Its official...it's purple

truth in the end is that we supporters are to blame. if those hideous away shirts sold badly, they would stick to the traditional colours. nike doesn't make kits to please us, they make the kits that will sell the best for their best profit.

it's those fucking foreign supporters who'll buy any shit we make that are to blame :lol:


and this time i do meant it seriously! :|

Is there not an ounce of pride left in those fuckers who run our club? Quite happy to send us out looking like Man Utd, without even batting an eyelid. Tossers.

I was never gonna buy any shirts anyway, no matter the design. But you know you'll see thousands of mongs in this around The Grove every match :(

And all will be well in the Church of Wenger, for sayeth the blinkered man "I obey thou chosen Board Members, Lord Wenger. Arsene be praised. Baaaaaaaaa." :roll:

No surprises there then, another piece of utter tripe produced by Nike!
If the rumours are true about Adidas making our kit next season then there's hope!

My marketing blurb would have been -

"Rise up for the purple headed warriors" :barscarf:

Disgusting, horrific, revolting and vile. Words fail me with this fucking club right now. What gets to me the most is the ridiculous 'stories' that accompany the kits. This year it's yet again about Arsenal's rich history as a blah, blah, blah... D'ya know what? If history means so much to you, make it yellow and blue and start winning some things. Yellow and blue and trophies, that's Arsenal's history.

I already knew it would be a disgusting away kit, but I'm even more annoyed by the slogan they've come up with.
"Purple Reign" ... Oh dear. :banghead:

By the way, who the hell is Rizzle Kicks? I know his name from SongPop ( :lol: ) but is he actually famous?

I'm not too bothered by the colour, just think the stripes are too thin...HOWEVER that Ultra Pink Dayglow garb that shez is gonna have to wear just does NOT suit him.....Feccckkkkk - Mind you it will mean the opposition forwards will need to wear shades...and any passing back will mean our defence can't miss him (Hopefully! :roll: :oops: ).

Would still prefer the traditional Yellow with blue trim...but I know only too well those days are gone - along with the way we were once thought of as fans and are now customers - and so The Arsenal become a franchise under the silent hammer of Kroenke the non-investing *word censored*.

Edit:Also I notice they're using The Ox, Gibbs, Jack the Lad and Song to market it....which means that's who wenker see's as our future...and so at least djourou and diaby aren't involved, but neither is Feo....does that mean ????? :roll: :barscarf: :wink:

I agree 100% BG, BUT - The sheeple aka: AKB's will buy anything that's put on sale with the Arsenal emblem on it, it once was (Literally) a badge of "Honour", but now is merely a device to lure in yet more gullibles and set those tills a Kerrrrchingingggg! (and it isn't JUST foriegn supporters - though I'm sure if a survey were to be done the colour purple would rate very highly in Asia and the African continents) KERRRCHINNNGGG! :banghead:
