I have worn a replica shirt since I started buying them for my Sons and going to games together. As they are now older and possibly won't wear them as often, neither will I. It was a way of us all doing the same thing together I suppose. That wasn't my point.
I was the same 20 years ago but in the late 90s every kid who didn't have a dad that was an ardent fan of any club seemed to drift to Arsenal. I don't think one kid in my primary school in Radlett supported Watford and I was one of two QPR fans from memory. You can't really blame kids for following the crowd and often they will have to be forced into doing something.
Good for you for not following the crowd and being an R. Nice one, You'd have thought kids would want to be different and stand out by following a club that no one else did. Sheep as kids turn into sheep as adults sadly.
Whether you love the kit or loath it, don't like wearing the kit to matches or wear it everyday you can match or no match...recently I have a new found love for our kit. Few things will ever make me happier than the the day, about two weeks ago, I dressed my son in this... I bought him home from hospital today, and look forward to bringing him to Loftus Road in the future.
I thought that a panel at the back was compulsory on the hooped shirt if we were in the Premier and that the design needed to go in while we were still there. Imagine if it had been leaked that we had agreed the hooped shirts for the Championship while we still had a chance of survival.
