You serious? The English champs jersey is terrible, if only because the print has nothing to do with England.

Lol, you just annoyed a whole bunch of Scots and Welsh! If they did separate champs' jerseys for England, Scotland and Wales the jerseys would probably ALL be way better than the British one though.

I agree with Pisti, Movistar and Leopard/Radioshack 2012 are making some of the absolute worst national champs jerseys known to man.

Some of my recent favourites:

Hey, it's pretty cool that Holland and Luxembourg have the same flag, let's use it as well!

Agreed. (although its British Champ, not English);)

Its time there was a re-think as the jersey really has no British identity whatsoever. Although historically, our track and field athletes etc have worn the same jersey (no idea why).

When I mentioned it many people said that it has a strong history in British sports etc. That might be true, but they should improve it somehow. Maybe not make the lines horizontal. At least the Aussie jersey doesn't look like a different country's flag... (or maybe Brazil?! still...).

EDIT: This is one of the best I think. They did a terrible job of it afterwards at Leopard/RSNT...
