I'll say it again, if we win 9+ games away wearing this
new kit, all's well in the world of tie-dye LUFC.

Maybe they need to shoot the photos using a different filter but everyone looks like they are jaundiced in all the shots I have seen.

Must admit, I thought the actual PR photos of the kit
(with happy faced Joffy in one) made it feel better to
the eye balls. And if Joffy's happy wearing it who am
I to complain.

This is how you do an away kit.

Class! That was the first kit I had, around ‘76 or ‘77. Not a fan of this new one, I even think the home kit looks worse than last season. There are many much better fan concept kits out there.

I think it looks stupid. It may grow on me, like others have said, if we win it probably.

But this kits not aimed at me.

The club are making a point of having one strip sinned at traditionalists, another at a new generation and one a bit more feminine.

Football ain’t just for Middle Aged men anymore and if we want to sign better players we have to generate more income.

The aim shouldn’t be to get some fans to buy all three kits because who does that? It is and should be to get the biggest spread of fans to buy one shirt each.

Sorry but this doesn't do it for me. It looks like someone threw a bottle of ink at the shirt.

How difficult would it have been to just go for a straight yellow shirt which so many have been screaming out for?

An opportunity missed, and that deserves to be reflected in the sales.

God only knows what these shirt designers will come up with for the third kit.

Thinking about it, do we really need a third kit, or is this just blatant profiteering by the kit manufacturers?

I'm really old but I think this breaks the mould - in a good way. If it proves lucky, I'm sure the doubters will change their tune.

Like someone said, think the club are avoiding having two plain shirts. If people want an all yellow away kit then they'd have to put up with a different home kit and then the same complaints about it being untraditional would surface.

The club are trying to appeal to both sides of that, and that's a good thing. There's a shirt for both groups.

Interested to see what the out-there design for the third kits going to be

Just had one of those lovely reality checks:
We're still in the Prem. We getting going again
in days. Marsch seems bedded in. And the
squad is shaping up. And I'm sorta whinging
about the away kit. Ha. Bring on the season.

It’s a rubbish away kit.
