We need a third kit because we get very little opportunity to create revenue as we don’t own our ground.
I get it, but it’s basically fleecing fans isn’t it? We’ve had third kits before and I’ve always thought “what’s the point?” except as a money earner. Us two, Mansfield, Newport, Wolves etc don’t need a third kit.

It's not fleecing fans it's giving them an option to purchase 3.2.1.0 shirts if they like and making money for the club. We also have retro kits available.

I like them and have already got both of em

They look cheap and tacky as fuck with those patterns.
If the away strip didn't have the pink on it then it wouldn't be as bad.

Got a casual or training top vibe to it.

No-where near as bad as two or three years ago when all L1 sides seemed to be having their own competition around who could come up with the worst shirt.

we had a spate of deliberately making our goalie kits as vile as possible for a few seasons, this one being the daddy of them all:

Not that many people buy GK kits anyway, but I don't think ours will be rushing off the shelves!

I saw them this morning and thought it was April Fools! Crazy selection, nevermind!

Our keeper shirts aren't being released until July as Umbro need more time to source enough material to make one that will fit Tomas Holy.

No they sent them back. The kit that got delivered to do promo shoots wasn’t a representation of the designs that got signed off earlier this year. Not even close apparently.

They are being remade, hence the delay.

It’s a play on one of their ones they used to have in the 80s or 90s I believe. That said it’s the kind of kit that will probably have some of their fans demanding they terminate the contract with Puma.

That Barnsley one is horrific, didn't the USA have that pattern in 94?

Oddly the kit the Barnsley kit is a reboot off when we played against it our home kit was deemed a clash so had to hammer them in their own kit!

No wonder Like Thomas left Barnsley for us.

That has to be the worse ever kit I’ve seen in this division

Yes and was quite popular apparently.

But times change and with a fancy sponsor looks odd.
