That away shirt from 03/04 is absolutely dreadful.

Quite funny, the Bournemouth one that's been done is also a laugh. One disagreement though is our worst kit, should be that awful silver one we wore against United in 14/15

That green and black away kit from years ago takes some beating.

"Finally, the modern desire to label everything unexpected as a miraculous fairy tale is a bit sickening, given that Bournemouth’s owner Maxim Demin is reportedly worth hundreds of millions of pounds. In my head, Demin is actually called Maxim Denim, who sounds like the hero of a Levi’s advert set in the year 2109."

Funny to read some of that site, I'm going to save it and read it later when I'm in need of a laugh.

Clegghall,

I was torn between "liking" your post, or reporting it due to a memory flashback of that shirt. Truly a shocker.

On the article itself, three things.

1. The Bee represents the industry the town was renowned for.
2. It's "Melchett" as in General Sir Anthony Cecil Hogmanay Melchett.
3. When addressing the heir to the throne, it's Your Royal Highness, not "mate", you bumbling fool. Baaaaahhhhh.

Did anyone read the comments at the bottom?

This conversation was a little weird:

David Robins · Orlando, Florida
The things I wouldn't let Sean Dyche do to me are not worth doing.

He definitely carries his weight in his thighs and arse which, in my experience, make for a memorable butt-busting.

What a crock of patronising sh1te. Appears to have been written by some excited giddy " new fan" of the game moaning about a " dull club shop" and "boring kit" ffs what has the game come to when these happy clappers are more bothered about a girly multi coloured kit and the ability to buy half n half scarves than actually watch a match.

There's also the nonsensical " wooden seats and dank interior ,Lowry cloth cap" nonsense. Though this will be based off the away end under the cricket field stand.

He also squeals like a milking maid covered in cow p1ss when he goes on ( incorrectly) about the Sterling chant saying it was in November" 6 months after the euros" ( it was August 2nd game ) totally missing that we chanted at the over paid show pony because he was a cheating waste of space .

I still think a line in car dashboard/backshelf bobble-heads would go down a treat, though last time I suggested that it was to include one of our stalwarts amongst the range I got a ban :D

We played Liverpool in our second game, you realise Sterling left Liverpool for Man City over a year and a half ago? It was November when we played City.

In 2003/04 we had 2 shirt sponsors
Lanway sponsored our home shirts
VK sponsored our away ones which meant we played virtually all the away games in the away kit.

If you ever get your hands on a Claret VK shirt it would be rare.

Everything that's just tumbled out of your quivering lipped phizzog is either wrong or has missed the point by such a distance it's being sucked in to the black hole the vacuum of your common sense has created.

Not as good as Deadspins why your team sucks series but a nice effort. It is a pity it fell into stereotype jokes instead of trying something original.

I have that "dreadful shirt", and it's one of my most prized possessions. Article obviously written by Saxoman under an alias.

I did indeed mix up the city/liverpool game ,no problem with your views on my opinion ( it's a forum after all) though dont lower yourself to personal insults ,it's generally the mark of a coward. Enjoy your evening
