listen (formerly MG7) 0 Posted April 5, 2004 I''ve heard that the current away kit will be replaced at the end of the season, though the home kit still has a season to run.Anybody know what colour / style the new away kit will be? Will it still have the Lotus sponsor?OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bryan Gunn 0 Posted April 6, 2004 Yeah I heard that too. Don''t understand the point though, why does the home kit run for 2 seasons and the away only for 1? I really like the current away shirt, much nicer than some of our other efforts in recent years! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XXL16 0 Posted April 6, 2004 I guess for a white dark blue or black new away kit, comments? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karl Pilkington 0 Posted April 6, 2004 I believe one of the pink un staff (peter raven i think) have said before that delia has been seen wearing an away shirt which has the proton badge on instead of lotus. Apparently whatever the change, it is only minor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tufnell Park Canary 0 Posted April 6, 2004 I like our current away kit and I''ll be wearing it for quite a while yet. Besides, I can''t afford to cough up for a another shirt, particularly if the difference is only minor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pete Raven 276 Posted April 6, 2004 It''s so that there is at least one new strip each year - both kits change every 2 years, only now one kit is a year behind the other in the cycle. If that makes sense...As for Delia''s Proton away top at Wigan that was probably more to do with the Malaysian big wigs than any early preview of next season''s away strip. Maybe we should ask her at the NCISA forum?One change will be the words ''Division One Champions'' on the shirt! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NMTD 0 Posted April 6, 2004 The minor change we all want will be taking the Nationwide badge off the arm and replacing it with a Premier League one!I think Pete said he saw Delia in a home shirt with a Lotus badge on it - rather than an away shirt with a Proton badge - but whatever - we''ll find out soon enough.

Mook 0 Posted April 6, 2004 Hooray for the joys of retro - I''ve been wearing my Asics top for a few years, and will continue to do so!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NMTD 0 Posted April 6, 2004 Mook - so does it still fit? Mine certainly doesn''t!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
listen (formerly MG7) 0 Posted April 6, 2004 I sold my Asics top to some guy who was collecting all the shirts, what a mistake that was. I''d still wear mine now given the chance!Only ''retro'' one I have now is that awful navy blue / fluorescent green / yellow away shirt from about ''98.And it''s far, far too big. As was the style back in the day.I think a cool white kit is called for next season. Round neck, no collar. I''d definitely buy that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,218 Posted April 6, 2004 its still going to be sponsered by lotus,people have been complaining about the shade of green thou. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Temp the Revelator 0 Posted April 6, 2004 What? are they mad? It is, without a shadow of a doubt, the best away kit we have ever had. As we have to change though, I would be in favour of black, with yellow and green detail - very eye catching, especially with the lotus logo on it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Jonathan Zizmor 0 Posted April 6, 2004 As nice as it is, the colour is definitely a problem - a bit like the infamous Man Ure grey shirt. I think the team should wear yellow as often as is practical.Anyway, the quicker the turnover, the more ''collectable'' I suppose the away shirts are. Saw a bloke at Palace in the green Pony shirt, I wish I had one of those. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
susie b 0 Posted April 6, 2004 I''m with you, Rochdale Yella. The tartan was class, and went particularly well with jeans. Although I like white on other people, being fair-skinned, it drains the life out of me so I suppose I''ll be happy with anything bright and colourful...minus the Nationwide League badge, of course. (As long as it''s not The Coca Cola Championship badge instead!!!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mook 0 Posted April 6, 2004 NMTD - the first one I had (in ''89) certainly wouldn''t fit now- as I was 13! But that was the white away one and was even cooler than the yellow one I have now. But perhaps I bought MG7''s shirt, cos I got it from ebay a couple of years ago. It rules! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
