What in the mother of fuck was Luca thinking when he did that design?

Those Lazio kits by Macron look brilliant. It'd be great if Macron could produce something equally as brilliant for us.

They look bloody daft. They look like a banner advert rather than a football top.

I'm starting to like these Macron folk. They're different without being naff. Maybe a bit daft, but not naff, like the new Man United disaster-kit.

It's a bit fascist (not that some Lazio fans would have a problem with that) but I do like the idea. Very retro.



I actually kind of like that.

Sorry, mate, I'm a Lazio fan since I was born and I can assure to you that those beautiful kits are historical and have nothing to do with fascism.

Lazio were founded in 1900, when fascism still didn't exist and adopted the colours of Greece and, as crest, the eagle as it is the symbol of the old Roman Empire.

Yeah that's fair enough, Archie. The eagle does look a bit 'Luftwaffe' though :P

That's actually a little bit ace. Totally different. Reminds me a bit of that yellow number we wore at Liverpool in a cup game once with the big Villa badge on it.

I liked that kit, I still have my top somewhere (unless the misses has chucked it out!)

Fair enough Archie. You do have to admit it has a certain resemblance to a Luftwaffe emblem as Stu says though.

Only a coincidence, mate, no doubt about this.
Anyhow the new Lazio kit should be the following (and it'd be nice, sober and stylish).

A lot of the Nazi icongraphy was borrowed from the Roman empire, amongst others.
Because it looks powerful and... ace.

FC Lorient go for a more conservative Macron design.  Any kit is brilliant if it has the word 'biscuits' on it in my opinion.
