Well seeing as it's almost 100 days until the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, it seems appropiate that merchandise might be released around this time. But most police around northern Scotland (Where I live) are fearing of one paticular shirt. The ABE shirt (AKA Anyone but England shirt). Being made by a company called Slanj police are warning them about them being racist. The stores have also appeared in stores around Edinburgh and Glasgow but I haven't heard anything from them yet

I dont think racist is the right word but I dont see any police getting involved if that were to happen here. They have real crimes to go stop.

^ To be honest, this could cause real crimes.



I can understand it from a humourous point of view but at the same time, alot of people could get offended by this and do some harm.
