Oh I completely agree it's no longer confined to any one class anywhere, simply that those old associations still remain.

It was a Smith Corona, like this one... ahh memories
It used to have a delete button which had like a tippex style ribbon and would just try and blank what you'd typed (unless you had it in auto mode, which was just normal delete)
You've just alienated half this board... not to mention 80% of THE ENTIRE INTERNET!!
try HANDWRITING your work... with like, a fountain pen!!!
That was Burkinshaw's famous 1984 quote wasn't it...?
"There used to be Rugby and Cricket ...over there"
look like it's true (found on twitter), not sure what to think :/
Yesterday I saw that an Under Armour outlet in South Carolina was selling these. This isn't fake.
SHOOT THE MESSENGER!!!!
You had best be lying.
Where in South Carolina, may I ask?
UA Outlet Store at the Tanger Outlet Mall in North Charleston, SC (from what is says on Facebook).
Here's the picture that was posted. It's slightly different. All of the logos match.
Wish this was a joke. It's a pretty awful 3rd, especially given that this seasons was pretty gorgeous.
Good point, except why would the sponsor be on training apparel?
It's been done before. The English national team for instance have Vauxhall on their training gear, and Man U have a new deal for next year:

Also, AIA are paying us a ridiculous amount of money for a club of our size not even playing in the CL. Wouldn't be surprised at all if a portion of that was to get their brand slapped on the training gear.
Not that you don't have a point, but you do realize you're comparing Spurs with England and Manchester United, right?
A man can wish, can't he?
At any rate, most training apparel is stuff like zip-up jackets and stuff like that. They don't normally make a training apparel that actually looks like a match kit, do they?
At any rate, I can confirm that those outlets aren't fictional. North Charleston is a blighted wasteland, though.
Of course, which makes you have to consider why exactly AIA are paying us close to what the sponsors of Man U and Liverpool are paying them when we don't have near as much recognizability.
Any time a city has a cardinal direction in the name it tends to be a pretty awful place.
Exact same cut in the shirt as this:
just with more eye-catching bullshit and a sponsor in there. Again, I just find it extremely bizarre these would be on shelves already close to a month before the official release. New marketing method maybe? Go ahead and release one kit for marketing purposes? And why just the shirt? Are the shorts being sold as well?
