StefOn Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 The Inter shirt is GREAT, one of the best if not the best in recent years. Another shot of th Dortmund home here:Not too fancy but much better than last year's Nike yellow & white stripes debacle. They will add a sponsor to the shirt, but the company, RAG, is currently undergoing restructuring and does not know it's new name. No kidding. The sponsor will give a shirt away to every one of the about 40.000 season ticket holder, nice move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Ship Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 If I were the sponsor I'd be a bit concerned.The sponsor is the owner. Nobody said that new shirt will be the official one for the next season. At the moment they are going to use them just for the last match of the current championship. My PicturesMy Portfolio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not according to this:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massimo_MorattiWhile we're at it, Wikipedia also has some distasteful associations with the new shirt:During the Fascist era, the name "Internazionale" was not looked upon kindly, and the club played as Ambrosiana, wearing white shirts emblazoned with a red cross. In 1932, the club was permitted to append its old moniker, and was known as Ambrosiana-Inter. Finally in 1942, the club reverted to its original name, Internazionale.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F.C._Internazionale_Milano The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

Ahah, that's funny. It's like if I come to you and try to explain with some articles founded around the net the history of your American team.Ambrosiana did take that red cross from the Milano's city emblem. Then you article add nothing.About Moratti which is one of the owner, oh well, that's a long story. Yeah, ok, if you want the "official" story take that as it comes but in all honesty there is another company behind the property of F.C. Internazionale. Did you never heard about Olimpia S.p.A. (don't use Wiki, please)? No, because you know nothing about this team. My PicturesMy Portfolio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Hey, now, no need to get snippy. This isn't personal. I'm well aware that Wikipedia is a dubious source, but a quick search didn't turn up anything to dispute it. Especially if, as you imply, the finances are deliberately murky.Instead of getting your dander up, I would appreciate it if you could educate us on the history and finances of the team. That's the beauty of these boards. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaTo Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Here we go with some interesting new kits:Germany/Spain:France/Denmark:Fulham FC:Personally, I don't like the Germany kit. Germay MUST wear whole white kits...but i'll buy one..The spain kit is not bad. But what the **** is this crap around the crest?! Are they trying to create a retro-look. I think they failed...To the France kit...I LOVE it. It's modern but still classic.And for the Denmark kit...I think there's not much to say there. Very classic, like every of their kits I can remember...Good job, adidas.KaTo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zjac7 Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Fulham kits are nice... but what's up with the Total 90 socks? I thought Nike had mothballed that style by now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Idk why, but that Germany kit just screams out pseudo late 70s-early 80s style.And I hope Spain isn't actually going to wear black shorts, that'd would be interestingly bad.And talk about plain, you take away the sponsor logo and Fulham's basically wearing a polo shirt with a nice logo on it.

Gothamite Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 This could well be the biggest upgrade of the year. Yet another quality kit from Nike - I continue to be amazed. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordie_delini Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 While Fulham's kit looks great, it's a lower-end Nike template. I think Nike could have stepped up and done something unique for the Cottagers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totc Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Inter actually wore those jerseys today as they hold the trophy aloft That looks like something the England national team or perhaps AC Milan should be wearing Or, Brown University.That would look bad-ass in the Ivy League!

gordie_delini Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Don't get me wrong, the look for Fulham is great, but it would have been nice for them to get the nicer kits from nike that they supply for big teams like arsenal, man u, inter, barça, etc. The dead giveaway that these are the generic, can-buy-them-from-a-teamwear-supplier-such-as-soccer.com is the nike soccer logo on the left sleeve - the big teams don't have that, but the smaller, lower budget clubs do. anyway, like i already said, nike should have stepped up and given Fulham something a bit nicer.

MJWalker45 Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Fulham has the last words on those kits. And actually the look refers back to the early 90's when adidas was the kit sponsor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordie_delini Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Well I've done it - I've found a vector version of the FULL new logo for the FA Premier League. I'm so, so happy...still working on finding the typeface...any help guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Sorry, man, but I still think you've got your hands on an inaccurate logo, preliminary or otherwise. Your vector looks great, but it doesn't match what the Premier League is actually using. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

gordie_delini Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Gothamite, this logo came straight out of one of the latest official premier league documents.
