Has anybody seen the leaked kit?
Possibly the only thing more embarrassing than our performance.
Here they be.

Meh, at least it isn't a Brazilian shirt with our badges sewn over the top.Quote:

It’s giving me nightmares of Liverpool’s purple jersey a few years back with tribal sleeves.
I admit, knowing that “pattern” on the sleeves is “the reflection of water” is making me feel slightly better.
Imo, green shorts could’ve made a big difference. Too yellow.
We look like Teletubbies running around in all yellow. Again, Liverpool did this and it was hard to watch, not just cause we were rubbish and martin skrtel was wearing it.
Do I recall some directive from FIFA along the lines of all kits having to be predominantly one colour? I thought that was the reason we had to move away from the green shorts.Quote:

I don't enjoy the away kit at all.
I love the training kit, it is dope :wub:
Apparently the idea was to ensure all teams had a "light" kit and a "dark" kit, so that in any given game there would be a team in light colours and a team in dark colours, supposedly to help referees differentiate the two teams.Quote:

If I had my time again, I’d have booked free cancellation hotels the day the draw came out.
And internal flights immediately as well.
Live and learn. We will see where the next one is. USA perhaps? Seems an obvious candidate.
I'm going to take his silence as being "Yeah no worries, I'll pay for ALL the beers"Quote:

Yeah was all a bit off. But I've never been through the process before maybe its normal for WCs? The last one I wanted but couldn't get was Brazil Serbia, for a good hour it kept saying available (refreshed like a million times) but wouldn't let me buy them until eventually saying exhausted haha!Quote:
