Premier League Replacing ‘Black Lives Matter’ Badges For 2020-21 Season

The Premier League said on Thursday that players and match officials will wear a "No Room For Racism" badge on their shirts for the entirety of the 2020-21 season, replacing the "Black Lives Matter" logo that previously appeared on kits.

The "Black Lives Matter" logo appeared on kits for all the games following the COVID-19 break last season and the league said it will support players who 'take a knee' at matches to highlight racial injustice.

Pulisic Given Historic Honor As Chelsea’s New No. 10, Joining Elite Company

On Wednesday it was reported that Christian Pulisic will have the honor of donning the No. 10 jersey for Chelsea next season. Pulisic will trade in his No. 22 jersey and fill the shirt of Willian, who joined Arsenal earlier this summer. Ironically enough, Willian wore the No. 22 for six seasons until he was honored with the iconic number in his final season.

Check Out The Most Brash, Beautiful, Bland And Brazen Third Kits For Next Season

One thing I always look forward to with a new season is the revamped kits, especially the third kits. The home and away jerseys are always the same colors as last season’s with a new design. This is not the case for the almighty third kit. 

Ranking The Top 10 Worst 2020-21 Premier League Kits

I can’t be the only one who believes that the new Premier League kits for the upcoming season were a majority of flops. Perhaps I need to give them more time to grow on me.

Nike Just Released Some Mighty Fine Jerseys For Its Stable Of European Powers

In a strictly sporting sense, the worst part of the pandemic was definitely the postponement of Euro 2020. On the one hand it deprived us of a month-long carnival of joy (the expanded 2016 tourney was thrilling with Wales and Iceland getting out of pocket and Portugal claiming top prize despite winning only one match in regular time), and on the other it reminded us of how dumb it is to host a major international tournament in 12 different countries (Did you ask for this? I didn’t ask for this).

But the countdown is once again on with Euro 2020 Part Deux just 283 days away!

Chile’s 2021 Copa América Jersey Is An Instant Classic

With the 2021 Copa América approaching (it's September?), we can finally start to dream about the return of international play with its accompanying displays of passion, history and fantasy. 

Few sides stir the imagination like two-time Copa winner Chile, with stalwarts like Alexis Sánchez, Arturo Vidal, Gary Medel and Eduardo Vargas encapsulating an approach that can kill you in all manner of ways — just ask Messi. 

FC Köln Happily Parts Ways With Mosque-Hating Fan

FC Köln scored a huge social media victory after calling out a supporter that terminated their membership with the club in response to a mosque being featured on next season’s kits. The Islamophobic moron really thought they did something with a letter to FC Köln announcing their departure and reasoning. Little did they know that their message would be put on blast on social media.

Red Star FC Kits Boast Stunning Details, Perfect Execution

I’d like to turn you on to a couple things: (1) Red Star FC (not to be confused with Red Star Belgrade) — a 123-year-old club (France’s second-oldest) in Paris that currently plays in the third division and essentially stands in direct opposition to everything PSG. Red Star is unapologetically anti-corporate, rooted in social activism and deeply connected with the working class.

Most Absurd Reasons Jersey Numbers Have Been Retired

We all know the ancient tradition of clubs retiring jersey numbers to honor the player who wore it. Most of the time a retired jersey number means the player was a club legend who served for many years, or maybe that player passed away too soon or some other extenuating circumstance. 

Of course there are always exceptions to that rule, and in the exceptions lie the weirdest reasons for retired soccer numbers.
