As Said before mate a few times, i was told by the club the shirt was altered due RFL numbering issues, the way in which a number is stamped onto it was a problem with the initial design, particularly the angles of the =#FF0000R=#FFBF00A=#000000B blades.

So, does that mean that moving forward the design will be a la heath l'estrange pic but the club has stock of the Langley vintage?

I missed the posts detailing the reasons for the change btw

If you don't like our shirt for this year check this load of rubbish out!

I cant quite believe that if you buy a REPLICA shirt it is actually a different design to the actual one the players wear. Surely this misses the whole point in replica shirts. This will put me right off buying one!

a replica shirt thats differant to the ones the players wear

isn't that the the meaning of the word "replica" ? To replicate something the players wear? Maybe there's better technology going into the player's shirts and to let the public wear the same shirts would make the cost a lot higher? I've no problem with it so long as they look the same. I don't think anybody's fans will be wearing the exact same shirt as the ones the players wear unless they win a raffle.

from what i've seen of the 2 "different" designs they look pretty much the same. nobody's going to mistake which club you are following wearing one or the other.

Spot on there Philgee.

Im going to be taking mine back when the away shirt comes out and just a swap.

I don't pay £45 for something that the players won't be playing in.

Keep it in its box and take it on Antiques Roadshow in twenty years.

Or you can sell it on ebay in 15 years when it looks cool again.

I'll just swap them for the away shirt,. that way the club still has my money.

I thought they might go back to their roots - Red Shirt with Yellow V and white shorts
