I thought the tender was full of coal?
Coal and water, hence why a tank engine has a bunker! [Reg]Wrong colour, too, if we're going GWR[End Reg]
Not on the away shirt

Brought two mini kits for the girls. Never understood how the Kids sizes are so close in price to the adults.

Nice kits overall. Wish they went with a tiny bit of red on the away kit similar to the GWR kit it was supposedly based on though.

Are you looking to be in the squad Bernie?
Well, I am open to it.. at least I could play the part of scapegoat to relieve at least one squad player having to deal with it

Thanks, so just straightforward plain white and black shorts then, shame - i like a pair of shorts with something different. I loved the 93/94 shorts, wore them to death at the time.

Not at all. Drum up interest, but manage expectations doing it.
Why should they just for You? Go down that shop now and there has been a queue to get in since 12pm.... They've done just fine it seems

Did they have an inner lining which has now perished?

Because the kits are nice. They sell themselves. I'm hardly the only one baffled by them hinting at a Premier League remake when its fuck all like it.

didn't really explain the white kit. what's woven in that?
to be clear I don't really give a fuck, it's only a shirt, but I'm in an argumentative mood

My point is more that Chalky wants them to do it all a little bit low key as he got his hopes up. It's selling out quickly and the shop is packed at 12pm on a Thursday, the club shouldn't not do these things because a minority of people don't like it, that was more my point.
I understood the marketing to be that the print was the way we were going, not sure Burmah and the Diamond badge was ever on the cards was it
The white kit is surely just a play on the colours?

I can see both points. At no point did the club say they were making an exact replica and you’d have been foolish to think they would. No chance we’d be using sponsors from nearly 30 years ago. Makes no sense. I expected the shirt to have a take on the pattern (as it has done) but would have loved a collar (personal preference) even without a collar it looks ok but not a fan of the black has it isn’t really our colour. If the collar and sleeve trim was white instead of black and red line in middle was green - that would significantly improve it. Having said i order me and the boy one at 12:00. Fallen hopeless back into addiction with this club. Cant wait for them to let me down with a shit season or worse yet a great season with a sour ending. Hate STFC…

Just to add from the hype it got I expected it to resemble the 93-95 kit a bit more than it actually does.

I think you're well aware that was never the expectations, no need to be facetious. Promoting the Premier League kit (red, white, little bit of a green with a collar) to release a v neck black trim kit is fucking stupid and baffled most people who saw the marketing campaign. It doesn't mean people won't buy the kit, its a nice kit. Its just dumb and confusing to make that your marketing strategy when you're setting peoples expectations somewhere totally different.
