Manchester United kit

Post by ClaretTony » Tue Sep 08, 2020 4:40 pm

This is their third kit, they could wear this when the game at the Turf finally goes ahead.

Maybe they think that if they look like zebras, they won't be so easy to tackle, after all, they reckon it works to confuse lions.

Actually thinking about it, in the same way we’ve lowered the shoulder line for disputable hand balls, this pattern may well affect the cameras for VAR offsides...

If they do wear it Tony we should laugh them out of the ground. That's terrible.

I’m reliably told the shorts and socks are fake news and will actually be all white - no evidence for that though - just what I’ve been told from a Utd friend - maybe he’s clutching at straws!

Well that big lummox Maguire is going to look even more clumsy in this kit. It must be a wind up, as surely no one high up at United would give approval to this?

I’m not advocating swearing, however if they do rock up at the Turf in this kit I am certain there will be a resounding “what the f@cking hell is that?” Coming from three and a half sides of the ground.

The kit at the top of this thread has come directly from the Manchester United club store so I'm not expecting them to be fake news.

I had a long sleeved casual shirt of similar pattern made by Billabong, it was a really smart shirt for a night out. Thankfully I recycled it earlier this year.

Is the dazzle ships thing what they are going for?

It seems third kits are going crazier by the season... the crazier the kits the more re-tweets its get, weighed up with how many times they actually play in it, probably makes it worthwhile from a publicity point of view.

Well, at least when we get around to releasing our 3rd kit in January, it won’t be the worst in the league!

Update: Apparently the crazy shorts and socks are only for fans to buy to ‘complement’ the shirt - but the team will play in white shorts / socks

If they wear it in the third round away to that lot, expect trouble.

So, if their winger puts the ball in our box, does it make him a zebra crossing then?

Is it too late to rush out production of a one off kit for this game?

Interestingly, it's now believed that the zebras stripes evolved as it gives them a slight advantage in putting off flies and other biting insects, rather than lions.

They put a 'zebra coat' on horses in a recent study and it did indeed prevent flies from landing on them in the same numbers.
