    I'm not someone who cares about the ethical implications of the shirt sponsor. As far as I'm concerned it is up the the governing bodies to set the rules on what types of companies are/aren't allowed to sponsor, and then Saints just play by the rules along with everyone else. To restrict yourself with some sort of moral obligation just puts you at a disadvantage.

    However, it is good to see a local company on the shirt and, being a successful global business, you'd think it would be a good deal for both parties.

    As someone who's been on a lot of P&O cruises, I'm not so thrilled about this. I'm going to have to stick with MSC now!

    Ha! That's the stereotype but there's a lot of young people, families and kids on cruises. Though I think maybe it varies by cruise line.

    Not perfect. The two different shades of red is weird. But I’ll take it.

    It'll be the same shade of red on the official shirt i'm sure but i'll wait for a cheap knock off because of the plain back.

    Yes, it's still very nice. But, it was so close to being beautiful; all they had to do was continue the stripes down the back of the shirt!

    Think that rule was quietly binned off as loads of clubs have striped backs.

    So armchair fans can read player names and numbers on the telly, probably. Apparently its not a thing anymore though.
