You did a very smart thing by buying the away shirt and not the home one for the 2006 World Cup. You could probably get away with wearing it down the street without being too noticeable. The 2006 away shirt was a lot more subtle.

If I wear my current one down the street (Which I perceive is a little flashy and bright. A lot more distinctive than the 2006 shirts by the way), everyone will notice and point. The only times I can wear this shirt without getting attention is at home around the house (Something which I've found I really enjoy doing by the way) or at an actual game.

I was thinking about going to a Nagoya Grampus match and waving at Joshua Kennedy from the stands as the only tall, white guy among the cheersquad wearing a bright green and gold shirt among the thousands of orange and red, tiny Asian supporters.

I don't know how many I've got floating around, but there's a fair few. Never bought a socceroos one though, and this current one looks terrible IMO so I won't be inveting in one this time.

Hey cool i thought i was the only one that had a couple of fake jerseys.

Gotta love Vic Market

i think you should feel pride in yourself....you bought your national team jersey. i know its hard in that you havnt bought your swans one or something, but this is what football does, regardless of how much of an AFL fan you are, when the world cup comes around, everyone is a socceroo.

i think this should be sshoved in demetrious face.

I went out and bought the new socceroos shirt that I have been endlessly criticizing for weeks and weeks. #-o

In the ultimate act of loyalty (Or betrayal), I went down to the local Kamo soccer shop and thought it didn't look too bad, so basically I picked it up for a rip-off price of 10800 yen.

This is a big deal for me, because in my twenty five years on this Earth, I have never bought any kit for any code... ever. This includes my beloved Sydney Swans whom I have felt deeply connected to since I was born.

Does this mean I feel more connection and passion for the socceroos and football than my traditional AFL and Sydney Swans? Only time will tell. 8-[ Perhaps it's the anticipation for the World Cup and my love will die when the World Cup is over.

Honestly, I am both disgusted with myself (For my lack of commitment to my criticism of the socceroos shirt) and cautiously excited (At the realization that perhaps that my love for the socceroos is equal to, if not greater than the Sydney Swans). It's shattered my understanding of my identity, that's for sure.

Anyhoo, this is a big deal for me, so apologies for making a thread about nothing.

If anything, take this thread as a sign that Australians are becoming devoted to the game, or the fact that some are warming to the current World Cup shirt.

I just sure as hell hope Australia can win in this shirt, so I can have fond memories of it in the future and perhaps Australians will take it up as a permanent design.
