Love it but it does kinda look like an iron on sponsor patch to me...
From behind it looks like they're wearing a blue bolero shrug
If you can find more than a dozen NSCers who have the faintest idea what a bolero shrug is, then I'll buy you a pint.
Looks like an over the top patch again, perhaps a more subtle one though?
I'm not so sure there is one. Been trying to get a decent look in the video... Anyone know for sure?
Not a solid colour on the sleeves.
For a moment, I thought I'd accidentally logged on to Vogue magazine online.

Would have loved retro all blue just to have a break from the stripes, but I suppose it's about time the top flight saw some vertical blue and white stripes and we must be the first up there to wear it in seventeen years?....Sheffield Wed?
Did Wigan wear stripes?
Indeed they did! Doh.
And West Brom.
Interesting that it is dividing opinion so much.
Personally - on balance - I'm not a fan. For me it is 80% perfect and 20% disappointing.
I love the main body of the front of the shirt.
I can live with the back - incorporating legible numbers on stripes is always a challenge.
But the sleeves? Over-designed beyond belief. Just keep it SIMPLE and it would have looked so much cleaner and classier.
I've never bought a shirt and said, "you know what - have you got something similar but with sleeves in a completely different colour? That'll do me!"
Like Crystal Palace? And then they just ignored the fan anyway (yes I meant fan).
