Man City's official YouTube channel has provided a lot of unexpected entertainment over its
relatively short existence and has already become a model for other clubs to follow. It does,
however, go off the rails from time to time (City kitman Les Chapman's "nature watch" segment where
he tracks down a ginger kid in his underpants).
Kammy's costume change Soccer Saturday reporter Chris Kamara took advantage of the array of winter
wear on display at QPR's match against Wolves at the weekend by wearing a different outfit each
time presenter Jeff Stelling checked in with him. Explaining his prank, Kammy said: "I jokingly
heard him tell one reporter wearing a hat [.

Challenging the mascot's child-friendly image In England, mascots are cuddly, blundering buffoons
with a penchant for winding up opposing fans and scoring penalties. In Mexico, mascots are Satan's
pets. At least if you happen to support Club Tijuana, who used their club mascot to scare
supporters into buying their new kit.
Ah weel fro ze gloves in your general deerecshon OTP isn't quite sure if this response was prompted
by the Shaun Derry foul that forced Yohan Cabaye off the pitch during Newcastle's match against
QPR, or by the fact that neither the ref, his team-mates, his manager or the physio appeared to
believe he was [.
Lionel Messi won his third Ballon D'Or this week. To celebrate he will be donning a very special
pair of boots for Barcelona's match against Real Betis this weekend. The customised adizero F50
boots have been produced in a celebratory gold colourway and feature the flag of Argentina, the
years of Leo's Ballon d'Or successes [.
'Arry angered by sock butchery Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp is said to launched a dressing room
rant at his players over their new craze for cutting the feet off their socks. Football's latest
fashion fad has seen many Premier League players opting to play in tennis-style ankle socks,
believing it gives them better traction inside [.
Pocket problems Arsene Wenger's knee-length puffa jacket has long been offensive to many
onlookers... and now it has turned against its owner too. The Arsenal boss found it surprisingly
difficult to put his hands in his pockets during last night's defeat to Fulham. Spotted on 101GG
They don't know when to stop Liverpool continued to deal with Luis Suarez's eight-match ban for
racially abusing Patrice Evra with class and dignity... by getting all their players to wear Luis
Suarez t-shirts before yesterday evening's 0-0 draw with Wigan. All the Reds' players, including
Suarez himself, wore a t-shirt featuring his image on [.
Mr pink star, who do you think you are? Italians are known for their style, with the catwalks of
Milan dripping with the latest fashions. It seems that Turin didn't quite get the memo. Last night
Juventus took on Udinese, with place at the top of the league for the winners at stake. However,
Juve [..
Is this the worst hat ever? It might just be. This Wigan fans donned a festive hat, probably in
anticipation of a stuffing at the hands of Chelsea. But it wasn't to be as Jordi Gomez bagged a
late equaliser to secure a 1-1 draw for the Latics. Great news for Roberto Martinez, but not [...]
Nice gear Arsenal star Jack Wilshere has taken to Twitter to out Bacary Sagna as the owner of this
horrendous cardigan. The offending/offensive piece of gear was suspended from the ceiling of
Arsenal's dressing room presumably at their London Colney training ground while Wilshere engaged
his Twitter followers in a game of Guess [.
In an age when football merchandise tends to consist of club logos printed onto cheap tat made from
acrylic or polyester, it's always reassuring to come across something a bit different. Something
with a touch of class. So we've teamed up with Savile Rogue to give you the chance to win one of
the world's [.
Shirt numbers become a revenue stream Sevilla are offering their supporters the chance to get their
ugly mugs on their hero's shirt. The La Liga side have lauched a scheme allowing fans to buy a 2mm
x 2mm square within a shirt number of a player of their choice. The tiny photo will then appear

A pants display from City Manchester City's Champions League campaign is teetering on the edge of
disaster after last night's 2-1 defeat to Napoli. But the loss was not the biggest embarrassment of
the night. No, that honour was reserved for sub Samir Nasri, who displayed some very interesting
boxer shorts before joining the action.
Nice pants His mammoth wages and Manchester City's asking price seems to have stalled all the
options for Carlos Tevez to continue his career at another football club. But he has found
alternative employment as a pyjama model. The Argentine has been hanging around South American golf
courses showing off his leisurewear.
Some great Spanish sock-painting Real Madrid keeper Iker Casillas had to become a victim of
graffiti in order to take to the field for his side's match against Valencia on Saturday. The Spain
international was spray painted to get his kit to meet the referee's expectations. The match
officials were not happy at a considerable [.
As we mentioned the other day, Adidas' boot with a brain is now with us. The f50 miCoach monitors
the performance of the wearer during matches using a speed cell inserted under the insole of the
boot. OTP has already received its boots (see photo below), so now lesser mortals such as Lionel
Messi, David [.
Out with the new and in with the old Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli is not unacquainted
with wardrobe malfunctions (who could forget his bib antics), but this moment from Italy's match
against Uruguay is particularly puzzling. Having played the first half in the correct attire,
Balotelli emerged for the second period wearing Italy's old [.

