Van wink 2,994 Posted August 3, 2015 Not really that keen it would seem.Norwich City homePiet Mondrian is down to his last two tins of paint, violent yellow and undistinguished green. He''s very tired. He can''t make the rectangles match up pleasingly. Symmetry cannot be achieved. And there''s a huge, square patch with an insurance company''s name still to be plastered on the middle. The stuff of nightmares.VERDICT: OffensiveNorwich City awayNowhere near as upsetting as its home game sibling, but note the colours. Norwich''s home shirt is yellow and green in more or less equal part. This here, the "alternate" strip, well... That looks an awful lot like green and yellow to us. Unacceptable. VERDICT: WHY?Picture: NORWICH CITY!BONUS INCLUSION!Norwich City thirdIf we did every team''s third shirt we''d be here for an even longer period of questionably-spent time, but would you just look at this horror show? What the... What? And it''s yellow and green. Which, as we''ve established, really isn''t going to be that useful. Let''s just hope a sudden influx of new Premier League commercial opportunities doesn''t force Norwich into fixtures against Jamaica, Australia or the Green Bay Packers.VERDICT: Punishable by iImmediate relegationPicture: NORWICH CITY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 3,632 Posted August 3, 2015 Interesting, but only because my review of the Telegraph consists of: why does anyone read this pile of crap? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0 Posted August 3, 2015 It does really make you wonder who sanctions these shirts.The general concencous from both the fans and media, is that the kits look awful. Except maybe the away shirt. It''s surely easier to make a eye pleasing shirt, then to get it as bad as this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It does Lincoln, there were loads of people wearing the home and away shirts on Saturday, mainly kids from what I saw, so presumably they like it. Either that or perhaps they just want to be associated with their local PL team, who can blame them for that, great news.But looking at the kit without the associated emotion, it is pretty SH1T in my humble opinion.But hey, why risk stating an honest opinion and run the risk of a generic accusation of negativity.

The ghost of Michael Theoklitos 0 Posted August 3, 2015 For what it''s worth - and I keep posting this on here for the sake of anyone who will listen - I think the 3rd kit is an absolute cracker, straight into the ''so bad it''s really good'' basket.I''m going to get one very soon.

It's Character Forming 1,160 Posted August 4, 2015 Compared to our kit there are some real disasters out there... I''m a lot happier with ours having had a scan of some of the others. The 3rd kit is starting to grow on me... I''m beginning to think it will be the modern equivalent of the bird poo kit.The article is mildly amusing but essentially rates all the kits on "how much do they look like Roy of the Rovers style kits as we think they used to look like in the 50s ?".It''s simply that you need new designs every year based around yellow and green...

The Walking Man 13 Posted August 4, 2015 Our kits are really beginning to grow on me to be honest. I''m all for making a unique kit that actually is worthwhile changing kits for. With regards to the Telegraph piece, quite how the author favours West Ham''s kit as ''the winner'' I''m not really sure why. If I was a West Ham fan I''d just wear the kit from any one of the last 20 season and nobody would notice the difference!Love or loathe our kits, there''s a reason why they''re selling! People want something different and unique. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
