Not in Crawley Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 (edited) 1 hour ago, Sweep said: I'm clearly not up on my flags, what do those colours mean/represent? - I know the rainbow flag is for bummers, but what do purple, blue and dark blue represent? - I need to know, so that I can decide if I need to be offended or not I don't think its meant to be anything other than a graphic choice, matches the cuffs and links to the second kit - its purple because we have either worn red or blue second shirts so they've been merged to created purple... So its bog all to do with woke anything, its simply a design choice I believe, which I guess some feel they want a more traiditonal thing, some like a bit of change here and there. Also, didn't we have this ten years ago designed by Peter Saville to represent the diversity of the country? Shows how far backwards we've gone when nothing was really said about this but now you get blowhards like Lee Anderson saying he wants his country back because of a small design element on a shirt. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-11176405 Edited March 21 by Not in Crawley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out that if you want to "deface" another nation's flag, the wokie types don't like it either.

Not in Crawley Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Personally I couldn't care less, not going to buy it or wear it. Makes no odds to me as long as win something.

Nike and England may say it is but it’s a blatant lie. correct, dress it up how they like, if it's not a red cross on a white background, then it's simply not the English flag, and it shouldn't have the colours changed. It also arguably shouldn't have peoples names and football clubs names written on it either, but that's another issue. Whilst on about the English flag, I'm not sure I get why at England games there are always loads of Union Jacks, as that's not the English flag. I'm not really a flag person as you can tell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
