That is not true....if it were it wouldn't be leaked...it would be full on pissed on!























Please god....make it not true

 

Based on last week's leaked kit, at least we're keeping things Spurple

 

That’s quite a nice kit. Collar looks fookin massive though.

 

Our pre match kits have been very odd since joining Nike. I think it’s a running theme that will continue.

 

Was on a train back from the game and through my tear stained glasses I read your post as being the first team SHIRT

 

Tear stained or not that kit is an abomination and should not be associated with our club

 

It appears that Neymar has died and reincarnated as a seal...

 

£16.11p per minute of agony. Bargain mate!

The graphic design on that thing is soooooo American... nauseating.

 

Looks like something from Star Trek!

 

Which corner of the dark web did you find that in mate?

 

esterday, our old friends, Borussia Dortmund, suffered the same VAR 'handball' fate as we did against Citeh....only worse.....much worse. The ball was belted at the defender from about a yard away and he had absolutely no chance of getting his arm out of the way. It was obviously accidental and under the new rules....a penalty.

The Dortmund manager was rightly furious. They were ahead at the time and went on to lose the game and concede the title to Bayern Munich. Is this really what we want?

Personally, I'm with Lucian Favre....."Football is making itself a laughing stock."

 

It’s certainly got an early 90’s feel about it. Inspired by this one, by any chance?

 

I have just watched the highlights of this, and if that is now handball then once again the people running the game are making a mockery of it. The handball law as it stands has in my opinion served the game perfectly adequately to this point and whilst it throws a few talking points throughout a season, it is not an issue like time wasting, and the various types of simulation that really need addressing.

 

I've got good news: thanks to the "clearer" definition from the IFAB, from next season the handball law will be changed so it's now ludicrously over complicated

...and now is a good time to remind people that the IFAB is made up of unelected representatives from The FA, SFA, FAW and IFA who are allowed to rule on all of world football, because that's definitely not going to cause problems or anything

 

Would be a right laugh if a ref could call for VAR whenever they
were unsighted and suspect diving etc.

 

No it wouldn't' Saltypool matches would last for days

 

What referees would suspect Saltypool players of diving?

 

Funnily enough the UEFA ones seem to have a much better grip of it than their Premier League counterparts...

 

Not as they exit the pitch in increasing numbers due to two yellows.

 

Expect certain teams to adopt an approach to diving similar to Steptonho teams' machine gunning approach to scything down players in response
