Oh, i see. Thats fucking bollocks. We dont go to watch the FA do we? David Beckham doesn't have over 100 caps for the FA. New order weren't singing for the FA. John barnes isn't an FA man. What a completely stupid and ludicrous decision made by an organisation that has fucked up this game for far too long

I've designed my own. I think you'll all agree that it is better.

I think one is going to be used by the FA, the other by the national side.

And Bens badge is awesome. Italy may be kicking Sicily, but we're kicking a pint of ale. ROAR

...and you are what compared to them?

If that wasn't sarcasm, i doubt it was, i'd call you a retard. They have changed if from saying The FA, TO England.

Nope, changing it throughout. Will be used for the Slovak game this month for the first time.

Up until 1977 England cricket teams on tour in other countries used to play as the MCC side, and they didnt stop playing in MCC colours abroad until 1997.

And thank fuck, because who would want to represent that bunch of pricks instead of England!

Extensive research was conducted by The FA with different groups before the design changes were undertaken in-house. The aim was to establish what ‘The FA’ and ‘England’ represent in people’s lives, and to gain a greater insight into the sense of national identity the ‘Three Lions’ can deliver.

Fuck me. Is that quango-speak or what?

So which one of those two up there is the new one?

The lighter blue one. I wonder how many hundreds of thousands it cost to up the contrast a bit.

The one on the right will be on shirts.

The website at the end of that link says that the Tudor roses have been made to look more realistic as well?!
