New England kit

[tudor_fox]

" a playful update to the flag of St. George appears on the collar to unite & inspire"

"Inspired by the training kit worn by England's 1966 World cup winners"

Away kit is to " pay homage to forward thinking fashionistas"

US marketing doesn't work here.

Or does it?

Why is there blue on an England shirt?
Red and white should be the colours.

Well there's this crazy thing called the 'Union Jack'. Both intertwined and cemented in history.

The Union Jack is the flag of the U.K. we are talking about Englands flag here.

And who was the big boss of the UK? That's right, small timer.

my first impression of the purple shirt was it was almost the gay flag, l hadn't noticed the lack of the English flag at that point. If that was accepted, the next one would be a full colour range of that stupid multi colour representation of its shite agenda.

or

is it just a clever marketing plan ? all publicity is good publicity !

Just replace it with a snowflake as that’s the symbol that best represents the reaction to this.

Take off one lion and insert a mini Rishi image. That just about sums us up...

Well it seems to me that the last shipment of fortitude from the colony has foundered. No worries, I'm British enough for both of us.

I assume you have all the correct words but not in the right order.

Really? I'm no nationalist, and not really that patriotic. I've never flown a flag. I'd change so much about England, but this does get my goat. Its just so fooking stupid and I can't believe any sane official at either Nike or The FA thought it would be a good thing to do.

Probably so they can alter it again next season and make more money.

It’s never been the same since some small family company from Wigston lost the England contract.

Nato Green (on the Bugle) said it was the bisexual flag.
