It's alright. It's a claret body with blue arms.

I have a feeling some of our more cuddly brethren are concerned about how those chequers will look stretched over their love handles, but they have to do something to the shirt to justify getting you to fork out another £50.

We've had much, much worse.

You need to lobby the club to bring back the stripes mate. :)

A few points

- it's a shirt, as someone said, it isn't the budget or the election or something. I'm more bothered in who will be wearing it next season.

- I'm not going to buy it, but then again, I never do, so my disappointment levels are constrained accordingly.

- Don't really care about the sponsor, so long as they pony up the cash, and there's lots of it. As for them looking like "walking adverts" (oops, was that on the GM thread?) - that is kind of the point.

- My opinion of the design is that it is really pretty horrible. Those big check bits are horrid.

1981 retro shirt for me. Served me well for years now. Claret, blue, end of.


Agree with your points Paulie. Although I will reserve judgement on it until I see it in the flesh.

It would seem our beloved national team have also found new shirt sponsers:

Dunno what's happened, but whenever I click onto this page it asks me to log on/register for spice services or something.

I like it, as it is claret and blue. The only other time i can remember anything up the sides was the arrows on the Red32/DWS home and away shirts.

If it was too plain claret and blue a lot of people would have moaned its not changed much, so well done Nike for giving a different style.

As for the message with the 4 pictures of the setting up of stage in them...i am very envious of the bastard showing of the new retro track top in the second ad....can see me shelling out on that at some point also !

Yes they do. But their sponsor is placed stupidly high up the shirt.
