Fred T.

My ODI shirt will be out of style? What to do! Better fire up the old slow boat from Down Under, because one's coming this way! [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

plattopus Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 When I see green with gold accents I always think of South Africa. I get the whole "baggy green" symbolism, but gold has sort of become Australia's primary colour, at least when it comes to ODI cricket. I'll reserve judgement until I see them in action, but at the moment I think I prefer the old canary yellow numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr79 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Typical adidas... first they changed the Socceroos to green shirts and now the cricket team. Rather mean of them to change now after we only got new shirts last summer.Looks like a classy shirt all the same, even if I keep thinking it belongs on South Africa.Has to be an improvement on the abominations they used last summer where the three stripes were randomly thrown on over the other design elements, that grey 20/20 shocker and the green "away" shirt despite there being no other yellow team.

Gazzzaf Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 By the looks of it, they are trying to change the green so that its different to that of SA's, it looks to be darker and more bluish than bottle green. Interesting nonetheless.Hopefully they will also keep a gold design to at least use against other green teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
