Waving the flag for England
 

Those of you living in Canada who feel the urge to "wave the flag" during the world cup (well, for the week and a bit we will be participating anyway :D ) might be interested to know you can get half price genuine replica shirts from the FAs own website.

http://www.england-direct.com
(the price next to the "sale" logo is not the sale price, its the old price)

By the time you pay shipping it works out at about $50 for a shirt, less if you dont get a tax ding on delivery, which is substantially less than the $140 they wanted in places like sportchek last time or the $80US asked at worldsoccershop.com

Isnt it racist and right wing and doesnt it single you out as a nazi sympathiser to wear anything connected to england and bearing the red cross on a white back ground?

Re: Waving the flag for England
 

Yes, but lots of people are comfortable with that.

Re: Waving the flag for England
 

Just thought I'd check ;)

Anyway it wouldnt go with my white pointy hood.

Re: Waving the flag for England
 

Not in Canada. You might be mistaken for a first aider though.

Re: Waving the flag for England
 

Why? Are all first aiders soccer fans?

Red cross, white background.

Resist...must resist using the "S" word...Repeat after me. F O O T B A L...oh never mind, its like using a teacup to empty lake ontario trying to educate the neophytes over here.

Thought the international symbol for first aid was now green cross on white background??

Re: Waving the flag for England
 

Thanks useful info iaink. Yes they are very expensive here knocking them out for $120 in one of the sports shops in the Eaton Centre. Fortunately I got one for OH in the UK last year 13.99 :)

News to me. might be :confused:

No one seems to have told anyone around here if it is, but this area is not the most up to date place on the planet (thank god). Still red on white on military vehicles.
Not sure this is adding anything to the topic at hand.

A soccer shirt for the other half??? What a great swap!!! Wonder what I can swap my OH for??

Re: Waving the flag for England
 

That's the trade mark for some sort of detergent, innit ?
