Seems like it’s a crowd pleaser, the beauty of our kit is it’s hard to actually mess it up although we’ve managed it a few times in the past.

I wonder what the worst selling kit of recent times has been, the light blue Zebra one wasn’t great but different enough to appeal to some I bet 

edit my least favourite of recent years was 2 years ago with the weird light blue collar and totally shit sponsor 

And yet they've done so multiple times over the last fifteen years.

It's a blue and white kit with reversed halves. How difficult is that to do? Exceedingly so, apparently.

I'm too old to wear football shirts any more, but even if I wasn't, £60 is silly money for a football shirt.

I'd spend £60 on a football shirt for my Wednesday night football if I had any pride in the club anymore. Alas.

I actually bought last years to play in and the badge was one of the worst in living memory for joggers nipple

I bought last seasons black away kit for Thursday night football but I've not had the guts to wear it yet 😂

[RevidgeBlue]

Just out of interest does anyone know how many times we actually wore that horrific pink kit last season?

It cant have been many. I hated that particular kit but in general it shows how much the fans are being taken for mugs when they are expected to shell out another £60 for something thats used what, 4-5 times?

As much as I have enjoyed some of the recent kits, I can’t bring myself to buy one. It’s actually not to do with my Venky-hatred, but affordability.

As K-Hod said earlier, £60 for a football shirt is mental.

I have spent less (very often half the price) purchasing better-fitting shirts made from better quality fabrics, that are genuinely wearable in non-sport settings. All from this site, or from FootballTown or from various retro-kit sites.

"Full kit wanker"

Love it!

That deserves a new entry all of it's own in the Oxford English dictionary this year.

Adj: Elderly male wearing full soccer kit with neither the looks nor the physique to pull it off.

To be honest when a couple of pints and a glass of wine for the wife costs you well over £20 I don't think £60 for a shirt you wear repeatedly is that bad value

With no legitimate reason for wearing it 🤣

I don't particularly disagree with your point, but it looks to have been a good seller, I see it more regularly than the home or away shirts.

Popped over Accy Tesco last night and I saw 2 different people wearing it, for example.
See it all over the place.

Pink one has been rather popular my daughters wear it and is a hit with female supporters

I know it seems to have been popular in general - I just didn't like it at all.

I doubt we'll be selling many female shirts this year!

Official Football shirts are all around that price or higher yet plenty of fans buy them. 

The England Football shirt is now £65 pounds after being reduced from £85

PNE home shirt last season was £60

Man City home shirt for 25/26 season is £85

why was the Pink horrific Rev? 

It was very popular buy in the club shop and plenty of fans bought it.

Good for them! If I was spending £60 on a top, it wouldn't be a football shirt, that's for sure.
