It’s an undecided Vincent Tan shirt
I wouldn't really spend £70 on any new shirt of any club let alone to walk around like a fan of London's gimpiest football team
I noticed that, I wonder if someone at the club wants to try jump on the American Wrexham fan bandwagon and get fans of the show on board.Quote:

Not for me but Palace usually have really nice kits.Quote:

The version that I associate most with Palace (due to my age, no doubt) is here on the left and it was follwed by the more radical kit on the right (and for some inexplicable reason I bought one of those shirts myself at the time).
Attachment 5632
One would certainly get noticed wearing it.
I like these two myself. The one on the right Ajax inspired methinks.Quote:

It's not as bad as last year's.
The US is the home of ephemera. It was once pet rocks that attracted attention and bottled air was also once a fad. No doubt that interest will move on once the mundane sets in. By the way, I wonder how popular city are these days on the streets of Kuala Lumpur.....Quote:

If you read the link its the 10th Anniversary kit and very similair ie half red / half blue to the 2013/14 shirt when they got promoted to the PL.
That’ll depend on if the away kit is red…..Quote:

Apparently, the new Arsenal shirt costs £110!
No wonder people buy knock-off ones.
Obviously some have. I'm sure all the Liverpool/Man U/Chelsea/Arsenal fans will have realised they play Palace twice a season.Quote:

A bit like their 'Ultras', it all seems a bit fake
Yes you're right it was UmbroQuote:

Crap Shirt
Sad to hear there are JBs in Bridgend. It was always a City stronghold.Quote:

You can't blame them
It is predominantly a CCFC town
Porthcawl is Full on Bluebirds
It's a big town with lots of houses and very little else these daysQuote:
