Ridiculous decision

[RaySmith]

I think it was a disgrace that England wore red shirts in the 1966 World Cup Final, but I don't recall any fuss. 

Maybe that was because it was all black-and-white on our TV sets   

Red and white are the national colours and Germany won the toss for choice of kit.

Now Shilton thinks that blue is on the national flag. Idiot.

Does he mean the red, white and blue of the Union Jack?

[Grassy Noel]

The only thing that I find offensive about the kit is the Nike tick logo.  It will not be long before they incorporate it in the St George flag.

Presumably. The blue represents Scotland. He's known for his ignorance.

Should have said 22 plus p&p

Britain has absolutely gone down the culture wars rabbit hole where nothing stories like this are used to distract from failing governments, rising poverty, the housing crisis and so on. Anything to misdirect anger away from the people really causing havoc in people's lives (the rich, basically).

Mmmm! Anyway they should not mess with the English flag

The fact it's rattled the gammons makes it a great kit.

Not English or British but today I learned that being proud of your country and not wanting to see your flag changed means you're a gammon 🙄

I flew back into Gatwick yesterday and there's a sign saying "you're welcome to the UK". I thought - "yep".

Nike PR "See, I told you all publicity is good publicity" $$$$$$$$$$$$

Can you tell me 10 things that make someone a gammon.
Just want to see how many boxes i tick.
If you dont mind.

Here's 4: white, working class, middle-aged, male.

The sentiment is as vile as any other gender, class, age or race-based epithet but via some contorted groupthink the people that use it reassure themselves that they're still on the moral high ground.

On the plus side, for exactly that reason it serves as good indicator that someone is intellectually limited and debating with them is a waste of time.

They mind their knuckles on the step when going through doors.

• Bright Red Face
• Offended by Everything
• Cry about a flag on a shirt that's been altered 100s of times but only now makes them tear up because the colours are sort of near something they're probably repressing
• Try to equate Gammon to actual slurs

Just a couple.

As much as I love a troll, you're becoming more and more boring in an attempt to be funny. Trying way too hard.

[alfie]

A question, now please be honest, apart from when the camera focused on it for about 5 seconds, did anyone actually notice it during the game, I certainly didn't.

Going back over Freibird's posts, he likes to quote posts from months or weeks before that he deems were bad and retrospectively troll/insult that poster. Not the nicest person.

Nope, me neither to be honest. I get why some have taken offence to it. Grains of sands with this sort of stuff building mountains out of mole hills. I don't think Nike needed to change anything really, doesn't make sense but each to their own I suppose. I won't be building up blood pressure over it.
