Agreed - they are embarrassing and aimed at tourist Man U and Liverpool fans.

Yes and I hope nobody buys one. Coventry City Wembley 2/4/17, FLT/Checkatrade Trophy Final is fine. No need to put the other club on it.

Anybody buying one should not be allowed in the stadium. I detests these, all PC, not real fans in my mind, normally found at the front of stands taking selfies.

You would have thought the club would be making some merchandise for the Wembley trip. Will be good to see all the CCFC and Sky Blue Army flags flying high for once.

My sister is doing the same, but it takes her longer to knit so she is going for Vanarama National League Champions 2018/19

Was thinking of my 87 cup finalist scarf and 87 cup final top. Then imagine it is 1987 again.

I think we may find we have 20,000 (+?) tourists ourselves amongst our magnificent 15,000. Armed with that prospect someones gonna make a killing with the frickin things.
Hopefully there will be around 20,000 (+?) real killings shortly after. 'Hoisted by their own half 'n' half scarf'.

Disagree a bit about the half and half scarves. They should never be worn but they're a good souvenir of the day for the kids' bedroom wall. The tip at Wembley is not to buy one on the way in ( usually rip off price) but haggle with the street sellers on the way out as they'll bin them afterwards.

Good intention but you'll end up with a very short cravat instead of a scarf.

One half could say "SISU", the other could say "Council" - in the middle it could say twats/traitors/out etc?

I once had a half and half Scalf! But not end to end it was one side and the ither! Loved it, I was probably 9 or 10 at the time. Was Big Ron's era! Was sky blue on one side and on the other purple and yellow.

Could be, but the intention was that those words apply to both sides i.e. SISU and the Council.

If it was describing the fans stuck in the middle it could say 'loyal/passionate' although the twats bit might still apply - who knows why we all still care and support the mess of a club!

The only half and half I know is half guiness and half champagne. Black velvet, best drink in the world.

Just buy a jumbo roll of skyblue paper wipes. Write CCFC on it in felt tip and wear it and on the way home if you need an emergency dump you can wipe your arse with it! NotOneSkidMore.
