Euro 2012 excitement starting to kick in?

Umbro launches the St George Collection

How are you feeling about the Euros? The endless big tournament disappointments have left the England fans of the office a little jaded in recent months, but we appear to be turning the corner.

And Umbro has released this pic of Darren Bent, Wayne Rooney, Joe Hart, Kyle Walker and Danny Welbeck in formation of the St George’s flag to celebrate St George’s Day and the launch of the new St George Collection. It's got the office buzzing somewhat.

The St George Collection is a complete on and off field range which will be used by the England squad at this summer’s big ones. The red and white of the St George’s flag is fundamental to this patriotic collection as is the striping detail inspired by the Umbro jacket worn by England manager Sir Alf Ramsey and which features on the current home kit.

The collection includes bags, washbags, new boots and the Neo 2 ball, all tailored by Umbro, and available from May 4th from www.umbro.com
