Mandy Rice-Davies springs to mind here for some reason!

Lions reveal shirt for Australia tour

Quote
The British and Irish Lions have unveiled their shirt for the 2025 tour of Australia, revealing they will wear a darker shade of red.

The shirt also features a pattern woven into the fabric, symbolising the union of four nations, and an old-fashioned 'grandad' collar.

Lions chief executive Ben Calveley said the change in colour was intended to create a shirt that was "more wearable for the fans" away from matches.

"More wearable"? Bleeding execu-speak nonsense. Are they saying that you can't wear bright red away from the stands? I do all the time.

I wish they'd just tell the truth and say "It's more commercial" or "the sponsor's logo shows up better on dark red".

I do like the pattern on it though, not sure I get the point of putting an electronic tag in it though.

Maybe the electronic tag is in case a certain Scottish full back currently playing in France is selected?
