But charging nearly £500 for 3 teenagers shirts is abhorrent in these financially difficult times. People will just buy the cheaper version. Not that they're actually cheap like. Does my head in the way Nike will have a normal replica shirt and then a match version that the players wear for the fans to buy.

They might even be £70, I'm not sure. I hope we never, ever have Nike as our kit makers again. I remember being so happy when it was announced they were ours but the reality of it was shite. Cookie cutter designs and their refusal to make the shirts in women's sizes finished me off with them tbh. They haven't even learnt from it either - their actions in regards to Earps and making the GK tops available for women showed that. Shit company, shit morals.

MikeO Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 Great to see Southgate with a young, highly rated, left footed centre back on the pitch bench...only a friendly so we should be looking to the future. Dunk then demonstrates why you shouldn't play a shite, aging, right-sided centre back on the left. Southgate is a total clown.

I'm watching the game now, at 35 mins when he has just had a moment leading to Belgium's 2nd goal. Horrible defending. England have some serious youth & potential in this squad, shame that a lot of it will get over looked while Southgate is in.

Then maybe we can return to a good English company like Umbro to give us a product on price and with the understanding of our heritage. Welll...... it's really happening now. Iceland changed hot cross buns to have a tick on them, we knew that one. next up cadburys outlets selling "gesture eggs" - even non religious people are fuming about it. I thought it was a windup.... it's not. Here's an idea - imagine that changing the names of Christian festivals would create the same reaction to changing the names of other religions festivals..... my guess is that people would say "no chance". I genuinely hope these virtue signalling bosses pick up their P45's due to costing their companies a fortune. Palfy and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing is sacred anymore mate, it’s the global economy destroying what little respect some have for themselves and the society they live in. I like to think of myself as someone who his centre of left wing, I own my own company I embrace globalism it would be a poorer place without it, but that doesn’t mean I should have to forsake my values and principles in the name of globalism, and I will call out companies and people who for profit try to make a mockery of the things that reflect our country and society.

Tonsta Posted March 27 Report Share Posted March 27 Did i miss something last night, donkey McGuire goes home sick, swollen fetlock, Stones goes off after 10 mins, so Dunk and Gomez play at CB, and the best young English CB does not get a single minute, in either friendly .
