just one though, as they'll need the other hand to chain smoke Gauloise with.
