I honestly don't know what to think about that but it's not something good. These are some of the worst shirts in a long while.

How did we manage to obscure the sponsor logo without someone getting lawyers involved?

I’ve not been online but someone texted it to me.

I think it looks horrendous but the funny thing is that virtually everything seems to get leaked these days. That’s the sponsor, the home shirt and now this in the last couple of weeks or do.

Something a bit suss about it.

Firstly the obscuring of a sponsor logo isn’t something any club would do to even the most disinterested organisation.

Secondly, it’s very unusual for a club to just leave unlaunched shirts hanging up in a club shop for all to see.

The home is okay, nothing more. Pretty poor and uninspiring after last years.

That away kit is AWFUL.

How we can go from last years three to these in our first year back in the Prem is beyond me. We mustn’t want kids to support us :lol: :lol:

It all rests on the third kit then. Can it save us?

P.S. someone who’d seen it had told me that the away was awful but I didn’t believe them. Owe them an apology!

Pretty good effort actually to have to have that ugly sponsor on the shirt and yet come up with something which makes it not even the ugliest part of the shirt.

The stripe. I'm talking about the stripe.

It has a claret trim with a black stripe running downwards, behind the crest.
As described in Newt Seasons kit thread

Look at the shirts Umbro have put out for other clubs. They're class. Carlisle, Wimbledon. Even Boston United!

Only one '8' in the sponsor should please some folk.
Need to see it for real myself.

Reminds me of a mixture of the limited edition Wembley shirt and the yellow Adidas shirt worn under Waddle.

Have they tried a homage to the 96/97 away shirt? The one with the Adidas stripes down the side?

Clearly slightly folded over, sponsor not obscured at all.

I think when we see it fully it will go down as an iconic kit. Reserve judgment until a better picture.

I can’t get over how good all 3 of last seasons kits were……..followed by THIS! 🤣

It’s like the fashion police from 1987 have been re-employed! 😂

I've always wondered how the designs are chosen. Pace? Kompany? Retail manager?

Anyone know?

Think it’s just the way the shirt is hung and folded. I’d also presume they’ve got the shirt ready after closure tonight in preparation for sale tomorrow.

I actually weirdly like it.
I was saying I wanted us to try the yellow/gold and black stripes as an away kit again. It's close.

I was told that the former retail manager designs the shirt together with Umbro then meets with manager and other staff for approval.

My favourite kit is the 97/98 away shirt. I really like that shirt if it is the actual one

Only a Blackburn fan could have chosen this to be our away kit. It is downright shocking. What is going on? If it didn’t have the strip it would have been great, why ruin something? It makes no sense from a business point of view as who in their right mind is going to buy this?
Just why? Why oh why?

Now that you point it out I can see it. Not that it'd improve it, but the stripe will probably be the same width all the way down.

that’s surely a black verticle stripe? The fold makes it look like a point at the bottom but I don’t think there is.
Might be wrong.

If you think this one’s bad, imagine the version with a great stinking Dude Perfect across the chest :D
