On the subject of gaudy new kits, Girondins de Bordeaux have partially unveiled their third strip for next season.

We’d love to tell you that it’s a demure little number in that classic French style, but it’s actually a garish neon pink, purple and blue number that is made up of a collage of images of famous Bordeaux landmarks.

The town hall is in there, as well as the Grand Theatre and the “water mirror” outside the Place de la Bourse.

According to the club’s official blurb: “Three strong symbols are represented: pride, youth, identity.” D’accord.

See if you can spot any of those strong symbols in this leaked image, as procured by Todo Sobre Camisetas

We like it, if only because it sort of reminds us of those ‘Fat Willy’s Surf Shack’ t-shirts everybody used to have.

    Why so many football clubs attempt, in a way such as the one above or another, to remind the world wherefrom they are these days, isn’t the inclusion of the name of the town in the name of the club not enough?

    Call me kooky but I love this one
