Well by all accounts the away shirt is selling better than the home shirt for the first time ever

Surely Great Britain is red white and blue. The home nations have different colours. N.I. Green and white, Scotland blue and white and Wales the red dragon on a white background. England the cross of St. George. What is wrong with identifying with those colours if you are from these countries. We can all get behind G.B. and the red white and blue in the athletics, golf, tennis etc.

No one as yet able to explain what is "woke" about this flag.

There's nowt Woke about the flag fella. The problem is that too many people pin their own insecurities on national identity and patriotism and use any 'slight' (either real or not) as a rationale for the fact that their own lives are shit.

I can assure you my life's not shit but I still believe a nations flag should not be tampered with by a global conglomerate and try & then brush it of by saying its just a playful update! They can keep their playful update and shove it where the sun dont shine!!

I'm still bemused what you think is "woke" about all this.

And. Serious question. Have you ever in your life voted Tory or UKIP?

How does who I vote for have anything to do with this debate? Serious question!

[Bessie Red]

Playful update.

Thats not the England flag you lemon!

The real scandal is the price, not really bothered about the flag, always think the St George’s flag looks a bit naff on a garment, makes it look cheap. People have messed with flags on sports shirts for years, it’s a designer’s prerogative, quite funny how upset the GB News viewers get though, you know those patriots who’ve ruined are country.

Don't let go of any of them straws mate, keep them clutched tightly.

Anyone who is annoyed by an adaptation of a flag needs to sort their life out.

I think I'm out of my depth here.

There’s a difference between using the shapes and colours in a flag as the source for a design (like the GB athletics kit), and the flag itself..

No reason why the England kit couldn’t have the cross shape element in the kit design, in whatever format.  But that which is supposed to be the flag itself, should stay as is.

And we think WE have an issue here...
