Just when you think the the World Cup was the nadir of bad shirt day on a rugby field, the Heineken Cup comes along.Look at these monsters!
Toulouse are now playing in a pastel pink with grey socks and shorts. Treviso switched to Barbie pink. And the great gleaming turd among the sorry bunch is the new Stade Francais strip in diarrhoea brown with pink flowers.
I tell you now, Stade will win nothing in this strip. How can their pack eye each other before the game and reckon yes we're up for this. More likely they'll be saying "Zut alors, do I look as much of a sorry dickhead in this kit as Remy?" Not a positive mindset for playing Bristol in the lashing rain, and so it transpired.
Once again, we, the true rugby fan should point our fingers at the marketing chimps and say: "No more". And for god's sake don't buy the kit. Don't traditional colours count for anything any more.
