What an embarrassing thing to have all over the front of the jersey

£65 to advertise that Garbage . No thank you

That didn't take long.

Poor pricing from the club. In this age of the cost of living going up -£65 for a polyester shirt is insane. I shudder what those reds of varying denominations are suckered into paying.  Nobody giving a shit about the fans makes my teeth grind. I love my club and love wearing the colours but it makes me angry they’re taking the piss out of fans.

Well it's better than some fucking gambling advert like every other fucking team so there's that eh? The gambling firms that are leeching on the poor working class man that's so often at the front of your thoughts.

It actually says "Search. Drive. Smile". No wonder Wilma ignored the last instruction.

Edit: to be fair I may have done him an injustice and that's what the emoji is for.

You think £65 is bad? It is showing as an eye-watering €77 on my screen.

Not having a pop, but just wondering if this is some sort of parody account?

Anyhow, the kit is fine, the sponsor is paying us and the transfer season isn’t over. I’m a grumpy bugger at time, but I’m struggling to find any negatives from this kit launch or the closed season so far.

I don't like it. The leaked versions are so much better.

It's fussy with that V stuff and the fussy words from  Cazoo too; their logo was so much better before.

I'm 30 years old and the days of me wearing football shirts are a long time ago... But I can't help but miss the days where a full photograph of the shirt was released rather than a dark, moody video with very little scope of what the shirt actually looks like.

It’s taking the piss out of fan loyalty. I know nobody forces people to buy it but nobody forces the club to flog a £5 piece of nylon for £65 either.

The shirt is not bad. It's too expensive for what it is. The slogan under the sponsor's name is total wank. Do fuck off! I don't care how much you are paying for the privilege.

People moaning about £65, hasn’t it been this sort of price for years?

No.

£65 and £110 for the "pro" is downright theft.

And why does the Castore logo look like a pair of arse-wing tattoos?

No socks for kids kits on sale yet.

The plain photo on the shop page looks better to be fair.

£50 for a shirt, £28 for shorts for a 7 year old. Fuck me.
