Photos of the most legitimate looking piece of fabric made by little hands in South Asia that most would call an away kit for this season hitting the Timernet. The pictures seem to confirm the rumors that the away kit this season will be a homage to the Miracle at Love Street in 1986, confirming that both Nike and Celtic are either out of original ideas or have us figured out and realize that old heads will buy the same kit twice in order to relive the “good ole days” or the younger generation want to feel like they were apart of those magical days. Either way, it’s not a bad looking kit. The 1888 watermark is similar to the one that is found on the home kit that has been released this year, so this picture is probably legitimate.
It seems like Celtic’s away kits are more controversial to the fan-base than the transfer season purchases are. “For fucks sake, we didn’t replace Lee Naylor?” “Aye, but did you see that honking yellow away kit we’ve got this year? Fucking terrible!” It seems like recently, the away kits have become the biggest topic of the off-season every year, with two camps always forming. There is the “that’s fucking class” camp, who will shell out their 40 sheets if it was no matter what is put out, even if the top was some abstract design originally made in feces, or worse, a blue top. Then there of course is the “fucking minging” camp who need something to moan about and will dislike the top no matter what it is. “Money grabbing cunts!” will be their cry, even if they deep down like the design of the kit. You know you’re in one of those camps, don’t deny it. Luckily for you, I am here to determine just what you should do with your recent Celtic away tops. They will fit into three categories: Keep it so you can brag 20 years from now that you still have your (insert name here) top, keep it for fives after the season, you’ve got the next People’s Ford kit so get rid of it.
The “Tim-wich City” kit. AHHHHH! MY EYES! IT IS BLINDING ME! Whew, found some sunglasses, much better. Seriously, this shit is awful. While it’s not quite the infamous “people’s Ford” kit, it is really really really bad. Why does it seem like all of football want to by Norwich City? Man Yoo fans are buying up their scarves for some reason and Celtic wanted to mimic their kits in 2008/2009. Horrid. Punt this kit as soon as you can.
