      Good choice on using the colour red (for obvious reasons) and the "Football is my religion, Liverpool is my shrine" line is perfectly fine.

      I'm not an artistic or designy type of guy so pardon me if my idea is sh*te but rather than using the map of England with the union jack plastered on it I would have kept the text as it is and went with a White Liverbird with the flames for Heysel and Hillsborough on either side of the Liverbird.

      If not then I'd go with a black and red picture (you know like the kind you see on shirts with Che Guevara's face on them) of Kenny or Stevie celebrating on the front of the shirt with "Football is my religion" written in black above the picture and "Liverpool is my shrine" written in black below it.

      It'd probably look sh*te in actuality but it looked cool in my head. Either way good try mate and if I ever saw that shirt in Birmingham or Johannesburg (which due to work are the cities I split my time in) I'd definitely pick it up.

      I like it, but there may be questions over the inclusion of the Union flag. That said, for me back in the annals of history, Liverpool defined the real meaning of the Union jack but equally proud of the role of the Irish in Liverpool's great history something we cannot forget! The kop is the one place where the Irish and British flag could fly in unison and peace together, exempt from all politics and religion - very much and very proudly the anti Old Firm. Players across these islands coming together to offer the real vision of British football. Wales, Scotland, England and Ireland - united and idealised in one city!

      It's a fair attempt, but for me it is all wrong.

      The formatting of the text is wrong.

      FOOTBALL     IS        MY
      RELIGION

      LIVERPOOL
      IS          MY      SHRINE

      For me,

      FOOTBALL IS MY
      RELIGION

      LIVERPOOL
      IS MY SHRINE

      looks better, but each to their own.

      The phrase "IS MY SHRINE" does not sound right to me either, I may be wrong but "are my Shrine" flows better to me, but if there are any grammar nazis out there please correct me.

      As for the Union Flag, and the map of the UK, don't get me started.

      The colour is fine.

      I agree with the are/is issue - both sound weird depending on how you say it. My solution would be to change Liverpool to Anfield. Also don't really like Union Jack on the UK. Liverbird would work better.
      Finally, (sorry I sound really critical - I do actually like it as it is and would wear it) the shade of red doesn't quite look right.

      Replace the union flag England with the Liverbird for a start mate. Liverpool is a world wide cherished club.

      Nice try mate, would replace the Union Jack with the Liver Bird, just below the ON in Religion. Maybe a few fans would be tempted to consider the shirt perhaps if the colour was more reddish like the LFC kit. Although everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

      Would dump the Union Flag and replace it with a world globe  :)

      Wouldn't use the UK flag or imagine. Liverbird seems like a good choice.

      Liverbird instead of British Isles and union flag and you'll have a winner!

      It's fine for me (apart from the union jack bollocks obvs). The shrine things fine for me because it replaces 'place of worship' so in my noggin it works.

      In true reality the only special "gift" to LFC fans would be a trophy of some sort, idealy the Premiership in the not too distant future.
