I’ve previously stated my dislike for Arsenal’s away kit being blue.
Everyone knows that blue kits are not kits for winning things in, they’re kits which allow Robbie Fowler to score a hat-trick against you in less than 5 minutes. So imagine my surprise when I saw some pictures from the Ajax game and our lads running around in the brand spanking new blue away kit.
It’s even more minging than I had previously thought. It’s a pig’s abortion of a kit. Why do the club insist on lumping us with a blue away kit? I’ve asked before, but who decides it? Is it someone at the club, or do Nike say ‘Hey chumps, this year your away kit is going to be blue’?
Look at the pic of Kolo to your right. He doesn’t even look like an Arsenal player. That doesn’t look like an Arsenal kit. It’s poxy. As has been pointed out by many other people, it’s just too much like a Chelsea kit, and I don’t need to tell how wrong that is.
In the interests of research I took to the streets, as it were, and in old fashioned journalistic styleee, got some vox pops from Arsenal fans about the new kit. Here’s what they had to say…
“It’s shockingly bad. I wouldn’t wipe my arse with it.” – Anne Gree, Tunbridge Wells.
“My first impression was that it was horrible. Having taken a second look I was wrong. It’s fucking horrible.” – Al in Sunderland
“You couldn’t give me a suitcase full of them.” – D.Hillier, Heathrow
The fact is that blue kits are for cunty teams supported by cunty people. For example Chelsea, Rangers, Birmingham and Leicester. I won’t be buying it. I’ll never buy a blue away kit and there are thousands of people at €50 a pop who feel exactly the same way. So there you go. Not only is the blue kit crap, it also costs the club money. They’ll probably have to use generic brand urinal cakes in Ashburton Grove now. See what you’ve done Arsenal and Nike? Hope you’re happy now.
In other news, there isn’t any. Yet.
