I'd rather have a home kit like ours, than an away kit like...ours. Which remains absolutely hideous.

i must say that the picture of the shirt that ian morris is holding up makes it look even cheaper and nastier than i had first feared!!

this is surely just a mock up, the team cant possibly be wearing something with the crest just printed onto it, we must have at least some embroidery?? that looks like its cost about £3 to make!

Haha! I did look at that picture and think it reminded me of poor imitation merchandise... similar to the tat that used to be hawked outside grounds in the old days!
Shame there isn't a white stripe between the blue and yellow ones too.
Let's hope it is a mock-up.

I agree that the badge should definitely be embroidered on to the shirt, but I'm sure the club will have been able to have their say on that, and probably decided to save a few quid.

i find it incredible there is still no mention of it on the club shop website. at least a decent picture would be nice, and god forbid there should be a way to pre-order it. but if you want some red goalkeeper shorts (that look pink) you're in luck.

What makes me laugh is the club don't even have enough kits to play PSF's in - let alone release on general sale. They are having to use the away kit!

How many years have we talked about the same issues for?

yeah, if i remember correctly, dont we usually use alternative kits in PSFs ?? I'm sure a couple of years ago prior to the current yellow strip's release, we played most PSFs in the light blue strip. i guess the club want to "release" the new kit on the opening day of the season, but it would be nice to at least have a decent picture and details somewhere.

and you're right Rich, and we'll be talking about it again next year with the new away kit, the year after with the new home kit again, and so on..................
