And they arn't happy. The English national team has had the flag in the collar on their football strips changed to the LBGT colours provoking outrage.

Would any American teams change their flag to more inclusive colours?

*LGBT

Also those arent LGBT colours.

Although, LGBT claimed the rainbow.

That's all the colours.

So the england flag was already LGBT colours.

Because the colour spectrum is gay.

So... nothings changed?

The letters are important, its their ranking in real life and in p**nography.

This will offend the gammon even though it's got ties back to the 1966 training kits. Don't really care though as not fully English and got more important things in life to worry about.

And nah most of the American 'patriotic' crowd and probably Dave are too indoctrinated out the womb by having to swear allegience to a literal flag most mornings to let something like this slide without taking up arms in protest 😂

I've found it very amusing to see the flag shaggers up in arms about something that's absolutely pointless, as is tradition.

American teams usually have Pride nights where they wear rainbow versions of their logos and uniforms, often times only for warmups. They usually sell those items at auctions later to raise money for some cause. But even as benign as that is, Christians and other conservatives still have problems with it, such that the NHL caved in to the pressure and no longer does it. I can’t imagine the outrage if some team changed the colors of the American flag to rainbow colors. They’d probably get death threats from all the Pro-Life flag worshippers.

Nothing even to do with LGBT, but, it's funny seeing the gammon flag f**kers crying about it.
Just like they cry about everything that doesn't actually involve them.

I've seen the American flag in Saints' (football team) colors.

Based on the article it's tied to the 1966 team. But my question is, how? I don't know the history or context but do find the outrage a bit amusing.

Apparently nike came out to claim this but no one is buying it @walterluigi

@WalterLuigi, the original 1966 England world cup training kits had these colours on them hence the new kit having subtle references to it.

Knowing how the BBC likes to stir, they probably asked random people until they found that one person who could give them cause for writing a piece on this non-event.
