07/08 Umbro top


Cigaro

Recommended Posts

Ok, not sure if I'm slow on this, or if no one else has noticed but bear with me anyhoo.

 

Look at the sleeves of your 07/08 shirt. You'll notice that the glued "stitching" isnt uniform like regular stitching. It goes:

 

..-. --- --- - -... .- .-.. .-.. -... -.-- ..- -- -... .-. ---

 

Now for some reason I thought "I wonder if thats Morse Code? Why would it be in that random pattern?"

 

So after looking it up:

 

..-. --- --- - -... .- .-.. .-.. -... -.-- ..- -- -... .-. ---

No one sent me anything.

 

I'd just taken it off after 5s and noticed the weird pattern, so investigated.

 

For some reason I feel less mad after it did spell something though:D

Fat Striker

Article in the Guardian yesterday about the design of the new England shirt

 

http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2009/mar/26/england-football-kit-leaked-pictures-marina-hyde

 

""The detail is in the minutiae," he declares, "even down to the spacing on the ventilation holes. The configuration of the holes is actually taken from the position of some of the roses on the three lions crest. It's a bit of a Da Vinci Code, a 'rose code' if you like." -David Blanch (Senior Designer)

I've seen next years home kit and it's got this above the badge...

That'd be an amazing sight done en masse at Tynie with maroon and white flags.....

 

 

almost Pythonesque too.

 

 

 

 

 

Can see several eyes being taken out in the process though....

The Wicker Man

Le coq caught on to this - the hibs top for season 08-09 has this inbuilt 'design flaw'.
