The new U.S. 2010 Nike jerseys?

Project 2010 16 November @ 10:23 PM EST

I'll start this off by saying that I'm not usually one to perpetuate rumors (and this could easily be a hoax), but we love discussing the USA's jerseys here at Project 2010, so this seemed relevant. Over at Big Soccer, we saw some mock ups of what might possibly be the jersey the USA will wear in South Africa, so we thought we'd pass it along.

Now that Argentina has finally secured a spot in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, they can present the new uniform to be used next year. The new kit is very loyal to past Argentinian shirts and does a great job of keeping the pajama feel

Today Raymond Domenech presented France's new kit to be used at the World Cup in 2010. Not my favorite one to be honest. What do you think?

Better know a kit: A history of the modern U.S. soccer jersey

Project 2010 13 October @ 01:58 PM EST

We're taking a look at the USA men's soccer jerseys of the last 25 or so years, not only to provide a bit of history, but also as a bit of a refresher before looking toward the future of the USA's kit. My main complaint about the USA kit is that there's no continuity. Unlike most national team kits, the design has changed drastically each time adidas or Nike has unveiled their latest designs.

Thursday Throwdown: A to Z

Premiership Talk Blog 03 September @ 12:38 AM EST

Another week of Premiership action is now in the books, and Thursday means one thing: it's time for the Thursday Throwdown from A to Z. Here we go...

AÂ is for Anelka. Chelsea fans should be counting their lucky stars that both Nicolas Anelka and Didier Drogba are in spectacular form.

Fat guy in a little kit

Dirty Tackle 30 August @ 07:27 PM EST

No, that's not a picture of Peter Crouch from before his move to Spurs, that's new Pompey owner Sulaiman Al Fahim going all Mike Ashley on everyone and wearing his side's shirt, which appears to fit him a bit snug around the...everywhere region, as he watched them lose to Man City at Fratton Park today.

Soundoff: Your Favorite Kits.

The Offside 09 July @ 08:00 AM EST
Yesterday's delve into the maniacal madness behind Lorient's new kits brought about a discussion to some of our favorite kits. And with football desperately trying to work its way into your wallet on an annual basis, it's not really easy to weed through the thousands and thousands of choices. The sponsorship contracts typically run for [. Click to continue reading...

Fashion Faux Pas: Lorient Unveil A Halloween Nascar Racing Suit.

The Offside 08 July @ 05:30 PM EST
[Third] Oftentimes we attack certain kits with hyperbole for effect. This is not one of those cases. This is genuinely the most hideous kit I have ever seen, confirmed up by a brief short poll at The Offside Global Headquarters. So awful it leads to the question: Has anyone refused to sign with a team based [. Click to continue reading...

Obscure Kits From British Football History #10

Some People are On The Pitch 08 July @ 03:12 AM EST
Sheffield Wednesday (home)
1965 - 1972
As a football fan of some advanced years there comes a point in your life when you find yourself pondering some of the quirkier aspects of the game's history. Things like 'When was the last time Ron Atkinson was a colour other than orange?' or 'Was Bryan Robson born injured? Click to continue reading...

Last Roll of The Dice for Cruel Hand Luke

Premiership Talk Blog 06 July @ 08:14 AM EST

On the 20th of June 2006 in Cologne, Germany, I was sat high behind the goal in the RheinEnergieStadion (then called simply 'The FIFA World Cup Stadium') when in the fourth minute, a figure crumpled to the ground. It was hard to see who it was from my unique vantage point, but the man sitting to my left immediately turned round and said 'any money it's Owen'.

Flamengo finally got rid of Nike. The new sponsor? Olympikus, a Brazilian brand who is debuting in the football world. The result? Not that good.

New Season. New Shirts.

Joga Bonito Mundo 23 June @ 04:20 PM EST

With new kits being unveiled, and some still in speculation this is a tense time for fans. So far this year we have seen some nice looking kits, and some awful ones. Below is a quick summary of each Premier League teams new wardrobe.

Arsenal :

Again, the Gunners kits are designed by Nike and their main sponsors are Emirates Airlines.

Puma Bows to the Power of the People

The Offside 23 June @ 02:30 PM EST
Have you ever seen your team's new kit and felt the inexplicable sudden urge to go shopping at Abercrombie & Fitch, or some other less-than-stylish retail outlet? Chances are you have, and despite you being the one who'll shell out the big bucks for the kit and will be staring at it for the next [... Click to continue reading...

Manutd.com to unveil new kit next week

Manutd Blog 23 June @ 02:03 PM EST

Manutd.com will unveil the new kit on July 1st, but we already have it here.

