Wouldn't you want to be invisible if you had to wear that? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Angelic Cynic 1,046 Report post Posted October 15 6 hours ago, Clogiron said: The sad thing is they wore this abomination when they won the Divisional Premiership at Old Trafford, probably their most prestigious victory in history, a bit like wearing a Clown's suit for your wedding! To gain success while wearing that shirt demonstrates the pride of the players who wore the shirt at that time - knowing it was aimed at a very young audience and when they attracted young fans to the sport. No other clubs who have had their shirts shown were successful. I would be quite pleased if the players wearing the Salford shirt shown in the OP lifted silverware this year - and Keighley Cougars,wearing their 2020 kit in 2021, also lift silverware. Sartorial elegance, on and off-field,is hardly a matter of importance, in the UK, in 2020. Quote No reserves,but resilience,persistence and determination are omnipotent.
