Ken Hairy 3,773 Posted April 25, 2021 I'm just praying they don't decide to wear that shirt next week. Imagine all the title winning photos etc and we're wearing that monstrosity? Although I suppose it could be worse, we could be wearing our binner kit 🤷♂️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aggy 755 Posted April 25, 2021 5 hours ago, kick it off said: This one is on Ebay at the moment but it's up for £80 and I can't justify that for it. If it was closer to £50 I'd grab it. Think I’ve got one in kids sizes knocking around. That and the black away kit from around the same time with the glow in the dark yellow and (sort of) green bits down the side were two of my first shirts. Think I had most of the Colman’s kits, keepers home and away - still some of the best! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KeiranShikari 1,422 Posted April 25, 2021 Yeah, without the words it would become a 3/10 and not a 1/10. It's kind of awful. but maybe it looks better in person. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have said they will wear it against Reading. There is a media boycott next week, so initial, certainly official, photos will be limited. I wonder if the media boycott has helped ease the negotiations with sponsors to not be on the shirts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed, apologies I type the name incorrectly, I did mean Social Media and am aware of the difference. however I still think there will be limited images, as the club uses a lot of social media to promote itself.

The galleries will just be on the Pinkun and official site instead of Twitter etc. Won't make an iota of difference to the coverage unless you exclusively use social media to keep up with things.

I never said they wouldnt exist. just the official pics would be limited initially, whilst the boycott is on. Pinkun / Archant, AP, BBC reporters will of course be posting their own images on their sites, not club ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The shirt carries our usual yellow and green colours with a montage of fan images in a sublimated tonal green print, v-neck collar detail and high-definition badge. It will be proudly worn by the first team for a single fixture, our last home match of the 2020-21 season against Reading at Carrow Road on Saturday, May 1.

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,822 Posted April 25, 2021 3 hours ago, chicken said: £30. And some of the money is going to charity. So utterly awful that the adult shirts appear to be sold out. I like it. A bit gutted I wasn't quick enough to get one. Even the GK shirt is now only available in a couple of sizes. Not like some folks on this forum to be out of touch with reality or something is it? Whinging for the sake of whinging. I'll just email the club and make sure their replica shirt design process includes those of you who are in with the lot in Milan and Paris and know your fashion. Not going to lie, I made the post before reading the full article and I was being a little bit unfair. My initial thought was that it was just an excuse to squeeze a few more quid out of the fans whilst using the charity bit to drive extra sales, and whilst I don't think I'm too far from the mark, I don't begrudge the club from trying to make extra income at this time and anything that benefits charities is a bonus. As for the second half of your post however, I didn't say anything about the design... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,250 Posted April 25, 2021 Tbh I like it better than the current home kit, which I didn't buy. I have no problem with the idea and of course it will be up to individuals if they buy or not. I guess next season's kit will look nothing like this otherwise it might put some off another purchase? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGunnShow 5,940 Posted April 25, 2021 I'm still hoping against hope that the fan-designed rainbow one with the stripes on part of the shoulder/chest with the rest in white gets made as an away kit for next season.

Greavsy 2,415 Posted April 25, 2021 Been catching up my socials tonight, and I've seen Rob Butler, TNC*, Connor Southwall have been gifted the new shirt. There may be others (Chris Goreham perhaps) that I haven't seen. Nothing against these people personally, but why if they are giving shirts away give them to people who have experienced some hardship this year, I'm sure there are plenty. Or donate some signed ones to a local cause to raffle. These shirts sold on in less than a day, without any advance warning so they hardly needed anyone to advertise them. Whilst I accept a few £30 shirts is small against EPL finances, remember this is club who furloughed their staff as they couldn't afford to pay them! * TNC are nominated for fan(s) of the season too, they are getting their feet nicely under the Carrow Road table.

I though it was the big c, not that is matters, it's still a good effort and respect for that. My point is about the club giving new release shirts away, when not many months ago they were skint, and couldn't pay their staff..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
