New shirt in its full glory - with red piping.

[ollyhoops]

we look like reading big time.

Absolutely bloody rubbish. Hoops back please

[Devon Park Ranger]

Don't like it!
Why they couldn't have just extended the blue block around the back to make a proper hoop is beyond me... At the moment it looks like its just there to make the gulf air logo stand out..

Correct me if im wrong but isn't the purpose of a shirt to make money from the fans ? I'm sure Lotto don't just send their customer (our board) one shirt design and say "here this is what your getting" Surely they send them several designs for consideration so that their customer gets to choose which one they want manufactured.. If so doesn't it make sense for the board to choose 3 designs and then allow us 'their customers' to choose which one we would like to wear ?

Lotto paid us up front. Doesn't matter to the club how many shirts are sold IIRC>

So your saying Lotto paid us for the rights to make the shirts and collect all the revenue from the sales ?

[haqpr1963]

I look at that shirt, and the first thing I think of is the Fiat Multipla....

Could have been great, but isn't.

Close but no cigar QPR......

Yup - same as other first party shirt details. Think it only applies to shirts sold through club channels.

[kingy10]

Not impressed. Looks rushed

[Nik29]

That's vile.

[80sCasual]

The panel looks like the panels for the numbers back in the 70s

I don't like it.

[Youvebeenrangered]

I think it looks alright to be fair.

[stanistheman]

We still have at least 2 hoops that go all the way around. The way the League/FIFA is about shirts and numbers it is about the best we can get. At least we haven't given up on the hoops and have a completely blank back as some clubs, notably Reading do.

I take it the 2nd hoop gets tucked in the shorts then.

I don't really like it,but need to see the back to fully decide.

I dont think there are any FIFA or League rules about hoops and stripes on the back of shirts. Some clubs have them and some don't.

Even if there was some rule stipulating numbers and names need to ve on a plain background there are ways to do it with some sort of blank space like QPR's millennium shirts.

I preferred the GulfAir from this seasons. Looked nice with the Eagle.

I agree and I don't really like the red stripe or the top hoop not going all the way around.

But to be honest, as long as the team does well and preferably wins promotion I don't think I'll care.

I wont be buying it though.

[stanistheman]

ahhh well at least i know what shirt im NOT buying lol.. away shirt for me this year!

you haven't seen the pink and orange combo yet