You might recall that in the summer OTP witnessed some strange going on with a blacked out Adidas
'boot with a brain'. That boot has since become the Adidas f50 miCoach, which allows players to
track performance on the pitch. See it in action in the video above.

England players and the FA are pleased that a compromise has been reached in their puppy row with
FIFA ahead of Saturday's friendly with Spain. The FA wanted England players to have puppies
attached to their shirts for the match, but this was deemed to be in breach of FIFA rules. After a
brief impasse, [.
Headgear. Cech. Facemask. Cech. Chest guard. Not yet. Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech spent a fair
chunk of Saturday's match at Blackburn on the ground receiving treatment for a nose injury. He
eventually got up and played on with a rather fetching nose bandage in place for the remainder of
the game. Now he's emerged with [.
There is some debate about whether football should have a place in the Olympics, given that it
should be the height of any competitor's career. Does a footballer have too many higher priorities?
Well who cares, the clobber looks decent. Despite the Welsh FA already revealing that they would be
less than happy if their [.

Is the deal done or are they in Seine? David Beckham's much-touted move to Frech side PSG seems to
be edging closer to reality after the Ligue 1 outfit ordered 20,000 personalised shirts with his
name on the back. That's a lot of shirts to shift if they didn't think they were going to get [...]
Genius Fireworks at Old Trafford! Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli has opened the scoring in
the Manchester derby with a great goal totally against the run of play. Having found the net, the
young Italian calmly lifted his jersey to reveal this 'Why Always Me?' t-shirt. We don't know why
it's always you, Mario, but [.
Do I not like those Ex-England manager Graham Taylor has this morning been unveiled as the face of
a new shoe aimed at stopping football managers having embarrassing touchline falls. The Sho'ot was
commissioned by the makers of the Football Manager video game amid concerns that too many gaffers
were being caught out by slick [.
Och aye the noo shirt Scotland have launched their new kit ahead of tonight's decisive Euro 2012
qualifier against Spain at Hampden. How much wear they get out of it very much depends on whether
they can pull off a shock result against the World Cup and European Championship holders. If they
do manage to [.
African artefact set for museum display Germany coach Joachim Loew's lucky blue jumper from the
2010 World Cup is to take pride of place in a museum after accumulating several owners in a short
space of time. Loew gave his beloved knitwear to a children's charity, who pocketed a cool €1
million by flogging it [.
Hats off to Song Arsenal youngster Emmanuel Frimpong decided to out fellow Gunners midfielder Alex
Song for wearing this rather interesting hat today. Frimpong wrote on Twitter: "Alex Song decided
to turn up with this hat today woooow." As far as we can tell in the light, it appears to be
encrusted with safety pins [.
Y-affront A Bath City youth match descended into farce last night after a disciplinary dispute over
underpants. Bath had six players ordered off the pitch in the 6-0 defeat to Newport because their
underwear was deemed to breach FA rules. The side's manager Billy Clark was among those in trouble
with the referee as he [.

Like Bayer Leverkusen striker Sidney Sam endeared himself to Chelsea fans ahead of the two sides
meeting in their Champions League clash with an inflammatory Facebook post. The ex-Hamburg man
posted a photo on his Facebook page of himself in front of a Chelsea shirt with his thumbs down. He
helpfully captioned his photo: "Who [.
Barton put the boot in QPR's players are already feeling Joey Barton's impact on the club. Striker
Jay Bothroyd this morning found his footwear was a hot topic of conversation for Barton's hundreds
of thousands of Twitter followers. The Hoops' new midfielder is (quite rightly) intent on mocking
Bothroyd for wearing Ugg boots.
Did you see our video of the Richard Dunne faceplant earlier? Well, after smashing his face on a
metal grid at the edge of the pitch, the Republic of Ireland defender had to swap his shirt because
of the blood on his jersey. Dunne was fixed up with a spare shirt, but the referee took [...]
Once a blue, always a blue Wayne Rooney is likely to be left out of pocket by Mikel Arteta's
transfer deadline day switch from Everton to Arsenal. Rooney's wife Coleen yesterday revealed that
their son Kai had Arteta's name and number on the back of his personalised Everton kit. She
tweeted: "Arh Kai has got [.
