Magic hats for Chessy?

Why not I say. To make the occasion especially magical, I will start the day by asking the Missus if I can see her Wizards Sleeve, before I get up to a magical Wizard bacon and eggs. I will then put on my magic Jack the Hat hat on before I will magically make half a dozen pints of booze disappear after i myself have magically disappeared inside an alehouse. After watching the Wizards make magic at the Lane, I will go home, watch a bit of Gandalf perform magic wi mI box set, before I magically wake up in another bed after being booted out for snoring. It's gunna be magic.

No mate. All tickets long gone before it even crossed my mind. Are the hats part of the dress for MK then?

It has been mentioned and those who shudder at fancy dress may well do hats.
 
Where can I get a legit one? The only ones I can find have all advertised being 'magic' hats but every time I attempt to header a brick I end up in a & e.

I've attempted to return them and accused them of false advertising but apparently I don't have a case. It's an absolute scam.

If any of you have purchased one of these 'magic' hats then please make sure they're the real McCoy before attempting anything magical. The fake ones don't have an approved magic tag, and the stardust used on them isn't in fact real stardust, but cheap glitter. The easiest way to know if it's real is to put some on your finger and taste it, the real stuff tastes like a Toblerone.

Just a heads up.
 
I think the best match I've ever witnessed with fans in Fancy Dress was definitely the Darlington match. There was such a variety of costumes and characters - it was hilarious! Batman, Robin, Superman, Bugs Bunny, Pirates, Animals, Arabs, Genies, Policemen, Nurses, Politicians, Dracula, Cowboys, Indians, Roman Gladiators, Pop Stars etc. etc. etc.

That was my younger generation - a time when there wasn't such a thing as Facebook or Twitter or even mobile phones and internet forums. People weren't so "connected" and so you had a lot of spontaneity and original ideas when it came to things like Fancy Dress for an end of season game.

Things are different now - I accept that. And things are better now in many ways. But one thing I think is worse, is that the ease with which we can communicate very widely and very quickly with others, allows a few people to quickly influence a majority - and that kills originality imo.

So, we have people on here trying to suggest "a theme" for Fancy Dress. They want us all to go as the same thing. Whether that's because it makes them feel more self-confident I don't know - but frankly I think that's pretty boring.

I hope we've not lost our originality altogether and that we won't have 7,500 Blades there all in the same Fancy Dress. Otherwise, it's not really "Fancy Dress" at all - it's "Uniform". And it's nowhere near as much fun!
 
I've got a special daddy daughter day today, she's going to love going from fancy dress shop to fancy dress shop trying to hunt down the perfect magic hat.:rolleyes:
I don't want it to be a wizzard's but a witch one seems a bit to camp.
Champagne problems.

For me it had to be Bristol City away in 89. We were on the away end and the Blades had part of the stand near us but Bristol's boys kept having a pop at small groups of isolated Blades in the middle. Cue a dozen Santas climbing over seats to 'help'.

It all kicked off in the park after and by then Superman and a few others joined it too. What a mad day.

There's something surreal about big burly blokes in fancy dress getting stuck in .....

Was that the play-off game where we lost 2-0?

I went too.
Got off the coach and someone had a massive box of cardboard Kentucky Fried Chicken hats.
I wore one with a few 100 others, looked really funny at the time, they were red, so the right colour.

Agree the police escort marching back to the coaches on the road next to the park.
There were all sorts of running battles in the park with Bristol and United hooligans.

It really doesn't get any better than a dozen Santa's scrapping on the pitch UTB
 



I'm not wearing one but I am going to tell anybody who asks that I am wearing one, you just can't see it because it's......

No it was the end of the next season when we had to not loose 9-0. With only one sub at that time, Basset named a goalie (Benstead?) on the bench. Having drawn at Wolves we were up and this just confirmed it.

As front seat passenger I had the important job for the last few miles home, of standing out of the sunroof with a Blades flag.

Back to BDTBL and mobbing the team in the car park. Happy days indeed.
 
Yes Bristol certainly had a go at the Blades sitting in the stand, ended up with United fans running Bristol on their own pitch and the game was stopped for 10 minutes with police horses on the pitch to stop the fighting. Carried on after the game in the park from what I saw Bristol took a pasting in the end, totally deserved after attacking the Blades sat in the main stand
 
Anyone going in on the tram for the chezzy game next Sunday morning??

Pretty much what happened. It was payback for the previous season where they played the Billy big bollox when there weren't many Utd lads about and it was a bit naughty. They got their cumuppence that day a season later. I remember it well as i was in the park post match. ;)
