A major retailer of the new England shirts has revealed the company has set a new unpopular record in kit sales amid fury caused by the altering of the St George's cross.
Kit maker Nike faced outrage from supporters after revealing England's next strip - that will be worn at the upcoming European Championship - had seen the traditional emblem changed to a multi-coloured design.
Gareth Southgate somewhat sided with complaining fans over the change and JD Sports CEO Regis Schultz commented on a new record that hasn't been seen before.
He explained that the Three Lions strip has seen more away shirts sold than home tops, but did admit that sales have only been trading for a short amount of time.
Nike revealed the new kit earlier in the month and the usual trend for JD see's home strip sales usually outweigh purchases of its away counterpart - in this case a dark blue attire.
