New home kit?

Re: New home kit???

A pedant writes; I thought "sound wave" would mean "sound wave".

Thus;

^A sound wave. It goes up, then it goes down. It doesn't go up and down simultaneously.

That there stitching on the shirt is just a plot of stereo amplitude. Not really a catchy idea, or particularly visual. Presumably it's a recording of the fans.

Please give comprehensive details of the areas in which you are pedantic and the ways this is manifested giving examples where possible. For instance, if I was to list the ingredients by percentage volume of a packet of Asda Vegetable Lasagne (from the chilled counter, not frozen) would you be able to spot a deliberate error I might slip into the figures? I like to compare myself with those of similar mind.

Indeed, I believe I already have spotted your deliberate error.

On any chilled prepared food, ingredients are listed by order of volume (from most abundant ingredient to least). Only in the case of a few key ingredients, like meat, are specific percentages by weight listed.

Whilst it is true that a keen mind may construct a fuller picture by cross referencing this latter source of specific information, against the comprehensive (but self-referential) listing AND the additional nutritional information, short of the use of a centrifuge, no combination of inductive methods and mathematical transformations will permit one to arrive at a comprehensive, accurate, percentage-ingredient breakdown.

Quite magnificent. You are indeed worthy of a place alongside me on the pedants pedestal. Let us together memorise the winning half time draw ticket numbers for the seasons 1987-2005 in the hope of trapping some less minutia minded soul with a welter of indisputable detail.

I really hope that is the new home top. Looks the business and I can see us destroying Real Madrid in it, to progress nicely into the semi's of the CL.

Re: New home kit???

I must admit, I'm feeling somewhat trepidatious about the new home shirt. This sound wave idea sounds like a cheap gimmick. I'm sure that pretentious bloke who designs them will tell us all about its deep metaphorical meaning etc, but I can only imagine it looking gash. Like a throwback to those shirts in the 80s with the triangles / broken lines all over them. Surely it has been established by now that the best-looking shirts are the ones that maintain a simple 'classic' look, free of gimmicks.

That's exactly what I was going to say.

If it is, I'm not a fan of the black Etihad and Umbro logo. Stands out like a sore thumb, doesn't go at all with the sky blue.
