paultheroyal QPR fans are in great delight we are copying their old kit....


Bless 'em. Glad the fakes have something to smile about.


Yeah - at least Brentford fans can watch half their old team play in the Premiership.
QPR haven't had anyone good enough for us to want since Michael Meaker :shock:


I wouldn't mind Lee Cook, the £10,000,000 man. :lol:

whoever designed that Reading kit should be shot. Lazy designing IMO. Just like Porsche designers.

I really like the 'convict' inspired away kit!

Shame they're not updating the neckline of the home kit too....

silas Must have been 1993/94 when we had the blue and yellow away kit and yellow and red third kit 8)

Glad to hear the home kit isn't changing as well


Yer the home kit is quality I must admit. And thank goodness that disgusting Red kit has been relegated and we've gone for some decent colours. I really liked the away kit we used in our promotion system, why did we have to change?

Compo's Hat

Compo's Hat Like the new shirt, but not sure on the lettering and numbers.


Looked at the first photo are thought to myself she's fit.

Then i saw the second photo and realised she's unlikely to even be 16! :oops:

Bet i wasn't the only one


guilty.....though maybe they ought to have photoshopped out her nipples :lol:


You were looking way too closely :shock:

Has she heard of a bra yet?


On that note - I'm not sure this article is entirely appropriate!

£5 extra for the badges I'm afraid.

Small piece in the Observer yesterday on new kits.

On Spurs brown, narrow fitting strip "- well at least it is not hoops, which is why all Reading fans look fat."

In this case that is a fact - I, otherwise, appear slender in all other attire. :oops:

Just seen the Peace Cup sirts with the players names in Korean.

I want one.

Do you think they will go on auction :P , or are they 'swapped' at the end of game :cry: ?

I think it's not the players' names but a Korean subsidiary of Kyocera.

Think you are right. could probably pull the woll over most SWLers eyes, if it wasn't for that large Korean community - they will probably point out Kevin Doyle is not Korean for 'Print, copy fax'

I hope we don't have something similar (in English clearly) when we come back. I hate seeing shirts with advertising plastered all over the available space.

EDIT: Just realised there's a rule in the Prem that forbids it. Thank swind*n for that.

my main concern about this new kit is the visibility for players trying to play quick football in poor weather conditions..

the pictures from todays game don't exactly do this any favours.

i like the kit but i have my doubts about how often it's going to be used in the winter months of the season.

thinking of buying them on-line for the sprogs, but a couple of questions for anyone who has bought one

what is the quality like, bobbling up already?
is the cut/ sizes similar to home kit?

Was expecting my shirt to arrive today after ordering on-line. Left a note on the door as I am out at work all day advising them to leave it in the shed at the back of the house.

No can do. They can't leave it anywhere, either in the shed or the neighbour's house, even with my consent, written or verbal. The only way they can do this is with signed consent from the sender, ie RFC.

My only option is now to pick it up from Hailsham which is about an hour round trip. Regretting not just waiting now for the first home game to buy it!

Got the kids them on launch date.

Impressed with the quality, so much better than the home shirt although it would be hard pushed to be inferior.

Sizes seem to be slightly larger aswell.
