Don't know if you've seen that they have revealed the England away shirt for the next year.

Now we could get into a debate about club vs. country, how **** England are these days, or how blue is the wrong colour for England away... but that's not the point of my thread...

I also found the 'keeper's shirt. And it seems our Tiger Print may actually have a rival for 'worst kit'

Who the hell signed that one off? It's worse than Seaman's in 96. And that had the excuse of being in the nineties.
 
Jesus christ, who designs these shirts? They're football jerseys for sport not for the bloody cat walk.

As you said Bernstein, Seaman's shirt was in the 90s and maybe the designer had been doing too much acid. I remember it was quite vivid. :)
 
They are the worst 2 shirts of the past decade. I remember the goalkeeper shirt a few years ago was green, and I thought that was horrendous, but that just defies all designs of a football shirt.

I suppose the away strip is a change from the traditional red, but it still doesn't look right. It presents itself as something you would buy in the 'England fashion' range, rather than an actual matchday shirt
 
I thought the last home shirt with the polkadot - style flags on the shoulder was bad enough... Jesus. If I was Joe Hart, I'd have to be considering international retirement about now. People will be photographing him in one of these.


For those who don't remember, here's the Seaman shirt

It looks like the seat cover on a train. ****ing horrendous!

P.S. England are ****, club over country at the moment.

The sleeves make it look like a clown outfit! The best England kit i can remember is the one from 2000-2002, a sensible looking kit that looked quite tidy. I still have my Beckham shirt from back then, even though it doesn't fit me now! As for the keeper shirt, pretty much like the last kit i wouldn't spend my money on it. Won't pay 40, 45 quid for something like that.

Is that the one with the single red stripe down the side? I've got that one myself. Doesn't fit me either.

Strange how they all shrink over time. :P
 
To be fair. Apart from the sleeves, I'd wear the seaman shirt. The new ones terrible. I never spend £40-£45 on an England shirt anyway. I only ever buy them when they've been reduced to £10 ;). Plus I'm getting me a Scotland shirt rather than an England one :)
 
I actually quite like the black one, except for the collar being the wrong colour.

It's a shame we're not with Umbro still though, imagine that keeper kit with the Cash Converters iron on patch on it.
