    That religion is always a bit fussy over imagery.

    ive not read the story mate but youve gotta ask when did islam decide that a "football shirts red devil"is against their religion..i thought particular religions were centuries old islam being one of them

    i cant see manchester utds shirt being mentioned anywhere in the Koran

    the context of this red devil represents a fotball team ..nothing else but a football team

    Ye know what should be banned? All religions. Nothing creates more heartache, pain and suffering than religion. Don't get me wrong, alot of good comes out of it, but you shouldn't have to attach yourself to religion to be a good person and good to others.

    they also modified barca logo if I remember correctly, for the cross in the shield

    They are banning these shirts because the devil is a symbol of another religion?

    Man, get a life. I bet the large majority of Malaysians don't even care about this, and they are either laughing, furious or they simply don't care.

    You'll still see Manchester United shirts in Malaysia.
