Stormtroopers it is according to the OS.

Let's hope nobody ruins the day by going as the SS.

I can see why it took a year now, the thought process of how polyester will not chaff your bollocks is a master stroke, I take back all of my reservations!

Ah bollocks, they don`t do fat lad sizes sadx

I imagine it'll resemble something like this.

The stay puff marshmallow man isn't far off just get that instead nobody will notice a bit more pricey but you are getting more material;

If anyone thinks I'm going to wear a frock everyone else is wearing, they're very mistaken.

The marshmallow man is a good shout, if you sit right in the middle of the FDE, folk in the Plymouth End probably wont even notice the difference.

Or I could wear a red latex outfit and from their end it would look like the Japanese flag :laughing-rolling:

It's good day for those with football banning orders to turn up actually our numbers could be swelled by this!!

Would think the helmets may be a safety issue, although I`m sure with a year to prepare, this will have been clarified with Plymouth.

You have to remove your helmet in shops in banks etc, won`t have the same effect if you can`t wear it.

Wonder what Hignett is like at the old Obi Wan Jedi mind trick?

Could be useful with disappointed stormtroopers if Pools get a paggering down at Plymouth.

Won't be dressing up (never do) up but will certainly take pride in the FDE although no escalator shots to be had in Plymouth unfortunately

Only other time I shed a semi tear was semi final win at Tranmere.

Cant remember what I was wearing at either game. Normal clothes probably.

Was discussing on Facebook earlier best fancy dress moments. Peterborough away was generally considered to be the funniest. Freddie Mercury fighting with a steward and a court jester getting shot out the away end by Plod. Someone even managed to name the jester, which was impressive.

I remember that at Peterborough :laugh:

I think it was Ronny Harnish dressed as a referree who produced a red card to the police as the jester was getting shot out.

I also remember it kicking off after the game in the car park as well with bricks getting lobbed putting out car windows. Total meaningless end of season game as well that finished 0-0!

I was up at Asda next to the Metro Centre last night and they had full Adult Stormtrooper outfits for £25 as part of their Star Wars DVD Launch..pretty sure other large Asdas would be partaking too.

Like Mutley the days I did it were great, can't get there this year but I'm sure it will look ace.

You definitely had your posh socks on, Chip !!!!!
I think you should organise for everybody to dress up as Mr Duchamp, would show Poolies in a more classy image.

I've only done it once and that was Smurfs and it was a fantastic day out in London. Penguins and Thunderbirds I was unable to do but again it looked a decent day.

If you had your bobby's helmet hanging outside your kegs it would certainly give the pastie munchers a laff. They would think it looked like a cock only smaller!m

Henry, I was in Tesco last night and thought I saw your name on a loaf of bread, I was mistaken, it said "Thick Cut"!

Odd this, but I recall doing a cartoon on here featuring Boba Fetish. Trouble is I can't remember when.

Cheers, I wasted an hour of my life trying to find it last night. The wife convnced me I must have imagined it. Which raises the terrifying thought I'd been imagining Fetish Bob in a stormtroopers outfit Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...........
