Arsenal have launched a third shirt, dark blue with yellow seams, which can be seen at AFCi and be bought through the usual channels for the usual silly money.

Arsenal have used Thierry Henry to model the kit (probably because they wanted the player in the picture to be more expensive than the shirt) and he ends up looking like a slimmer and fitter Carl Leaburn. Or someone else from Wimbledon.

Whether Arsenal have any real use for a third kit is debatable, as the recent home match against Charlton highlighted their need for a third colour combination! And we won't, hopefully, play Racing Lens or Galatasaray again in a long while...

In fact, fans might suspect that the launching of a third set of Arsenal colours, to be bought by fans for up to fifty quid, suggests that the new kit is the Manure in disguise...
