the club have missed a real opportunity in the marketing - if it had been available prior to Nov 5th it would have graced many a Guy Fawkes on the bonfire...

Not hard, I am the fashion authority and I say it is gash  |

Got a text off the lad I know who designed it and he said it looks miles better in the flesh, mind you, he would. And hes a pie.

We have, over the years had some pretty ghastly efforts. (The Asda diamonds one and the Lifting Gear Hire Bukta "Jazz Band" thing spring to mind) This one is, imho up there with the worst of them. Breaking with the tradition of hoops is not a new thing regarding our kits, remember the classic Windowcraft shirt, I even remember us playing in white shirts with a red vee (a la Saints) in the early 70's and in all yellow in the 1971 Lancs cup final. After all, it's what's inside the shirt that counts.

I don't think anyone was expecting a design quite like this one after such a classy jersey last season & it's abit of shock at first sight but I think more people will grow to like it in time. Personally I don't think it's as horrific as some people have said & although I am undecided right now I voted it as "ok" on the poll but I think I'll gow to like it more hopefully when I see it in the flesh & probably get one.

Think you could be right there Fred, although I'm sure it was a red V. Am i right in thinking the home team had to wear change kit in those days? |

To be fair he's done a good top the last two years and both the East and Miners tops are blinders, so for a pie he's not having a disaster.

I've got a team photo on my wall from 1971 of the team wearing a shirt with a vee and always presumed it was a red vee, though no ideas on why it was the case as I'm not as old as you or Fred  |

Youll probably find the ones who are whinging about the design are too old to buy and wear one anyway. Also theres only so much you can do with red and white hoops so we cant have that every year.'"
Oi! I'm not too old to buy one! I do think though the missing Leigh crest lets it down.
Oh, and that it looks like Picasso took a big dump on it. |

yes the home team did have to change, we have played with a red vee, my recollections of a blue v could well be affected by the amount of Double Diamond I used to consume in those days (for all you pups DD was a real gradely drink and Manns brown ale (mmmm) not this knatts pee that passes for lager these days - then again who remembers Grunhaller (sp) now that was cr*p)
