I like it, but not sure I can afford to part with £50. Blimey.

Personally, I hate it. /the blue is too light, there's too much white, we look like Huddersfield Town and personally, I think the club are taking the michael a tad.

The badge is in the wrong place, the sleeves look rubbish, I don't mind collars but that looks poor too on this kit. Bit disappointed if this is the template for this season's kit.

Might change my mind when I see it for real, but that's more hope than anything else.

Other clubs are now charging £50 for their standard shirts, I fear it may be the sign of things to come. Replica shirts in Europe are already often e70 or e80. Hope they know what they are doing, because it is a good bit of business for football clubs, be foolish to blow it by overcharging across the board.

I don't like it because of the shade of blue. It is to light and garish. Last Seasons darker blue, is the blue of the 70's.

Design is OK but we are not F**King coventry

Indeed. When we was in Sweden (and I know that generally its an expensive country anyway) but one of NSC finest bought a Gothenburg shirt and it worked out at £60!

I suspect the 'normal' shirt will be around the £40 mark. I have decided to be sensible and not buy this shirt, instead I am going to put the money I would have spent on the shirt into my savings. The sacrifices we make to save for a morgage deposit, eh!?

In Cyprus recently, they were priced between e70 - e80 for league and international shirts. In Prague a couple of weeks back the exchange rate made the shirts around £60 - £70, that was for local teams, as well as your usual Man U, Barca, Celtic etc.

I'm not one for buying replica shirts, but that is easily the best design we've had for YEARS.

EDIT: With the proviso that there are stripes on the back as well and not the plain(ish) panel.

£40 is too much as it is but £50 is taking the piss. The box is taking the piss even more. As if the box could justify the price.

This. Possibly since the 1970s.

Mind you, by the time all the rest of the guff has gone on the shirt, it's going to look just as mad as most.

I disagree, I actually think last years shirt was our best. Personal opinion though.
