I have a really nice Arsenal bomber jacket from 2011 that has never been worn. I bought it back in my home country when I was still following football. Since then, I’ve moved to the UK, to London, and realised that I brought the jacket with me.
Is it risky to wear it in East or Central London? I don’t want to get punched in the face out of nowhere.
P.S. I’m not particularly into football anymore, but if you ask me whether I watch football or support anyone, I’ll say that I supported Arsenal back in 2010.

No, you’ll be fine, nobody would care.
Perhaps don’t wear it around Tottenham but otherwise crack on.
No and up the gunners!
Is it dangerous? No
Jesus Christ. Where are these questions coming from?
No. You aren’t going to be punched out of nowhere just for wearing an Arsenal jacket whilst walking down the street or grabbing a coffee.
The most risk you’ll receive is just verbal banter (from Spurs fans).
99% of people in London aren’t bothered about others and just get on with their day.
Your biggest danger is dying from embarrassment from being an Arsenal fan.
It’s a pretty good year to get back into following Arsenal 🙂
And no, you’d be fine anywhere. Other than possibly Bermondsey, but honestly no one’s safe in Bermondsey.
…Where do you mentalists come from with these questions? You cannot be a human, must be a bot, surely?
The only thing you’ll get is people asking you what was Wenger doing bringing Walcott on so early
No, but don’t be surprised if you’re refused entry to pubs/clubs as some frown upon football colours
Jesus, where are these endless ‘am I going to be stabbed/shot/raped/eaten questions coming from’? This is the seventh one I’ve answered today.
London is safe. There are 8 million Londoners, 12 million commuters and most are fine. The 32 million tourists who come here each year are also fine.
It’s London mate. You can get away with wearing your Arsenal bomber jacket and no fucking pants and no-one would bat an eyelid.
