  • Quality Of New Home Shirt

    Thinking of ordering the new home shirt today and am wondering from those of you who've already bought it, is it the the usual mediocre Lotto quality? Is the badge still a fuzzy transfer thing etc.?
    "Imagine a relationship that went wrong but you held on in there for years: that's what it is like supporting a football team. Your loyalty to a team can never die. Ties are stronger than they could ever be with a woman. If she goes and sleeps with your best mate, it's over. If the Rs' boss, Ian Holloway, slept with my best mate, QPR would still be my team. Even if many of the things that you loved about going to matches have gone - terraces, team shirts without sponsors and being able to smoke at grounds - you still stick with your team." - Peter Doherty.

          3rd kit seems to be more popular. Hope we get a better home kit next season.

              I appreciate that shirt design is of low priority in the big scheme of things but if we're actively trying to sell shirts in Asia (I know it's more than just about selling shirts out there), why not at least try to make them attractive and marketable to the UK market? Home kit - Proper hoops, no girlie neck designs, and a less flamboyant badge would do it for me. Away kit Dennis The Menace red & black hoops or red and black quadrants (again, no trying to be clever with angled shoulders or silly necks. Third kit - don't care. This is the first year in ages when I'll not be buying one and opt for a retro one instead. Still, when all is said and done, I'm still well chuffed with how things are overall. I would like to be able to proudly wear a Premiership QPR shirt though (selfish of me I know).

                Went to order the shirt online there only to discover that shipping to Ireland is £15!! Would've brought the total price to about €80 which is plain ridiculous! I'll just have to wait and get it on my next trip over to LR.

                  Think we'll sell many shirts in Scotland Wales and NI then? Plenty in NW and NE England? The Midlands? I don't. It'll be London and SE England in the main.
                  Supporting QPR isn't just about a football team. It's about roots and identity.

                    That pretty much sums up how I feel,cant wait til were shot of this Lotto deal,I still prefer the old badge to the new Polo club one but as many people have said on here its about taking thing forward to a new era its a shame that the new badge just reminds me of flabio!! still these are all minor gripes,Just an amazing time to follow the R's I know we haven't actually done anything on the pitch yet but Ive never known such Optimism at the club it appears like weve actually got owners who are the real deal unlike Wright,Flabio et al!!

                        Next year the kits will be IMO .
                        Blue and white hoops: obvious reasons our colours
                        Red shirt :similar to this years colour wise lucky colour in Asia so it will be that after all we are trying to raise our profile over there so why would we not have a red kit?
                        Caterham: to link us with Caterham.
                        Tony can do what the hell he wants with the other kits as long as the home kit is blue and white hoops fat or thin I don't care.after all look what he has done he has the right to make a kit red if it brings in more money.

                          That's what you get for buying a Leinster shirt

                              Thats a bit pedantic to be fair. You know what i meant...and for the record, I'm in the south west.
