Jon Dahl Tomasson - Sweden coach

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

I used to laugh at old photos of Stanley Mathews playing in shorts flapping around his knees. I never thought for one minute they’d make a comeback.

shorter shorts are out of date now. 

All of my shorts are as you called them bench shorts

I'm a short shorts kinda guy very in.

Short shorts above ankle white socks and white trainers, with a oversized T

Oh and by the way - get rid of those beach shorts Jon, they look awful. The shorter shorts that the women players wear are miles better.

His todger is miles too big to wear short shorts

Sounds horrific...🥺

I accept my days of being a dedicated follower of fashion are long gone though...

Me too, although I try and get the white trainers a little less white as soon as I can.

That makes your legs look very short. I’m only 5’ 8” so I need to look taller any way I can.

There’s a photograph of Bill Eckersley , Rovers and England left back of the 1950’s, taken after training at Ewood. Bill was a notorious practical joker apparently. He sat amongst a group of players on the boundary wall In front of  the old main stand.

I’ve seen this photo loads of times over the years and I never saw anything unusual previously . Then I saw what must be the uncensored original version on the internet. Bill is wearing loose floppy black shorts and he’s pulled one leg of the shorts up a bit and you can clearly see his todger. You can tell he did it deliberately. On all the other photos it’s blacked out to blend in with his shorts.

Hahaha thankfully not a chav or the type to be materialistic around designers. If I want it I'll buy it, but have no interest in it.

Oh dear. You don’t let your wife buy your clothes do you by any chance ?

Some trend I’ve noticed with young uns is wearing white sweat socks pulled right up with sandals (sliders) the sort of carry on my sister and I mercilessly teased our old man about when we were younger seems to be high fashion with the current yoof. That said they also wear handbags and bum bags. Weird bunch.
