That badge still looks wrong. The checks are horrible too. Just leave the bloody thing as Claret body, blue sleeves and no cheap gimmicks.


Agreed. That shirt is grotesque.


I've told you a billion times to stop exaggerating.

If that's the kit, and we really don't know that it is so it's a bit early for the hand wringing, then it will do. Not perfect from my perspective but grumpy middle aged blokes aren't the ones who are going to buy it in their thousands so it has to appeal to those that will.

It looks a tight fitting number, so I ask myself if those who find it grotesque may themselves be on the Bella Emberg side of cuddly?

Exactly right.

I still don't bloody like it though. Moan, Moan, whinge, grumble, back when I was a lad etc.

It's alright. Could be worse. It's claret and blue and the team play in so it's fine by me.

I think it's nice, it'll look better than that anyway, have you seen the new Dutch shirt? That has small checks down the side and it looks class.

Really looking forward to the black shirt too, I loved the one with NTL on the front a few years ago and the one in the first Nike season we had but never wore was class too.

We've had a new home kit every season since the 97/98 season. Even Man United aren't that bad.


Don't buy it then...

We're all forgetting something... if that's what our boys will be dawning next season, the chequered bits, etc. are nowhere near as bad as the 'TATA' logo????? As far as sponsors go, i'd be embarrassed to have that shit on our kit!

He's perfectly entitled to moan about it if he doesn't like it.

He's got a very good point though. We have changed our kit every season since then, and it's all well and good saying "Don't buy it". But what about people with kids who want the new kit every year?

The shirts are overpriced enough as it is, without having to fork out every 12 months for a new one.

Fair argument...

Can people not say 'no' to their kids anymore?
People should try it now & then - social standards may improve slightly.

Tata would be possibly the worst sponsor in the world. Surely a nose come up with this mock-up...

Tata are that shit indian car company that were responsible for the city rover! Sack of shit! Might as well get the GeeWiz to be our sponsor.

The poster said it would be a forex trading company, anyway, which sounds equally as strange.
