What the heck?

[craigmcfc]

Christ on a bike, what a shocker!

[Bianchi on Ice]

Its more exciting than Craig levein I suppose, so onwards and upwards for the scotch

[Twobob]

Look like a tooti-fruiti

[Dronny]

Yikes!

[gmercer1]

Surely that's for charity, breast cancer or something

[Twobob]

Maybe it's the proposed flag for independence

[Ted Hughes]

Holy trifle!

[Chinners]

Thats some mighty fine bollox

[Mikhail Chigorin]

Still can't believe that any self respecting football kit designer would come up with such a comical monstrosity of a creation, let alone anyone be daft enough to even consider wearing it.

It's got to be a joke unless Alex Salmonella had a hand in it somewhere along the line.

[budfox]

They'll be a laughing stock in future world cups and euros. Oh hang on...

[hateutd]

WTF is that????????

[Saul Goodman]

That's awful. Liverpool's are still worse though

They’re a team but also lonely
The strip was launched on Wednesday to a fanfare of jangly guitars and a maudlin rendition of Lloyd, I’m Ready To Be Heartbroken by Camera Obscura.

As well as a pink and yellow hooped shirt and socks, Scottish players will also be issued with an anorak, a pair of thick-rimmed glasses held together with Sellotape, and a dream journal.

An SFA spokesman said: “From The Pastels to BMX Bandits to Belle & Sebastian, Scotland has long been a global leader in wistful disappointment, thanks to our natural abundance of sexless, pasty-faced introverts.

“This kit stands for being obsessed with a girl who doesn’t know you exist, walking through the rain feeling melancholy but strangely uplifted, and writing excruciating love poetry well into your twenties.

“It’s just what you’d expect from the nation that gave the world Teenage Fanclub, Dogs Die In Hot Cars, and Pat Nevin.”

The shirt, available in all sizes from S to XXXS, is made from high-tech microfibres that absorb, reflect and magnify the wearer’s crippling self-doubt.

It should ideally be viewed in Kelvingrove Park in the early autumn sunshine, but kit manufacturer Adidas has reassured fans that it can also be enjoyed through the viewfinder of a Super 8 camera.

Self-declared ‘bowlie kid’ Wayne Hayes said: “It’s not knitted, which is ridiculous. Frankly I preferred their early stuff.”

Jeez. And I thought ours in the US were bad. Ouch.

That was really funny Ross. And very true!

But it's really a tribute to Lord Rosebery isn't it?

Yeah we really love our Lords up here.

"Scotland has long been a global leader in wistful disappointment, thanks to our natural abundance of sexless, pasty-faced introverts"

The really struck a jangly chord with me.
