When you see someone wearing last seasons top to a match, what do you think?

Nobody over the age of 15 should be wearing a replica shirt to a match anyway.

As long as it’s Claret and Blue then it gives me a warm glow

I've still got one of those, i'm wearing it now, it's the Endsleigh one, it's a bit worn now as you'd expect, but it's lasting well.

That design for those who don't remember it. :)

Not a lot.

It's a Burnley top at the end of the day.

I think thank the lord they're not wearing one of those silly coats with the goggles in the hood, and then continue with my day.

As long as it’s Claret and blue and got a Burnley badge on I don’t see a problem.

Mmm. So you do have a problem with people who wear away kits to games?

I don’t have a problem with people wearing any Burnley shirt.

Personally, I’ve never worn any football shirt.

Can't say I've thought about it. A Clarets shirt is a Clarets shirt. Not worn one to a game for years, namely because it's rarely warm enough to just wear a shirt at a match and I'm way too old and like my warmth too much to wear it over a sweater or jacket. It just doesn't look right for a middle aged man with a belly to wear a football shirt over a sweater.
I have been known to wear a Clarets shirt when in towns and cities other than ours though in warmer temperatures just to stamp a little bit of Burnley territory. Found Clarets in the most bizarre of places too. Was walking through Doncaster in a Clarets shirt a number of years back and got spotted by a fellow Claret. Walking through Nottingham the day after we'd beaten them 5-0 a few years back was fun. Always wore one in B*ackburn even when we were in Division 4.
