Barca target the girlies

This is the new Barcelona away shirt that they have been seen wearing allot recently. The shirt is abit different to what they usually wear and is sure to please the female football fans. The pinky colour goes well with there attractive and full flowing football. Im not sure though if i like it, i think it looks abit plain and im sure you will find this shirt in your local sports shop at the end of the season heavily discounted to clear all stock!! in fact ive not seen anybody wearing one at all. You always see people in Barca shirts wherever you go, usually the home shirt, but i really cannot see this one selling big. Im sure Henry loves it though!!!

The All New Cameroon Shirt

Heres the new Cameroon away shirt that will be worn during next years African Nations Tournament. I quite like this shirt, its abit different to what they usually go for and is more like a club shirt. With it being a puma one, make sure you go to the gym before buying one as there quite tight and show off all you contours!!! If your going to buy one, might aswell get one with a player on the back as with most African Nation shirts, even if you spend hours online looking for deals, you will never really find a heavily discounted shirt and usually have to pay aroud £40. I prefer this to the green home shirt and like where they have the badge on this shirt, i think it looks good on the right side, with their other logo on the left. The numbers on the front always look good also

Whilst playing sunday league football about a month ago, i managed to hurt myself as usuall. This time however, it was not the usuall groin strain or muscle aches or knocks that you seem to struggle to shake off more the older you get, it was and injury i firmly believe to be caused by my rubbish football boots. With me not playing as much as i used to i tend not to spend as much on my boots these days and usually settle for a decent value pair that are on offer at the end of the season. Therefore im currently wearing the boots pictured above (not at moment as my foot is knackered). The boots are made by Adidas and this particular pair are called the F50. They do look silly but are actually quite comfy. Anyway, the injury occured whilst going for a 50/50 challenge, i lost out by the narrowest margin and ended up kicking the other players studs!! I have no doubt that this would have hurt what ever pair of boots i wore but my foot went purple and stayed that way for 2 weeks!!! I ve prob fractured my foot or something!!! Looking aroud for some better boots i have found that most boots on the market now are made of the same plastic material and offer little resistance to a stud. Looks like im gonna have to save up for an old pair of Puma Kings.

Famous Marseille Shirt

 This is the famous Marseille shirt from the early nineties worn by the team as they dominated the French League for 4 seasons aswell as winning the European Cup by beating Ac Milan in Munich in 1993.  The shirt is a classic and well known design that Marseille wore for 4 seasons until they changed to the Reebok kit for the 94-95 season.  They abviously realised their mistake and reverted back to adidas. The shirt is just as well know for the sponsor; Panasonic, as it is for the famous players that wore it and the famous white and turqoise blue colours that make up the shirt are instantly recognisable with Olympique de Marseille. This was the first shirt also to have the famous badge where the teams initials are clear. Marseille seem to change their badge every 5 years for some reason. Here is the team that lifted the European Cup against Milan, as you can see there are some very famous names and footballing legands.

The first Predator

Adidas Predator Rapier Cup were the originall Adidas Predator boot that has evolved into a range of probbably the most worn and best selling boots in the world, both in the professionall game and amateur. The boot was actually the creation of an ex footballer and not adidas. It was the colourfull Australian; Craig Johnston that invented the boot. Johnston played for Middlesboro and Liverpool in the 70’s and 80′ and had always been obsessed with the design and style of different boots since his time as an apprentice at Middlesboro. Once in retirement, Johnson designed various different prototypes themed around the idea of sticking rubber patches or teeth to the front of the boots to add protection and grip when striking a football. This also aided in putting curl or swerve on the ball, later mastered and made famous by David Beckham in the famous boots. The boots have now evolved into a more lightweight model but at the time this technology was expensive and soughtafter for every budding footballer.
