They're saying Macron promised bespoke kits after the generic kits they were getting from Adidas There's only so much you can do with stripes Quote
mkowlthesexynewversion Posted June 3, 2023 Posted June 3, 2023 Not a fan of the sponsor logo really, but then I am not going to be wearing it. As should no one over the age of 25 really 1 Quote
1banana2banana Posted June 3, 2023 Posted June 3, 2023 We don’t half have some naff sponsors. Mr Tom sounded like a *****, chuppa chupps was a mess and this is almost as bad. Quote

TheExile Posted June 3, 2023 Posted June 3, 2023 Was expecting 90s white socks with that new shirt. As pointed out a nod to the 93/94 shirt. That was my first ever kit as a young lad. Quote

Their home kit for next season is very similar in design to ours from a few year back, and this has the white back like ours did with the stripes at the bottom. Good spot. Ours would have looked better with striped sleeves (in my view at least). It was a proper League 1 shirt. The one we just got promoted in was a lovely shirt though 2 Quote

Chupa Chups could only use it on their immediate branding during that time. Both Barca and Real Madrid wanted it on their shirts but also demanded exclusivity. The owner of Chupa Chups didn't want to alienate either of the clubs so sourced a club out of Spain. We were chosen because of our individual name and the fact we wore blue and white stripes, the colours of Dali's favourite team. We were also still in the Premier League when the deal was signed. Chupa Chups tried to cancel the deal on our relegation but it was water tight. They've not sponsored a football team since but a section of Espanyol fans started wearing our shirts in reference to Dali 3 2 Quote
lyn_owl Posted June 3, 2023 Posted June 3, 2023 That photo is deceiving, the stripe within the blue stripe is yellow. 1 Quote
owl4ever1867 Posted June 3, 2023 Posted June 3, 2023 Looking forward to seeing the away one as well. Fantastic that the club have unveiled this early instead of August time. 1 Quote

I still standby the fact that it looked a mess plastered in the middle of the shirt. How many people wear them now the current retro shirt trend is in? I didn’t see one chuppa chups shirt at Wembley.
