    All scarves are out of stock on Tiger Leisure's website.

    This is going well...

    If it was the League or FA Cup final, they're fine (as a memento, never to be worn). But when you have them for fifth-round replays with Brighton and Hove Albion, you're going a bit too far.

    As a kid, I remember some people wearing half and half hats.

    Liverpool/Celtic.

    Aberdeen and someone too.

    Actually, thinking on, sure one of them features in The Firm - but it's been years since I've seen it so can't recall exactly.

    No mention of Wembley on Tiger Leisure, meanwhile our League One opponents are already advertising FA Cup merchandise coming soon on SUFC Direct...

    In the early seventies some daft types on Bunkers wore half Liverpool and Celtic hats. Presumably the same as stood there singing Rangers/Celtic. Their modern equivalent is probably people who think singing "We're the left side...we're the right side" is something infra dig.

    No mention of anything in stock either it would seem, what an embarrassing situation.

    "Hull City Tigers" t-shirts are on sale now for some reason though, only £7.99 in all sizes. Get them quick.

    That sounds about right as I recall these hats being hand-me-downs from older siblings.

    Although, the Aberdeen one must have been more recent. 80s I'm guessing due to their success in th early part.

    Think i might grab one when the FA turn this silly idea down for posterity's sake.

    Like Hinchliffe's son's City crest, it is a yardstick of a low spot in our history.

    Traditional ones would be confiscated as they were heavy and would be considered potentially lethal weapons. And they actually made quite a racket and would traumatise kiddies.

    It's an FA Cup semi-final, only the second time we've ever been to Wembley and we might not win it, it would be sensible to take advantage of this opportunity.

    Where do these rugby league fans get their half and half car stickers from? Virtually every car I follow (and I follow a lot) has a Fc and Liverpool/Chelsea/man utd/leeds/spurs/Newcastle/etc etc take your pick car sticker alongside a fc sticker and the latest 'Keep the Faith' fc sticker which pinoccio pearson stole from us.

    Every FC season pass holder was given a free 'Keep The Faith' - the slogan behind this seasons pass promotion - car sticker when they collected their season pass.
