What is even the point of having a flag design with specific colours if you can change them at free will?

This ranks up there with the Royal family in the ‘I honestly don’t think I could give less of a fvck’ stakes.

The fact it’s back page news for the Mail and how fans are outraged at the ‘woke’ strip is testament to how stupid the whole thing is.

The white and red is traditional and should be left alone
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Why?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What do you mean why ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Why should something be left alone because it is traditional? Like, do you actually have any tangible reasons?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Because it is the flag of England
----------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------

there are only a handful of flag designs in the World that you can change the colours or convert to a monochrome and are still recognisable a the same specific flag.

Incidentally the English flag aint one of them.

So I just actually tried to find out why they changed it and it’s based on the 1966 training kit which incorporates the same colours.

Oh nooooooooooooo

Agreed it’s a strange one. It’s literally a thumbnail on the back of a collar.

Well exactly, if it's not our colours then it may as well be some other country - Madeupistan.

Its just a flag. Who gives a s***.

Certainly doesn't warrant more than one article devoted to it.

You’re going to have kittens when you find out where St George us from and how many flags are based on the same design.

I bet the vast majority complaining never buy a shirt. Do folk still buy replica shirts? I haven’t in about 20 years

Hi RDD, can you please fall into my trap of saying that England players have traditionally always been white so we should uphold that tradition and not surrender to the woke mob by playing black players? It is not too much to ask. Thanks.

posted on 22/3/24

Is RDD here actually? If not, why not?

-----------------------------------------------------------

But when you look at it in context, as a design feature on an England kit, it's not confusing, is it? It clearly alludes to the England flag + weaves in the blue that's the secondary colour from the England kit. Is anyone genuinely confused about the meaning? No. It's not confusion. It's flag fetishism.

I loved Peter Shilton's comment this morning that it's a disgrace and that the flag should always be Red, White and Blue...
