officeglenn Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 OK, so English 7th-tier football doesn't (and maybe shouldn't?) come up here a lot, so this is just so absurd: NXT UK logo will appear on the club's home kits this season. In 2019, WWE opened their UK training centre in Enfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh, the latest leaks show it's "BVB 09" between the stripes instead of "DORTMUND", and it's still set in Gill Sans Extra Bold, which is such a goofy looking font. There were rumblings they might add the crest in the middle of the chest on that one, but Puma may just be forging ahead blindly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRed618 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I read the regulations… it IS legal… Article 15, Paragraph 03: The team or country name may be used in place of the team emblem, in which case the stipulations of Paragraph 14.03 apply and the height of the letters must not exceed 5cm. incredibly stupid, but legal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GFB Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Man, I don't have a good grasp on where the line falls between cultural appreciation and cultural appropriation, but that Ajax kit feels like it lands on the wrong side of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GFB Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Doing a throwback is fine... However, doing a throwback of a throwback but putting it in your weird manufacturer's template from the same time period is a bridge too far for me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AstroCree Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Teamgeist template is one of my favorites but it's gonna look so weird on teams who weren't with Adidas at the time. Seeing the Arsenal kit looks so wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man United's version is black with red and white accents. Pretty flipping boring. At least Real Madrid actually wore some version of this template before.
