JD Sports advertising the new Rangers shirt at £115 😯😯😯 After seeing that i had a look and JD sports do seem to be selling it at £115, but the same shirt is also on sale at £70 at JD sports, they also sell the Celtic one at £70, wonder what the £115 anomaly's all about. The new Ireland shirt is similar in that they have 2 home shirts on sale, 1 is a replica and 1 is called a pro jersey which I take is the same as what the team will wear although it is priced a lot lower than what is being charged for the sevco one at roughly £67 and £87, both are manufactured by a company called Castore, whether that has anything to do with it.

Castore are a major sportswear company ( see England cricket kit ) This is a disgrace and designed purely to extort as much money as possible from a fan base. So a “replica” kit is no longer replica in some cases and you have to pay either for a copy or a replica. There has to come a time when fans just refuse to buy them surely.

Or wait til you go on your Mediterranean holiday and buy the cheap version for 20 euros from a shop on one of the strips.

Luton's new home kit looks very familiar! Even down to the sponsor, that's just an orange version of our navy away kit a couple of years ago

Our lass isn't a massive football fan but she came home from Town on Friday wondering why JD Sports in Kingsgate have a display of another local championship teams shirts across the entrance.
Anybody feeling clumsy, when holding some drink that would stain, and out and about near there ? 😈

Not that they’d (Celtic) ever need a third kit far less an away one given they have unique Hoops but here is their season 2023/24 version... It’s “inspired by the bright vibrant lights of our city’s famous music scene, standing out over the sound inspired design - The shirt brings to life that passionate Glasgow culture” For what it’s worth I don’t think I’d like to be propping up the bar on a very rough ferry with two Hoops supporting buddies wearing the new kit - The folks swaying everywhere with that kit in a force nine gale would definitely mean being 🤮 !!! What’s yer thoughts on this one then Porroh ! Attachment Deleted

The black one is nice but it's spoilt by having a dark green stripe down the side seams on the shirt.

This was always one of my favourite kits of the 70’s. I definitely like this one.

While lurking on another site I came across this away strip for 2023/24 for Dunfermline Athletic (I recognise their badge) and it looks like Radio transmission waves... I’m thinking it would be totally ideal for Emely A.F.C. (assuming they probably will play near that most famous of transmitters of course) ! 😊 Attachment Deleted

It certainly wouldn’t look out of place at a theatre horror movie for sure ! I think plenty teams will have plenty horror movie days v City next season so maybe apt - but give me the simple but clear name and numbering on The HTAFC strips any day of the week !

Have a Google at Blackpool 2nd and 3rd kits🙈 Their white one certainly sticks to their colours - kinda unusual for a change kit but it could just as easily do for a jockey in The Grand National ! The black one looks like a hail shower of meteorites falling from a dark sky and certainly lots of this season’s new kits have taken on new dimensions some good and some bad with a hugely varying degree of opinions out there... For what it’s worth - I think Town have done really well this season and it’s gonna be a purchase of four out of four for me this time around (one more than last year) !

I agree Westie, I like all this year's kits and may be tempted to get 1 of the 3 if there are any left when they flog em off half price later on in the season!!. The Town kit that is not the Blackpool 1!!.

I thought there was a font they had to stick to? If there isnt there should be. Looks like the menu in a Chinese to me. Number 10 please, Grealish fried rice. The lightening on the shirt implies heavy rain is on its way, which represents Manchester at night, or any other time of day, better than Man Utd's dark green humbug effort anyway!

I know sponsorship's used as a tax write-off (our firm sponsor's a local Bradford Youth team) but that is eye-watering.

There is one standard font for all Premier League matches (in the same way that there is a different font that has to be used by us for all EFL matches) but each club can have their own font for matches in the FA Cup & League Cup (and possibly Champions' League matches too). The Premier League change their name/number font every 8-10 years and it will be a new one this season, but it's still very legible.

Talking of legibility of shirt numbers, I didn’t think Town’s numbers were clear enough on Saturday (they were a fairly pale gold colour). Would be better in black or red.
