Gloves in August

[Tom Bott]

This business about the gloves that Leon wore, maybe they are to stop the opposition grabbing his hand/arm and slowing /turning him.

The England rugby team started wearing 'Teflon' skin tight shirts for that reason. Like sports bra's we may have to get used to it.

Maybe he has no hands and they're filled will sand and just stitched onto his base layer.

Don't need an excuse to post a picture like this proving that he does possess hands:

Clearly photo shopped. You can see the join. I’m in the no hands camp until disproven.

BREAKING NEWS: The FA are looking into docking points and fining Sheffield United after it was revealed striker Leon Clarke has been photographed in August wearing gloves, an FA spokesman reavealed "this is a very serious allegation and if proven true, could mean West Ham are awarded the premiership title. Chief spokesman Trevor "what's a forward pass" Brooking later reiterated if proven, the Blades and all teams in the premiership could be docked 97 points and a fine of £26 million pounds (given to West Ham united as compensation for their huge fan base) the investigation is ongoing.

Can only think it was a superstitious thing for Leon....perhaps he scored more last season gloved than ungloved?

Unacceptable for a footballer ...... unless attatched to a piece of elastic stitched in to his shirt sleeves.

They're Photoshopped, definitely Photoshopped.

He can wear a fucking scarf if it makes him play better, and I'm all for a woolly hat if he starts scoring goals!!

It'll be a fucking burka next.

I saw one of these in a sports shop last week, might buy my wife one for her birthday and see how long the whack in the bollocks takes:

There's some inconsiderate fuckers on here. You forget Leon's getting on a bit and his circulation isn't what it was. He wears gloves in August for the same reason I wear socks in bed.

He wears gloves in August because your wife finds them sexy...?

Sshh, don't let everyone in on us old 'uns tricks of the trade!

I used to play with a bloke who was a bit of a local hardman and a well known drug dealer, he had chopped his fingertip off in a "work accident" that apparently was in an engineering works when he was still a YTS but I suspected it might have been done otherwise. He used to wear 1 glove to play in all year as that finger was susceptible to cold. An opposing forward took the piss out of him one day when it was warm and he absolutely battered him after the game finished.

The conclusion on Leon therefore is that he's may be a dealer and he may batter you for taking the piss, be careful.

Anyone questioning gloves in August has obviously never attended an August game at Boundary Park or Ice Station Zebra as it better known!

Because he's a 1980's Tory MP!

Ah yes. That’s the Nike Muslim women’s range, bearing the logo, “just don’t do it”.

There was something on him out in Portugal. All players had short sleeves and he had a training coat on.

Sure they said it was something to do with sweat or sumat, to keep him lean..

Leon's choice, not the club making him.

Bolton poster:

"We were dreadful but Leon Clarke wearing gloves in August should dock them points."

 

[Cerberus Blade]

Maybe he’s got Raynaud’s phenomenon?

 

[Tom Bott]

He was certainly a phenomenon in the first half of last season.

 

[super_pig]

he can wear gloves on his fucking head if he wants.. if messi started doing it they’d all be doing it

 

[Th!stledo]

Just a cool guy who doesn't like to be cold.

My personal speculation to him covering up in all weathers is he has vitiligo, aka. Michael Jackson Syndrome.

It causes unsightly blotches on your skin, and if you're a little darker like him they look far worse. So it's either that or bleach himself, which is of course painful and far more expensive than a pair of gloves and an athletic shirt.
