Yes strange.

Obviously something to do with the word recognise. Still crap video.

I dont have sound on (in the office!!!) but it looks to me like a clip of a WBA player getting sent off and then a picture of players in the new strip? Is there something in the audio that links a player getting sent off to the new strip?

It says something like you will be able to recognise. Whereas the ref who sent McAuley off didn't recognised the correct player who committed the red card offence. I doubt these Brummies will get it either.

Looks as if they are having a dig at the ref because he didn't recognise the player who committed the foul..! Worst video I've ever seen

Yea I understand that part but just seems like they've said to themselves "right what is the quickest and cheapest way of making a promo video without putting in any real effort"...boom, this video was born.

It was probably a smart idea on paper or in the meeting. But it's not came off very well at all.

Well in your original post you said you didn't get it but obviously you did.

Yea at the start I didn't get it until a poster explained what it could mean, then i said I understood that part (thanks to the posters help) but then made the point it seems a lazy attempt. Probably should've made that more clear

Brilliant comments on the youtube link,

"This felt like someone had taped over the wedding video with MOTD highlights..."

It's that bad it's went viral.

I almost gave a newly wed couple their wedding video back with their memorable day replaced with Coronation Street.

That is absolutely horrendous! They need to speak to our marketing team!

I guess that means its done its job in getting them some publicity.

Its a poor video though, and Im not sure I quite understand what the whole 'regonise' thing has to do with a new kit?

They obviously knew what they were doing then.

We should employ their marketing team for next year. Wonder if they could do something with a clip from the 2012 Scottish Cup Final. Answers on a postcard.
