Wycombe Royal That's £38 I won't be spending.


The OS The Club will be sending all Season Ticket Holders a special voucher worth £5 that can be redeemed on Friday 4th, Saturday 5th or Sunday 6th August, a week in advance of the official launch.


No, that's £33 you won't be sepending. :wink:

Maybe I wanted the sleeve patches.

Hideous.

Wasn't going to buy one anyway, though, so I'm not part of the target market. (If you are part of the target market, and this is really what you want, then there is something seriously wrong with your brain.)

They've taken the worst bits from Fulham and Blackburn's kits and put them together in a sort of Frankenstein way that is absoutely disgusting.

Not many reading fans have taste.

Mmm. Mixed feelings on this.

+
– More traditional royal blue
– More hoops (on the front at least)


– Another kit with blue shorts and socks
– The arms are a mess. Should have had symmetric coloured hoops
– Neck looks too fussy

+/–
– For a non-hooped back it's not bad. Better than last years
– Quality looks reasonable

I think (hope) it will be grower. Better than the away kit.

The more I see it from the front, the more I like it but it has to be short sleeved, those long sleeves are just wrong!

I absolutely hate it from behind though. We look a bit Birmingham. :?

or even worse, Wigan.

It's too fussy IMO they've over-designed it if anything.

Harold I've seen the New Reading kit today. Much better than last seasons. It has the same collar as the new away kit. Blue arms with the traditional hoops and solid back with no Print - Copy - Scan - Fax on it.


:wink:

Shorts and socks are the best part of the kit.

There's three panels joining at the collar bone, which makes it look messy.

Quite like the back.

All in all, very Premiership.

Was quite liking our new away kit until someone told me it looked like Bradford City. :( Also looks a lot like Pompey away.

The current Reading shirt I have is about 4/5 years old (the one with the white side panels) and I was hoping this new shirt would be a nice shirt that I would want to buy. Now I'm having second thoughts, having seen this latest creation. Bollocks. Maybe I might just buy one anyway. :shock:

And they both stayed in the Premiership on their first season. :wink:

agreed, once i looked at all the pictures on the off site i decided i actually quite like the fact that it's not normal and a bit hap-hazard!
