    There's an Umbro logo on the jersey as well. Any problems with that?

    A Google Image search later and yes, by god she is hot stuff - Irish and Mediterranean, what a combination; but there's something so nauseating about those bloody photo-shoots with gurning politicians / executives, flanked by some rent-a-model(s) grinning for the camera as they pose with a football kit / oversized cheque / whatever

    About as much of a problem as I have with the ford logo on the front of my focus*.

    Now if ford wanted to stick an ad for a third party on the bonnet ...that'd be a different matter.

    *incidently I do have a problem of sorts with the ford logo on the front of my focus. It's actually a twistable lid revealing the keyhole for the bonnet. However it is not impervious to the weather, the barrel has rusted to f*&^ and ford, in their wisdom, didn't put an auxiliary bonnet release on the dash or under the steering column.
    " I wish to God that someone would be able to block out the voices in my head for five minutes, the voices that scream, over and over again: "Why do they come to me to die?"

  4. Thanks From:

    Just get them sponsored by Guinness. End Of.

    Anyway unless you're a schoolboy or playing a game, why would anyone want to wear a soccer jersey, generally they're horrible things to wear!

    And speak as somebody with about 6 old ones;won't be buying anymore! The vintage style ones or trackie and training tops are generally OK, albeit still a rip-off.

    You can actually buy a "kit" to replace it. Works out cheapest if you wait til the car's due a service (or is in for something more pressing) and get it done then. The kit's only 50 bucks but as always it's the labour that's a killer.

    We now take you back to the topic...

    Pea soup stain aside, that's a nice piece of kit.

    a bit weird that the collar is not the same style as the home jersey. Would be even nicer if it was.
    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
