Booooooo...
 
Yes, it was only a pre-season game, but far too few shirts off for my liking.
 
Let no the cold, wind and rain deter you. Nor that fat man gut.
 
Shirts off for the Phoenix god-damnit!
 
Best be warned...

Sorry you can scream and whine all you want, but the shirts off call has to be saved for special performances in my book. If you take them off every week then it becomes the norm and you look like a fool.
In saying that its good to see that Coxey has been eating well in the off season although the belly button ring is a concern mate!

So did I. 

We're bringing up a nation of pansies according to any remotely contoversial media figure so it's our job to harden them up.  I had 5 around me, one had his shirt off (no prizes for guessing who) and the others will have developed resilience from being surrounded by me, Coxey, Smith, Radioman and Ballane wobbling away.


How's my driving? - Whine here

HTFU Smarah.....

I'm all for getting shirts off every time we're ahead at home with 10 to go......thats the tradition and I'm looking forward to it happening often and plenty this season.

Eating well, drinking well and living well - t'was a summer of loooove (well a love of food and beer anyway!)!! 

Fitz, I'm just trying to keep up with you.....

I reckon Big Dunc would have the Ban Stick out quicker than you can say 'stop winning, I hate giving you guys money each week'.

I'd like to think that everyone (including the gals) get involved too, seems a bit on the nose that the women are hassling the lads for not swinging the shirts. YF is an equal opportunity club after all lol

uppercut. You should be looking forward to taking your shirt off - knowing that the team are prob going to win.  How can you look a fool by celebrating winning?

From Wikipedia ....
"Yellow Fever are creating many traditions of their own, the most notable being taking your shirt off if the Phoenix are winning with 10 minutes to go. "
 
If it's in Wikipedia, it must be right (OK, which one of you wrote that?).  Nothing about "but only on really important special ocasions".  If we are winning with 10 to go, then it's shirts off, and quite frankly if we get to do it every home game this season, what a season!  That's not boring, that's special!
 
(although in fairness, on Sunday some of us may have been holding back - you don't won't to reveal all your new formations to the opposition pre-season!)
 
 

I know, I know, its serious!

I'm going to interpret it as:
  • When we're winning by at least two (no point getting them off if there's an equaliser!)
  • and the temperature is at least 20 degrees,
  • and I've had the critical amount of alcohol ...

You celebrate winning WHEN YOU'VE WON. And yes, you do look like a fool when you celebrate winning before you've won, then you don't win.

there's some faith involved. otherwise, what, shirts offs as you walk home/to the pub?
