The collar on the home kit is disgusting and the colour of the away is just a nasty faded blue IMO. Don’t understand the fantasy of making a retro kit. Just make a good modern kit and let the past be the past. They’ve even taken advantage of changing St. George’s cross on the back of the collar to include purple… which makes it even more un-English 👍🏻 Horrible shirt ruined by the overly-big collar plus the price is £100-125 apparently which is beyond disgusting. Probably cost £3 to make in a Nike sweatshop. These shirts should be £40-50 max. IRaMPaGe and Plumbers Crack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like all these corporations they like to pull the wool over people's eyes with all the bullshit they sponsor.

J4MES OX4D 9,965 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 More drama about the England shirts and this time with the flag on the collar. Really not sure why we need an American company to not only produce, but also design our shirts. Surely there is a UK sports manufacturer that could do this? Umbro are surely still in the game. Nike should stick to basketball and selling 40000% marked-up clothing and footwear. IRaMPaGe and Lurchzy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the whole thing is a shame really because I’ve always loved Nike’s design but this one has hit a nerve with me. Really don’t like the changing of the England flag and I really don’t like the alternative colours. Stick to White, Red and Blue.

phil bottle 9,714 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Losing out in the play offs, at home, to penalties, must be a massive kick in the teeth. As for England, all the Kane haters have learned a few things about England without him in the team. And not sure I like the over reliance on the brilliance of Bellingham. However, the Euros are there for the taking... Plumbers Crack, GazzaGarratt and Lurchzy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He now has that aura around him that other countries are afraid of which always gets him more goals too. I feel we've always needed a Bellingham, someone to really standout as best player in the world. Owen was the only one when he burst onto the scene that felt similar. Lets hope he stays fit as he'll need a truckload of players to stop him. I still winning tournaments is much harder than people realise. Stuff needs to go your way, and the consistency is hard to get against other top quality players over 7, 90 minute games. I so badly want us to get over the line as I really do think the philosophy the international team has followed has been the right one for years - its just that mental hurdle to get past now. 🤞 phil bottle and Plumbers Crack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J4MES OX4D 9,965 Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Gutted for Coventry! What a remarkable comeback in a quite epic game and then getting screwed by VAR with the last kick of the game. If I were a United fan, I don't think I would even be able to celebrate after that near-humiliation. More questions for Ten Hag and another capitulation. Meanwhile Nottingham Forest have made a stunning statement after their defeat to Everton. Absolutely mad daw of football!

GazzaGarratt 10,998 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Coventry fully deserved by the end. Mental as it was looking like one of the worst semi finals up until 70 minutes. Cov hadn't even had a shot. Then all carnage broke loose - the VAR we've talked online for a while now about it and I think for me its more now that VAR highlights are cruel the Offside rule is. Gaining an advantage my arse on that goal - and the line the morning after showed that pixels went over Wan Bissaka's foot. It just doesn't feel right. Separately, Forest just made a bad situation for them even worse with that tweet. Lurchzy and J4MES OX4D 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurchzy 1,570 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 The more I look into the Coventry ‘offside’ goal the more it frustrates me.

Macca89 501 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Yano something, I'm actually getting sick of it now, I couldn't care less anymore. Yes I felt for Cov, to have come back from 3-0 down and to have been so close and go out the way they did. I can't imagine the heartbreak. However, I have none stop seen posts on social media the last few days saying they have been cheated, blah blah blah, plastic utd fans this. First of all, if you actually look at the offside, where the blue line ends, is where AWB foot ends, then Hadji Wright's foot is slightly in the red line so therefore he is just off, however I still agree with Lee that advantage should go with the striker. But in the eyes of the law, he's off. 2nd of all, Coventry shouldn't of even got to extra time, the penalty that was awarded against AWB was absolutely shambolic, he was less than 2 yards away with his arm behind him and to his side, wtf was he meant to do, awful decision but nobody talks about that, if that was given against coventry there would be all out chaos. (Pic attached is 2 similar instances from this weekend which weren't given, yet nobody says a thing) 👀 Also, I'm absolutely sick of everyone labelling Utd "Plastic Fans", pretty sure I've seen about 10 people who I know who are Arsenal, Utd, Chelsea fans, all went down supporting Cov yet we are the plastics 🤣🤣🤣 On to the final 💪🤣 GazzaGarratt and NCA-Paendrag 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the offside line was clearly drawn over his foot and not to his foot which would suggest Hadji’s toe is onside. Either way, VAR ruined one of the FA Cups most exciting games in recent history. Now I’m not one to talk about supporting a club for any reason, but I can feel for the fans who feel they were robbed of a place in the final (my grandma for example, who is a life long fan of CCFC). Either way the a team in Sky Blue is going to win it. As for Antony at the end… it’s laughable, he’s actually such a joke. Found Maupay’s comment funny about it. The better team lost.

Macca89 501 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 OK, so you see where AWB foot ends which is at the end of the blue line, well if you find a pic of Hadji Wright, his foot was partly in the red line so he was off. The law for handball states that if he moves towards the ball which he didn't, then its a pen, he moved his arm away and had his arm tucked in so never a penalty. Yes Cov played well, but they were played off the park for 70 mins, they were literally non existent until then, played well for the rest of the game. They weren't robbed at all. It was just a questionable call which I would of said should go towards the striker. And as much as anthony is a dick, Hadji Wright is too, as shows the pic below, that's why Anthony did what he did 👍🤣 NCA-Paendrag and GazzaGarratt 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy how Chelsea have spent $1.5bn including a few £100m+ players and Palmer is the only decent signing. City probably shouldn't have got rid of him although it would've been very hard to accommodate him into the team at the time. Impressive how good he is in such a bad Chelsea side and probably the only remotely exciting player they have. Jackson is probably the worst finisher in history and could've probably netted 40 goals this season. IRaMPaGe, Lurchzy and GazzaGarratt 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would just put it down to the complete imbalance of young and experienced players, they just don’t have anyone on the pitch to guide them and it shows. The only player to stand out for them this season has been Cole Palmer. If they didn’t have him they would’ve definitely been in a relegation battle again.
