Slightly tangential but I stumbled across this piece of AI generated patriotic art while tumbling down the rabbit hole of England kit Twitter. The comments mocking it gave me a chortle.

Brilliant. Love the fact there's actually a baseball on the floor too.

Also, why the fack would he think Lions are in India???

It’s nothing to do with LGBT. You’d think these traditionalists would associate the colour purple with royalty, not gay people, but here we are.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It may not be. But what do the FA mean by ‘inclusive’
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I’ve not seen that. It was unite and inspire, not seen the FA say differently.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ah. I may be wrong in that case from an early or inaccurate report.

It's really interesting that you perceive it this way. I agree that this could have happened ten years ago and no one would have batted an eyelid. But I very much doubt there's any political agenda to the design idea...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Completely agree with what you said in the rest of your post.

Not saying this is a deliberately political agenda. I think people are going to be extra sensitive to a big US global brand making the change though as brands have been making political statements to try and win younger audiences.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What’s the political statement being made?

The passion on both sides seems overblown on here.

If you don’t like it don’t buy the shirt

It’s not like any of you peasants can afford too anyways 😂
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You were upset about the change to the flag for no reason though. It's a design thing, not a woke thing
----------------------------------------------------------------------
UpsetI thinks it’s a little odd to change the flag but apart from that what is the big deal.

Like I said if you don’t like the shirt don’t buy the shirt.

Must go as in the gym early, toodles
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What are you doing in the gym? Give me weights/sets/reps plan
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Back and triceps today,. High intensity workout with minimal time in between sets. Sets consist of 15 for about 50 mins.
I’m in good toned shape so my continued goal is more toning maintenance if you like rather than getting beefed up

I also run 4-5 times a week too which obviously helps,

Shame, Baz enjoys getting beefed up

Nike must be loving this, so much publicity and glorious memes, the design already feels iconic!

It's certainly iconic but I don't think Nike are loving this, share price took a battering yesterday.

Even Southgate has said he doesn't like it. That's not going to have a positive effect on sales.

Poor communication from Nike, if they'd have just said it's a nod to the 66 kit it nobody would have said much, but suggesting they're updating the flag, and uniting people is the bit that hasn't gone down too well.

. You got me there. I had no idea India held lions these days, thought those days were long gone. Pretty neat.

Meh, people assumed it was “woke” so were instantly against it, f*ck them and all the politicians with their moronic culture wars BS.


I like it.

I’m with Sir Keir on this one. Unnecessary - and probably inexplicable - artistic license.
