Comparing 1990s Goalkeeper Kits With Birds

A couple of days ago Twitter user Dan Baldassarre (@evornithology) created a very interesting thread about 1990s goalkeeper shirts that will definitely brighten your day. The bird expert compared 1990s goalkeeper shirts with flamboyant bird species.

It is immediately obvious that the comparison is spot-on although goalkeepers tried to distract attackers with the outrageous 1990s goalkeeper shirts, while the feathers of male birds are standing out to attract female birds. Additionally, very striking colours signify a healthy bird. Check out all goalkeeper shirts in comparison with birds underneath.

Sporting CP 120-Year Anniversary Shirt Hit by Crest Peeling Quality Issues

Sporting CP recently celebrated their 120th anniversary with the launch of a special commemorative 26-27 jersey. However, just weeks after its release, several supporters have reported noticeable quality issues regarding the gold heat-applied crest on the shirt. Big thanks to @SuspendamEsta & @AlexRod_27.

Images shared online show the golden lion emblem and shield cracking and peeling away from the fabric after only a month of use, despite fans following strict hand-washing routines. The issue appears to be widespread, with staff at the club's official Loja Verde store reportedly acknowledging multiple complaints and advising customers to avoid machine washing.

Fortunately, Sporting CP's retail staff have been handling the situation proactively by exchanging defective jerseys on the spot and reapplying custom name and number printing at no extra cost. It remains to be seen whether any adjustments will be made to the badge application for remaining or future production runs.
