Funny you should say it. After the game I was walking down towards the exit and there were two teenagers (12-14) on front of me with horrible mullets. I commented on it to a friend at the time.

Calling it the 'Torres' hairdo is a bit strange seeing as 90% of the population of Spain have their hair that way.

That mullet do has been back for a while. Slightly shaved at the side etc ... associating it with Torres is a sin ... he's too good for that

Yes but if I posted in Fashion/Appearance Id be told to post in Soccer. Anyway, just thought it'd be something a bit light hearted for a change.

Yeah the mullet has been making a comeback for the last year or two! I don't see the appeal personally, but each to their own :pac:

It's known as the 'Fernando' to be fair, I've seen a few nice ones but a lot of them are pretty rubbish.

To be honest, the "Fernando" goes hand in hand with those New York Yankees tracksuits from Lifestyle Sports. Has done for a while.

I think someone started a similar thread in AH a while back, and one of the posts had a link to bebo page which was one of those 'band' pages. However, it was basically a bunch of these soft lads showing of those 'orrible mullets and **** eachother about how good they looked.
