Looks decent but still not sure i'll bother with the £35 for a shirt even though I like this and the home one.

Quality kits, home and away. Only thing that lets them down a bit is our badge! Its too big, and they cant seem to embroider it.

On sale from the Crewe game onwards. Looking forward to seeing it "in the flesh"!

i think the badge looks amazing a big bigger (kind of like some of the older england shirts) and seems to be put on quite well. a lot better than those crappy lotto kits.

Really, really like it. Didn't realise EA Sports would feature so prominently again though, assumed Samsung were now our 'main' sponsors.

What are the sizes like? I'm an XL, but i bought that blue one in xl couple of years back and it's barely a medium, it looks fucking great on me though ;)

I think you'll find a medium is a medium. An XL is an XL.

Unfortunately, you are an XXXL.

(Any more help I can give you, just ask).

Just buy a bigger one. For some reason the kits seem a bit tight otherwise.

And yes, the kit is lovely. Someone tried to buy it off me already.

Can't imagine you as a big lad Sutton, I don't know why, perhaps I've always thought you've expressed 'thin mans' opinions in the past... (whatever the fuck that means, apologies but I'm a fair few beers into my evening...been out in (Royal) Wootton Bassett don't you know)  :D

Yeah you certainly need to work out the "thin mans opinion" I have no idea what that means. Me and Mex stood together on the terrace normally invokes panic that the sun has died.

It goes on sale just in time for my holiday to Cyprus, tidy.

I don't agree with the Club's policy of only being able to buy it now, if you've already gone and bought the Home shirt.

Surely it would make sense to put it on general sale now and sell as many as possible? seeing as a lot of fans would be wanting to buy it for the holiday season.


Title: Re: New Away Shirt
Post by: Ralphy on Sunday, July 24, 2011, 09:44:20
They release shirts at different times so they sell more.

Most people would only buy one if both went on sale at the same time.

Some people are not happy. I remember when we didn't get the home shirts in until October as they 'were stuck in customs' when we had the DGI (Dodgy Goods Interbational) shirts in the Diamandis years.

and when they turned up they were they were the wrong material, that really heavy sh1t that, if wet - ie rained - felt like wearing lead weights.

Its literally only a couple of week wait, and the only people who have had access to them are those that registered for the "biggest photo ever". They may have flown some in for launch purposes, with the mass order taking the cheaper slow boat from China. Either way I'm going to wear mine to the Ciren game, coupled with the fact I didn't partake in said photo, soley in the hope it annoys you :)

Potato sacks. The players had theirs replaced with proper material after King rightly complained.

It was a wet game at Wycombe that brought it to a head? Kingy said they weighed a tonne by the end of the game.

I was going to buy the new shirt today, but bought an Adidas polo shirt instead. Cant beat an emboidered badge instead of one that looks like a ricecake sticker that you could lick off. Still a good shirt though.

I think it's a great modern version and not as cluttered as the old bade (which i do agree was brilliant) I'd still prefer to see the train green though as it should be
