Re: Nike 'update' England flag
I don’t like the collar and who wants an England shirt with another country’s flag on the collar . I don’t know what country that flag belongs to but it’s not the English flag . It wouldn’t surprise me to see the sales of this shirt go down the pan . Come to think about it that’s where it belongs because it’s a sh*t shirt

Re: Nike 'update' England flag
Almost, but doesn't quite meet the criteria. If it had been in the rainbow colours, then most certainly. But this is just a corporate initiative that doesn't even have the good grace to pretend that it's championing some social justice issue. So NOT woke.

I just showed it to my kid and it instantly made him gay, it's dangerous subliminal woke. Only Lee Anderson can save us now.

Thank God Keir is willing to take a unequivocal stance on the issues that matter.
'The England 2024 Home kit disrupts history with a modern take on a classic' has to be some of the worst marketing gubbins of all time.

Re: Nike 'update' England flag
That’s been the standard price for a while. Cheaper ‘stadium’ kits are available.
Not sure why Kier has decided to challenge Nike on their pricing now, tho?

It’s almost like an art prank to see whether a story can proceed as if it’s a culture war flashpoint even when there’s literally no story

Re: Nike 'update' England flag
Obviously, not being a total f*cking loon, I'm not concerned about the cross.
The home kit is a bit 86ish but done badly, I'm not that taken with it. Lots are tho, as it's already sold out.
The away kit is hideous, looks like it's for the scotch team. https://www.nike.com/gb/t/england-2024- ... FJ4272-573

Re: Nike 'update' England flag
This is a non issue but it's a fair question. I wonder if Nike are doing the Italy shirt and just banging a tricolour with brown, yellow and black on it to "disrupt history"? Or is it just us who has to put up with this rubbish? (It's not woke rubbish, just rubbish)

It will become a legendary kit when our boy Harry lifts the Euros trophy wearing it

Re: Nike 'update' England flag
You failed to stipulate such terms prior to us entering into contract, so not accepted. I win.
Anyway, how is it that I am a member of the same species that will willingly spend £125 (£85 for the 'stadium version') on a top?
You see, this is why I have lost all faith in humanity and think the thickos deserve everything they get.

Re: Nike 'update' England flag
But it is not the England flag. They would not get away with adulterating any other country’s flag so why should England put up with it?Mick McQuaid wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 6:33 am I just showed it to my kid and it instantly made him gay, it's dangerous subliminal woke.

That's why we should get his statue in place at Brisbane Road ASAP to avoid accusations of glory hunting if we wait until the trophy has been secured..Rich Tea Wellin wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 9:14 am It will become a legendary kit when our boy Harry lifts the Euros trophy wearing it

Re: Nike 'update' England flag
The shirt is very nice. The flag is a load of nonsense, its just for aesthetics but theymve decided to turn it into a political argument.
