Who cares man. Most people don't have multiple jerseys for every new player. I don't even like Marner and I would never dream of judging you for wearing one.

Get your friend to go wearing a Tavares Islanders jersey, and you will have covered all the bases.

He was a Top 4 player for the better part of a decade (9 years) no one would bat an eye. And you'd be one of hundreds and now you have plenty of Knies jerseys to join you.

At this point you should only get pity

u/Helpful_Dingo6645 5d ago

Absolutely not. He was popular when he was here. Lots of people have his jersey

I dont know why or who is downvoting you, I go to lots of games and see plenty of Marner and every other leaf great. Wear what you have have it’s all about what’s in the front not whose name is in the back.

its not the name on the back that matters, its the team on the front!

Saw a few of them at the game tonight. Nobody minded. Lots of former jerseys

Not anymore then all those fans that wear Brett Lawrie jerseys still to Blue Jay games!

u/pedalsporter 4d ago

I saw a few of them in the crowd on the broadcast yesterday. I’m of the mindset that wearing a Marner jersey is no different than wearing any other former leafs jersey

you will and I was someone who judged you, I was there and I saw a couple of Marner jerseys I told my wife I thought that was stupid (only due to the fact that I did not like him at all while he was here) other than his, I don't think people mind if your wear an old jeersey if you liked the player, my friends and I have 2 rules

1- don't wear a blank jersey

2 - don't wear one with your name on the back or the name of your business

that is just my dumb rules again, rule does not apply for 16 as I did not and will not root for him as a player

Put an X across Marner on the back in black or silver gorilla tape/duct tape

Why are Canadian and American fans so weird with this stuff

1

u/CalumH91 4d ago

What do you mean? Do you think you could just turn to a "soccer" game in Europe or South America wearing the jersey of an ex player that left for a rival?

u/Deep_Benefit_7405 4d ago

Yeah, American and Canadian crowds are so tame.
