"Hmm do I need another pair of boots?"


As Imelda Marcos was heard to say: "You can't have too many rugby boots".

Is the Daily Beast considered to be more reliable than the National Enquirer?

I am certainly not a regular reader of either. It is however the first link that pops up when you Google "ironed white laces"

Blue and Orange???

I can hear North Hampshire District Hospital's Hypertension consultant's pager going off from here......................................before being transferred to a nice private hospital for nice people of course.


Harrrrr and indeed umphhhhhhh... for good measure.

Just to add to the misery of Mr Thomas... http://www.prodirectrugby.com//prod...po7_pM3AhnFCADPWv6DpKQ7Af_4Tng6BoCdkkQAvD_BwE

It's more fluorescent blue and orange :p (seriously though - it's 22 pounds and they're fantastic boots. Buy some!)

I'd rather have kit I'm comfortable in and can perform in than kit that fits the traditional styles ;)

Blue and orange boots - Nicolai Poliakoff ?

That sums up my approach to refereeing quite nicely...

To be fair they were brought in a quick need when playing in my last varsity match last April and my old Black Canterbury's were dead. Subsequently found that I liked them and they facilitated faster running and thus they have become my refereeing boots.
