June 15, 2017. The day Southampton Football Club took unveiling new football kits to completely new territory.
Except they didn't actually unveil a new kit at all. They just teased us all with this incredibly long-winded animated video, only to turn it into some soap opera-style whodunnit right at the very end.
Without giving too much of its plot away, it begins with Ryan Bertrand (in animated form) and we see cameos from several Saints players and club legend Matt Le Tissier. At the end, we're hit with the bombshell that someone has 'stolen' the new kit designs and that this is 'to be continued.'
Oh, just do your self a favour and watch it?

Never before has the launch of Southampton's new kit meant quite so much to quite so many people. We eagerly await the next episode.