As you could see from the Rio and Rooney pictures, AIG is still the front shirt sponsor. You could also see the black V across the chest

The players will don the kit for the first time during their pre-season tour of Asia next month.

Premiership Talk Celebrates One Year!

Premiership Talk Blog 06 June @ 11:52 PM EST

Another season of the Premier League is now in the books, and Premiership Talk today celebrates its first birthday! On June 7, 2008, Premiership Talk was founded, and a year later the site stands lightyears ahead of its basic roots...although we're still talking about the same things today that we were a year ago (the Cristiano Ronaldo transfer saga was the very first post on Premiership Talk).

United to No Longer Be Sponsored by the American Government

The Offside: Manchester United 03 June @ 11:18 AM EST

It has been officially announced that Manchester United have agreed to a new kit sponsor beginning in the 2010-2011 season. United (in the form of David Gill) have put pen to paper with Aon Corporation, the world's leading risk adviser and human capital consultant, on a four year deal believed to be worth £80 million (£20m per season).

The Long and Winding Road

Premiership Talk Blog 25 May @ 11:02 AM EST

With the Premier League over for another season. Here are some of the things I noticed from the 08/09 campaign:

Like a bat out of Hull

Hull City were everyone's favorite to go straight back down this season. They seemed like a sweet little feel good story, content to have their moment in the big leagues before quickly sinking back to lower level obscurity where they could be patronized by football and non-football people alike for sounding like a thoroughly dull and uninspiring place to live.

Football Kits 2009/10: Who makes what

Some People are On The Pitch 06 May @ 08:55 AM EST
Back in August 2008, Some People Are On The Pitch wrote one of its most popular articles ever. It wasn't a lengthy thesis on the things we hate most about Cristiano Ronaldo, nor was it an online poll asking you for your happiest memories involving Milton Keynes Dons. Somewhat surprisingly, it was an article listing the kit manufacturers of each of the 92 Premier and Football League teams for 2008/09. Click to continue reading...

New England Kit: A Return to Glory?

They Think It’s All Over… 24 March @ 05:13 AM EST
For a while now English football fans have been waiting with bated breath to see the kit that our players will wear as they attempt, once more, to bring football home with an assault on South Africa in the 2010 World Cup (provided we don't cock up qualification again). Now it seems that pictures of the [. Click to continue reading...

2009 - 2010 Manchester United Jersey

Manutd Blog 19 March @ 03:58 PM EST
Pictures of Manchester United's 2009/2010 home and away kit have been leaked. The kit was designed to commemorate United's first FA Cup, against Bristol City. I hope these are not the real kits, they are hideous, Nike could do so much more with this concept  and make an amazing looking kit. Bookmark This Post Click to continue reading...

New Italy Kit Unveiled

The Offside: Italy 04 February @ 02:22 PM EST

Some of you remember a couple of months ago when I posted that Puma was planning to kit Italy with a light blue/brown shorts combo to be worn at this summer's Confederations Cup. Well, Puma has in fact made the new kit, but it is not as dramatic as we first thought. Puma has decided to celebrate Italy's glorious past of the 1930's, when the Azzurri were back to back World Cup champions in 1934 and 1938.

Obscure Kits From British Football History #9

Chelsea (away)
1978 - 1981
You'll have gathered by now that SPAOTP are big fans of ITV4's brilliant retrospective of vintage football, The Big Match Revisited. The series showing hour-long re-runs of football action from the 1978/79 season is a joy to behold for anyone that yearns for a more innocent time before rampant commercialisation took over.

United News: Sponsorship, Kits & Others….

The Offside: Manchester United 20 January @ 07:27 PM EST

A good day today for United. An exciting if not very solid win against Derby County in the Carling Cup Semi-Final sees us through to the Final to face either Spurs or Burnley, probably Spurs.

Aside from the usual stuff, turns out that Sir Alex was today voted the best manager of the last 12 years.

The Shoes Maketh the Man

Sniffing The Touchline 17 November @ 11:50 AM EST

Often I have thought that the one thing holding me back from going pro was not having the right pair of Astroturf shoes. Now however, I think my time has come because finally I have got an awesome pair of Adidas F30.8 indoors to stroll around in majestically while I carve open many a hapless opposition team.

Shirt Legend: Liverpool (home)

Some People are On The Pitch 04 November @ 03:30 AM EST
It's been a long time, folks. Almost a year has passed since our last Shirt Legend poll which aimed to find out what you thought was the best ever Scotland home shirt since 1964.
At the time of writing, 369 of you have registered your vote and the most favoured Scotland shirt so far is the one worn during the 1978 World Cup. Click to continue reading...
