If you had to play football

[DTS]

Over the Xmas period I went down to my mates local in Brighton with my mates Ratty and Clumsey. Nice bit of pub grub followed (Scampi and Chips in case you wondered) and a few cherryades to watch the delights of Charlton vs Villa.

Now any of you that saw the game will know except for the last minutes it was dire. Pretty soon the conversation began to drift and somehow we got onto the topic of playing football in a hat.

So I posed the question to the lads "If you had to play football in a hat what hat would you go for?" - For the purpose of debate - Wooly type Beany hats are not allowed.

I personally went for a bowler as its sort of head shaped, My mate Clumsey reckoned a 10 Gallon Hat would give you a Crouch like advantge at set plays and my mate Ratty reckons a Fezz was the way ahead.

Your thoughts on this matter please?

Viking Hat, spear the ball onto the horns to develop an entirely new way of dribbling the ball.

Is a regular baseball cap but placed backwards also not allowed?

Most definately not !!!!

I think Top hat (more robust than a ten gallon) to give additional height.

Standard issue army helmet. Make sure that Ghaly isn't the only mincing winger that loses some teeth.

f%ck that sh!t. Try doing any form of physical exercise with it on.  

EDIT: Quality plan though!

A flat cap has to be the way forward.

Small and lightweight, yet its peak would allow you to just get a glance on that cross which you are straining to get on the end of and would otherwise elude you. The firm peak would also enable you to get more power on a header.

It must have been a sad day when goalkeepers stopped wearing them.

For Total Football it has to be a Dutch cap

I would wear my furry Russian hat and matching thong.

A sombrero. Catch the ball in the wide brim ...

A blue Santa hat with the words "The Blues" lit up on the white rim. That plastic football could cause some inconspicous(sp?) damage too.

A crash helmet for set plays, corners etc so you could muscle right in and perhaps stick the nut John Terry when he started doing that girly push thing he does. Normal play - a royal Marines Green Beret. It's called respect.

A jesters hat, just running around with the bells would annoy the f%ck out of the opponents (and possibly teammates).

A few weeks ago I played football wearing a santas hat, obviously this wasn't a serious game. I wouldn't really recommend it as the w&nker marking me kept pulling it off of my head.

Also once played volleyball against Cardiff Uni wearing the same santas hat, wasn't really practical then either.
