New away kit - I kinda like it

Last updated : 09 June 2011 By Paul Lagan

I know, I know, new football kit launches - the scourge of parents up and down the country.

"Mum, dad, can I have the new Chelsea away kit?"

Hot on the heels of the new home kits - £45 odd quid a pop for the shirt alone - do check online - Chelsea have "revealed" their new away kit.

Best decribed as a black with turquoise squares - yeah I know, can you believe it? - It will get it's first outing on the pre-season tour to Asian in July.

Promo pictures of Lampard clenching his fist are hilarious - while Kalou giving the obligatory hard-man stare - looks simply out of place.

This kit is best suited to tennis players and not footballers.
But then I'm not a footballer or tennis player and I kind of like it.

I suspect it's aimed fully at the casual sports market and not to be taken too seriously as a real football kit.

If the marketing bods wish to get in contact - cfcjourno@gmail.com and offer a kit or two as a competition, I'd be grateful.

What do you think of it?
