Well, I've made my mind up.
Whoever's created this monstrosity should be hung, drawn and quartered.

A Frankenstein monster of a shirt.

Hello and welcome to the internet, folks.

Here you will find all the accrued knowledge of mankind, hard won and invaluable information learned through thousands of years of combined thinking from the greatest minds who ever lived.

Also, there are pictures of cats and football shirts folded to make them look like they've been sewn together. All in the same place!

On and on it goes! In endless circles and spirals.

Available from the club shops at Turf Park and Ewood Moor?

Seriously though this has to be a mock up surely- either way it's a grotesque image that once seen is impossible to unsee :(

Shirt for a combined team for a testimonial for somebody like Keith Newton ? Can’t ever remember that happening but you never know. What date period did we wear that badge

I do believe it's three or four shirts folded to look like a single piece with some basic sewn material place down the middle to make it look like a sewn-together garment.

Note the sleeves both go beyond the edge of the picture frame and the the blue collar of the Burnley shirt has been tucked in.

Mock-up, proper shirt, or whatever, don't matter.
The image itself is revolting.

Needs machine-gunning.

URGENT HEALTH WARNING

please never Don such a monstrous garment. There is a high risk of experiencing a stroke, down the left side of one's body. NHS would refuse to treat that side.

This would be ideal if I could purchase it ? Not to wear obviously. But would be ideal for an occasion coming up.

Seen one in the flesh at Rishton CC tonight, not too sure what I thought of it really, the wearer was quite proud of it though.

Its a new tool designed for the NHS.

There are so many parents waiting for tests to see if their kids have ad/HD that this is used as a triage test.

If it is put on the child and there is no reaction, then they are put in the "urgent" section of the list and should be seen within 4 weeks of the test.

If they immediately become restless, the reaction is deemed "normal" and treatment is non-essential.

If they smile and present as liking the shirt, they are diagnosed as scousers and transferred to a secure wing.
