Nice shirt. Definatley getting that. Although soem of you may have heard some interesting news this week that addidas have taken over Reebok so perhaps we will be wearing adidad nmext year.


Does anybody read anything around here?

Reebok will stay the same even though Adidas bought it. It's just that Reebok's profit will be going to Adidas.

They will keep the reebok name to sell in the states where reebok is bigger.

Reebok make loads nicer kits than Adidas so fingers crossed everything will stay as it is, plus Reebok is British and Adidas is German, need I say anymore :p

I read something recently saying reebok was a US company, I know they have the little union jack on the classics, so I was a bit suprised.

If Reebok is a US company then Adidas is a French company

Nice kit, I will be buying it.

kewell_7 there a simple way of not being ripped off, dont buy them, nobody is forcing you to. It could be worse you could be a man utd customer.

Liverpool have a decent attitude when it comes to money i.e. donations and cheap tickets.

Reebok was a British company started by a couple from Bolton (i'm not an expert) it was on the news the other day.
Like A.B has said it will make no difference they will still be trading under the name Reebok otherwise what have adidas bought ? Its the brand name that is known worldwide, they are hardly going to start making Reebok classic trainers with the same style but an adidas logo are they  :D

I've got two problems with that shirt. Firstly, as some people have already said the badge is like a sticker and looks plastic rather than embroided. The other problem is that we should have the blue UEFA badge of destinction on the sleeves. We are one of only 3 clubs entitled to wear the badge so where is it? I would rather have this than the 5 tiny stars above the club badge.
