There was a Journal posted quite a few years ago that Goal Keepers wearing bright coloured Jerseys performed better (let in less goals) than those wearing dark colours.

The one thing they don’t ever need to fuck about with on the shirts is the badge design.

The mistake they're making is that they're scaling it to the same size as the proper badge.

But our proper badge is a circle within a circle with the swords inside the inner circle so they're obviously smaller.

That's why your eye is immediately drawn to it and it looks so wrong.

They’ve created a solution to a problem that they’ve created. Just change the colour of our badge to gold, if they want.

Just looks like they’ve stuck Sadam Husseins swords from Baghdad on the shirt

Is it much different to this (colour of numbers aside)?
It doesn't matter. You're not getting the point. It was awful then and it's awful now. Just give us the fucking stripes front and back. Leave the plain red backs to the teams that play in plain red shirts.
 
Hate any shirt with gold trim, you want gold, win something. The collar is typically rubbish and the plain back looks rubbish but at least has a bit of trim to break it up. Should use the proper shaped blades for the badge rather than that big lumpy thing and make it a tad smaller.

Goalkeeper shirt is fine apart from being a bit like an old Wednesday one. Third shirt is still easily the best of a bad bunch though.
 
These are lovely 😍 If the option to buy without sponsor is available, will get both!

I have never wanted a goalie shirt more…

Very nice kit, the swords as an alternative to the club badge in the past 2 years has been a great addition and credit to Errea for that.
Is it just Errea though, or has there been a rule change that i'm unaware of?

Last couple of seasons we've had LOTS of teams have retro badges applied to their Away or 3rd strips, whilst leaving their home shirt with the normal badge. The pigs 3rd shirt will feature their classic badge this season.

These are all shirts from last season, either it's 1 big coincidence, or there was a rule change allowing the use of 2 different crests in the same season:

I think Adidas started the trend a few years ago on third shirts for Champions League clubs, IIRC Puma made their CL kits with the teams name spelt out which looked horrendous so it's definitely not unique to us or Errea.

I love our crest, I think it was ahead of it's time too as a lot of clubs now seem to be angling for a circular badge with a simplistic design in the middle.

My point is/was we have it every few years. Was questioning why the reaction is off the scale this time round, as opposed to “I see they’ve done the plain back thing again”.

Apparently it's just a Trend/Craze:
