All well and good, but I do hope they will have black shorts and white socks to match. To me, these are Sheffield United colours.

 

[oaklandrdblade]

The general consensus amongst our admittedly small group that kit C BUT with D's arms would have been better.

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

It's a crappy slopy shoulder design. And when did we sign sumbdy called Player?

 

[Kopped]

It's been designed as a commemorative kit to the 70/71 strip. So hopefully there will be Black shorts and white socks as suggested

 

[JohnDenver]

Kit C. Well, well, well... Who'd have thought it?

 

[BornOnShorehamStreet]

They might as well have given us Kit C and three blue and white striped options for all the value that fans vote was, You can have long sleeves on your shirt providing that shirt doesn't win. Simply a marketing ploy to reduce costs by not having a short and long sleeved option. Kit D was the same - no long sleeve option - Pah!!

Have they actually said there will be long sleeve option?
Just because the images don't show it, doesn't mean there won't be an option.

I thought I'd heard itall, but now we're complaining about not having long sleeves on next seasons shirts, before they've even been put into production.

Presumably by someone who's never seen that strip, which has striped sleeves for a start...

Anyway, now that the voters have spoken, can BIFF ask the club to put a "none of the above - keep this season's strip for another year" option when next year's vote comes around please? We were told we couldn't have that option this year but presumably there's no problem with asking for it to be an option next year.

Just clicked on the link and had to laugh at this.

Orders need to be placed now to ensure that fans can purchase the new shirt in summer 2011.

That's right kids, orders need to be placed NOW.

 

[Bladesway]

All I read was

New kit...Marketing blah, blah blah. Footballing Heroes (FFS whose heroes are these), fans voted in their thousands (really?), blah blah. Iconic crest (see same badge), Marketing Manager says its brill, blah blah.

Give me the days when you got your new kit released once every couple of seasons. You got what you were given and there was nothing more than "Heres the new kit, its red and white", buy it or don't buy it. Oh and some Photoshop warrior didn't do a mock up of PSV's shirt saying "This ones great, why aren't we going with my super design".

I'll be checking the quality before i order anything. I've not had a replica shirt since the Premiership, i'm sticking with the training gear until the shirt is of decent quality!

 

[Gibbo89]

Well I think if I was ordering it I would want to print out that pic. Then when the shirt arrived with the sponsors name on the obligatory thick white iron-on strip, I could show them the pic and say "no this is the shirt I ordered, you can have this crap one back".

Just popped up on HR Media's Twitter (don't really know how I ended up following them to be honest) http://www.hrmedia.org.uk/news/20xx/nov/get-your-new-kit-on - including a namecheck for the forum.

 

[Paddys Cough]

BORING! People pipe on about tradition but wheres that got us, time for a change, I wanted the "southamptonesque" one!

Here's something I mocked up using a current Nike Template.

Now THAT's a commemorative kit.

 

[super_pig]

that's cool legend.. i'll have one .. it's a bit like the chengdu shirt?.. hint

 

[Grecian2000]

BORING! People pipe on about tradition but wheres that got us,

Well when we did away with the stripes in 1978, it got us from Div2 to Div4 in the three seasons we persisted with it.

 

[super_pig]

and when we reinstated it we went back up the table.. same thing happened to the pigs with their blue and white arsenal job in the early 70's AFAIR

 

[super-dazzler]

The shirt's about as retro as an Ipod, love the Nike one that's been mocked up above.

We need striped arms in my opinion.....and totally agree on white socks, we've looked the biz in 'em. (shame it don't make us play better)

 

[Bladesway]

See, wait long enough and along they come. Anyone got the GCB ringtone?

I don't think the designer of this shirt can ever have seen the 1970-1 shirt then!

 

[super_pig]

>I don't think the designer of this shirt can ever have seen the 1970-1 shirt then!
umm .. i'm confused.. that is definitely the 68-73 shirt (complete with round collar).. and i 'was' there .. interesting link for you
