Brilliant this flag stuff, education education education, if only...

Load of right wing and nationalist snow flakes, pissing their pants and outraged at nothing in particular and being offended by a tiny badge. Welcome to England 2024, it’s a parody of a lunatic asylum.

Im all for it now. Noisey irrelevant. For all his noise not many of his followers prepared to put his hand in their pockets to support his court case. Good sign.

Muricans showed zero interest in football for a long time. Once they started to show a bit of interest in the 80s there was talk that they wanted to change it for murica ... bigger goals, higher scores, razzmatazz, quarters etc. Bugger off!

Now there's money in the game and the murican businesses are suddenly all over the game like a rash. Our national kit is made by a US company, with no tradition in the game, that excels at marketing cheaply uncreatively designed bland wear with its brand logo at stupid costs. They got this particular kit, in a run of bad kits, badly wrong in the eyes of lots of English, whether you think they're over reacting or not.

I'm not really bothered about the flag - it stands for a weak nation broken by the invading Normans and ruled and used cruelly by an aristocracy elite ever since - today pulling strings behind the veneer of democracy. However, I am bothered by what particular brand got it wrong. Bugger off!

I earn more through social media alone than you do a months graft chieftain.

Please donate your pound coin to a charity who will appreciate it.

Of course you do.

Who really cares. There are a lot more other things to worry about.

Embarrassing fallout this. Do people genuinely have nothing better to do? Wish I had the time to spend being outraged over nothing.

Decent kits to be fair, not at that price though.
