[Albion] New shirt: yay or nay?

[Bry Nylon]

I just don’t think Nike ‘get’ football and what’s more have no desire to.

The shirt is okay but that’s just about it. Imagine how beautiful Adidas, Puma, Umbro or Kappa could have made it. Nike really don’t give a shit and it shows.

Why do the stripes not continue behind the Amex logo? It just looks like it’s been stuck on top

And why don't they go all the way down the back? Don't tell me that's an American Express stipulation as well. No doubt it's so that, once again, you have to have a name and number printed to stop it looking naff.

The 'Thank You NHS' shirt is drop dead gorgeous for all sorts of reasons. And the new season mediocre new shirt? Meaningless. Tho give us £52 - let's spell that out for the hard of thinking anyways - FIFTY TWO F*CKING QUID! If you buy that really shitty shirt at this really shitty time then, sorry, but you're really a bit of a moron no? Why would you DO that?

I think it’s a Premier League stipulation.

I think it’s a Premier League stipulation.

If it is then Newcastle never seem to take any notice of it.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

The new shirt would be perfectly acceptable if we were Peterborough, Southend, Ipswich or P*rtsm**th.

But we're Brighton and Hove Albion and we deserve better.

 

[Pint of Ale and a Burger]

I have to admit,now I've had time to process the shock of the new shirt without stripes,I have seen a few more pics and seen it on the club website and I have to say I'm starting to really love this shirt.i was yay but now I'm yay,yay and thrice yay.

If anyone plays PES20 and wants as close to the kit as I can get to patch on to the game here you go;



If you know what this is then you'll know what to do.

(Yes, I know the side stripe is half the size but current template isn't possible)

 

[Arthritic Toe]

No! Just like 40 years ago, there is a perception that stripes are for lower leagues. Newcastle are strong enough to resist it - pity we aren't.

Apologies of this has already been covered elsewhere in these 14 pages but...

Is anybody else worried that the only other time we were relegated from the top flight we weren’t stripy?

Just me?

I am not superstitious in any walk of life aside from football. Then it’s lucky mugs, shirts, pants etc all day long. I worry that we’ve tempted fate and that fate will accordingly give us a good kicking.

Adidas IFK Göteborg shirt is pretty nice.

And it was in our fourth season as well.

Cynically so unlike the stripes to try and force more sales.

Looks too similar to Pompey. Poor effort. Rather stick with my Skint stripes.

 

[Motogull]

Pay.

 

[GloryDays]

The weather lady on ITV repping the new kit.




As you can imagine, this isn’t supposed to be sideways but for some reason the uploader rotated it for me.

Whatever you say about our new shirt, we’ve worn in 4 straight games soon to be six no?

When was the last time that happened?

swap sponsor and badge and that's about as good as it gets these days.

Despite not liking it very much, it's been rather refreshing to see us wearing our first choice kit in two consecutive away matches.
