there seems to be enough to suggest this is not the feelings of all the crowd,how about a poll?have to be fair to club if traditional does not sell-have to look at how to make money.maybe a heritage style shirt is what you want rather than upto the minute which sells ok.not a fan of purple but it helps the club and i wear it occasionally.

I'd love to see us break from tradition one year and have a shirt that is basically a print ofhttps://www.ayorkshireheart.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/SaltsMill-Hockney.jpeg" >

The away shirt could behttps://www.city-of-bradford.com/cartwright-hall-01.jpg" >

You still keep leaving your keys under the mat at the back door so it's way too easy.

By the way you need to get some more gas for your soda stream.

Personally, this years home shirt looks great and the away kit is nice also.

Well done to the club and the shirt designer for making this years kit!

Traditional kit might appeal to some but you wouldn't see the youth of today walking proudly in a retro bulls kit. The more people wear the kit outside a match day the better!!

I think a heritage top from the club is a great idea. Do a smaller run, have it higher quality than the home/away shirts and charge abit more if necessary. Even if it doesn't sell out there would be no need to cut the price at the end of the season as its not tied to one year. No odds in having it on the shelves at full price till they sell.

The level of interest shown in that poll of old shirts earlier this year surely suggests there is a market. I've not bought a new top for years as I've not fancied any of them.

My opinion is that the traditional designs whilst being welcome, have been poorly delivered in the past. I think the versions of RAAB hoops and V could have been done better. The non traditional tops have been the better designs (last 2 aside) IMO eg 2005 and 2009

The whole shirt decision is marketing based and if the new design is too similar to the previous year then many will decide not to bother buying it. This is probably emphasised more with traditional designs, they are, by their nature, bound to be more than a bit 'samey' and more than usual are likely give them a miss if repeated too often.

There has to be a lot of money to be made with shirts so I can't imagine the club would want anything which wasn't liked. I guess it's easy to say they should listen to the fans but, as is always the case, the fans are all telling them different things.

I would gladly pay £60 for a good 'QUALITY' heritage shirt.

I don't understand the need for a different shirt every year tbh. We've kept the same home shirt for 08/09 seasons and thats it :/

2007 - was a decent shirt with the hoops. I think we should play 2012 to 2013 in this kit icon_smile.gif

2008/2009 - home shirt was good basic and simple. Away for 08 was the black one? which was pretty good but that blue one was ace. Should have had Blue one for 2010 away kit.

2010 - excellent shirt, should have kept it until 2011. And also had 2009 blue away kit for this season. The red away kit was ace I thought and should have had that for 2011/12 seasons.

2011 - good home shirt but should have had it 2014/15 seasons. Purple away kit is the best one for a few years should have kept thatfor 2013/14 seasons.


For every odd year they should change the away kit but for every even year change home kit.

In an ideal world I'd agree but replica shirts are a major source of income to club and one of ways they can afford to offer the cheaper season tickets is by generating more income from shirt sales. At end of the day no ones forcing anyone to buy them every year.

I meant no need to change both kits every year.

Of course there is, as has been mentioned it is a major (perhaps THE major) source of income that a club have. And I dare say if we did NOT bring out a new kit each year then the fans would demand one as it is always a real highlight of the pre-season and a source of excitement when a new kit is revealed.

Anyway, if people do not like it one year they will probs buy the following years one keeping a regular source of income to the club.
