Colours
Last year at the All Star game, a comment about how easy the Loan Wolves are to spot because of the bright orange tops led to "nobody else wears that colour". Which was followed by responses and suggestions from various people about who else wears orange...
Wolverhampton Wanderers FC (actually Old Gold)
The Dutch national football team
The energizer bunny
Lifeboatmen
The Denver Broncos
Air-Sea Rescue helicopter pilots
The Euskaltel Euskaldi cycle team
Railway engineering workers
Orangemen
Buddhist monks
Guantanamo Bay detainees
Anyway, we have new shirts now. We've kept the black and orange colours, of course, but now we have the team logo on the front and our personal nicknames and squad numbers on the back.
They arrived in time for a tournament yesterday, and we had a little presentation ceremony where they were handed out. Then we had our first match in the spiffing new shirts - which we won. We actually came ninth out of twelve in the end, which wasn't bad going against teams who were often two divisions higher than us.
