Interesting topic arose on the 2011 kits thread about what exactly is your clubs classic shirt design and which shirt epitomises it? Some clubs seem to change patterns, colours etc every year yet others stay with same colours or incorporate the classic shirt design someway. So post a pic of the shirt you think embodies your clubs classic colours and design.

I'll start with HKR's which is quite easyhttp://www.octopussport.com/hull_kr/images/hlkr.jpg" >

Although a newer variation on what many call our 'classic' shirt

That's a nice looking jersey from Hull KR. It beg's the question what the hell happened?

Looking at the two hull club shirts above it is obvious that when they play each other one club MUST change to an away shirt to avoid a colour clash!!!

Well to the RFL it's obvious.

Red and Black I can see how those colours are confusing .

The all red Broncos shirt from our last season is the best I've ever seen.

Classic York City Knightshttp://www.oldrugbyshirts.com/img/season_shirts/thumbnails/york-city-knights-home-rugby-shirt-s_1054_1_500x400.jpg" >

Yet another good looking jersey the York City Knights old one

I think we are almost all in agreement that the 'classic' type of club shirts are far better than the new ones that look like polo shirts/tennis shirts/ or that they were designed by a blind monkey in an animal testing laboratory.

It's up to the likes of you and me not to buy these new cheap looking things. The clubs will soon get the message. Most of them are charging £45 for one.

That means a club like Quins would lose a total of £90 if both their fans didn't buy the new one.

Hit your club where it hurts if you don't like the new designs.

The top one looks a bit 'Castleford-ish' for my liking but the bottom one is an excellent looking shirt.

I think you might just be the worst poster I have ever seen on these boards.

Right.

So lets say if your club (I'm assuming it's York city Knights from the links you posted) brought out a brand new shirt made out of cheap polyester covered in garish patterns and bizarre looking sponsors logos that would look more at home in a NASCAR pitlane or a Twenty20 cricket match you would buy it anyway?

I think I'm with you on this one - Phipps is under the illusion that he is an hilarious wind up merchant.

I thought Wheels was a rhino fan?

Agreed. Phipps, you talk utter rubbish. Where's Barry Mackenzie when you need him?
