Feyenoord unveil half-and-half hoodies ahead of Manchester United clash in Europa League
HALF AND HALF SCARVES are the most divisive and hated item of merchandise in football – but Dutch side Feyenoord have gone one further with a half-and-half HOODIE.
Fresh from the frenzy when fans at the Manchester derby were seen buying United and City branded memorabilia last weekend, the Old Trafford club have been involved in another clothing nightmare.

In a clear bid to extract cash from United fans’ pockets, commercial bosses at Feyenoord have stuck the two club crests next to each other on a red sweatshirt along with the stadium name “De Kuip, Rotterdam” emblazoned underneath.

Just as you thought it could not get any worse, Feyenoord have created a horrible commemorative “Group A” scarf with all four teams – themselves, United, Fenerbahce and Ukrainian side Zorya Luhansk.
And obviously, they have not forgotten the obligatory half and half classic. Shocking.
