I didn’t deny that though? lol and regarding the shirt I’m apathetic to it at best, I don’t really get the game here lol

Think the lack of red again in the last few years shows its about the fa colours rather than the nations colours. Why don't they just allow vote for the new kit... no one can dispute. Instead its like heres new england kit like or lump... if you like it itll cost £100 to buy it.

Yes this is the one!! lol To be honest those calling people far right because they are passionate about the flag is just as stupid as those going mental over the change.

Well okay, I’m impartial, they changed the colours for support of the 66’ team and I don’t see that has a thing to moan about. But people shouldn’t call people far right if they are more passionate about the countries flag than what I am.

These days you're either a right wing racist nazi, or a lefty woke snowflake. No in between.

Seems times have changed, because it isn’t the first time the England kit design has included a changed flag lol nothing got mentioned before. The world we live in with X (Twitter) and social media platforms has certainly contributed to the overreaction to everything. We will see hundreds of St George’s being flown at the euros and proudly

People should be more angry about the hideous prices of the shirt.

£85 for a "stadium standard" whatever the feck that is and the media have nicely deflected away from that to some trivial design change which some people are up in arms about!

 

 

 

Not allowed in if you're not wearing the stadium standard shirt...

The biggest mis-use of the flag to me was the Olympic 2012 kit:

The St Georges cross was navy, and had light blue in there, and this was the defining look of the kit, not tucked away at the back.

 

But it worked as an abstract representation of the flag - it sold well (I've got one of the football kits), and I don't remember any big outcry at the time, and it became an iconic part of our home Olympics. 

 

And from then on, I've seen it as OK to play around with the flag designs on shirts. At the end of the day, its an item of clothing and not a flag. If you don't like the shirt, then don't buy it - simple! I think our political leaders have more important things to use their platform for.

Yeah but the biggest difference between now and then is that now there's some ridiculously divisive culture war about literally everything. TikTok and Twitter instigate an argument and politicise basically every single thing that happens. 

 

The same people arguing about the England shirt flag are probably the same idiots that were convinced to care about the colour of their passport.
