I am in no position to criticise anyone's fashion choices, I know footballers, even retired ones, can have fashion choices that are less mainstream.
Are they making a comeback?

Just madness wearing them.

I absolutely loved Oxford Bags, or as they evolved, white Skinners.

You could put your shoes on first and pull them over and up, hence achieving ultimate coolness.

Swaggeroony!

 

[Bordersbear]

Only one button on the waistband and no baggy pockets, not the ones I remember.

 

[Blaew]

Is that Peter Reid?

 

[PeeblesBear]

The sight of that Ginger Munter turns my stomach.

Fae Peterheid is Deid .
Volvo for sale

 

[rangers for life]

Lol the only thing missing was a syrup (wig) to complete the look ,poor old bugger no doubt thinks he is a ticket.

 

[Norman can quest]

Is that Peter Reid?

That's who i think it is as well,if it's not then he is a fine lookalike.

 

[NYC Davie]

As the Newcastle fans sang when he was at Sunderland - Peter Reid’s got a monkey’s heid!

 

[Midfield General]

As a youngster of the 70s these are not Oxford Bags just badly fitted trousers.

I can attest that those would never have gained you entry into the Wigan Casino or the Blackpool Mecca for the Northern Soul marathons.

Patch pockets on each trouser leg side.

Usually sown up and just for show. I had a lovely bottle green pair. Platforms with segs or baseball boots and DM’s with yellow laces.

Not if you’re wearing 2” platforms.

More like The Sweet

I was only a kid when they were in fashion. In fact, I didn't even know what fashion was or still is. I do remember them in the shop window when my wee Ma bought them.

Has he got his carry out tucked into a pair of football socks underneath?

Photoshop ? No chance that’s real.

He's meant to be a big Celtic fan.

My old man through football ended up out with him socially in the 80s. Doesn't have many good words to say about him.

Said pretty much every other Everton player at the time was brand new though. This would have been around 85/86.

 

[dcbear]

He probably shat himself and nobody had a pair of extra-short sized trousers they could lend him.

I remember getting a new pair of corduroy ones in the 70’s and promptly ruining them jumping over one of the metal fences that were spiked. Face plant and an absolute bollicking from my mum. New clothing didn’t come around very often in those days.

Loved my electric blue bags with six buttons and multiple zips around the wide waistband.

 

[VelvetOrange]

Fond memories of the Bags and coaster brogues from our glory days of 75 & 76. Scarf round the wrist.
By 77 drainpipes and trainers were in.

He’s maybe snapped his Achilles and has a boot on that left foot.

Same for me ( it must be a cord thing ) bought a pair of black ones, 3 button high waisters, 30 inch baggies. Wore them to a game and a police dog took a chunk out of the knee,,,,,,, b*****d.

Bring back high waisters. They’d hold my pot belly in place now

 

[RSEA]

I think monkey's heid was wearing these when he was chasing Maradonna in 1986

 

[grahamdavid]

Thought they were Billy Connolly’s empty incontinence pants!

Outstanding

 

[happytobeblue]

I know that he's pan status but,i could've sworn that was the actor Warren Clarke behind him.

 

[the_baron]

Carries them off better here.

Reckon 'wide waisters' is what you're after.

 

[Tommy48]

Ach as my wee mammy would say "He'll grow into them"

 

[rangers for life]

Peter Reid is a beggar lover ,deserves those drainpipes

 

[blue genes]

A topper of a cardigan takes the heat off his breeks…

 

[Tommyhlrsc]

Steve Rotherham

Nope, Rotheram.

Miss-spell annoys the feck out of the scouse family.

His dad was one of 18 kids in a two up two down council house...

 

[WinkieWATP]

Carries them off better here.

His Mrs jacket however not so much.

The baggy trousers look great compared to the old bag they're standing next to. The very suggestion she could potentially replace Starmer as PM tells you just how far this country has fallen.

 

[The Jeanie]

The sight of that Ginger Munter turns my stomach.

Different strokes for different folks and all that. But I'd be in about those big ginger fun bags like the proverbial "spastic eating a choc ice".
No wonder Boris was distracted!
(In my humble opinion, of course!)

I'd like to think that at even at 93 he chose to wear them to mock Reynar for the ridiculous fucking green flared suit she wore walking into No10 after they won the election.

Aye, because a dunce outlasted by a lettuce; and a guy who couldn't tell the truth if his life depended on it and lied to the Queen set a really high bar

This is the level of political discourse we have nowadays. Everyone telling everyone else how shite they are / were, as if that somehow makes themselves being shite absolutely fine. It really is a race to the bottom and just as you think our political class can't get any worse, another 'hold my beer' moment comes along and down we go. I'm not and never have been a member of any political party and I've never felt any more disengaged from the lot of them as I do right now. But anyone thinking a cretin, a dangerous cretin at that, like Rayner will be acceptable because the Tories gave us Truss & Boris, just beggars belief to me. To make matters worse, in Scotland we have the SNP fucktards, aided and abetted by their little Green zealots, compounding it all.
