Green and Black away kit **OFFICIAL**

[Notters]

tell you what i like the retro jacket as well

er, they've been doing those for years.

Love the new shirt.

It's right up there with the classic pink NOBO kit.

 

[Washboard Didgets]

Like that.

And although the sponsor isn't anything amazing, I still prefer it to IT First's shocker of a logo.

Those who have seen the home kit: Is it just a blue and White version of this? Or something different?...

 

[El Presidente]

Oh my days. I LOVE it. Was an age ever agreed on for how old is too old for wearing a replica kit? I'm 41.

At LEAST 42!

 

[jezzer]

Im sorry but the socks look definitely gay.

I LOVE IT, I think it looks f***ing great, I am pinching myself almost on an hourly basis at the moment, is all this really happening??

 

[Tesco in Disguise]

best kit ive seen us in in years. love it all, especially sponsor. whether i get it will be down to what the back looks like.

 

[Notters]

Does this mean the new shop isn't opening this week?

 

[Magic Sponge]

That is fantastic! A blue and white version for the home kit and i will be DELIGHTED!

you wont be disappointed then

 

[Washboard Didgets]

And regardless of the shade of green this is so much better than tired old red and black, and full stripes with no nasty 'swoosh'...

Massive improvement.

 

[Ian Bairds Fist]

Vile.

This.

Exactly. Whilst I'm very excited about the new shirts I probably won't buy either of them because the sponsor will no doubt RUIN them. We were spoiled with Skint I know, but this uninspiring chunk of text in a white box we'll be displaying next season is WEAK and will NOT help us sell shirts.

With all the new sponsor money coming from American Express over stadium naming rights (which we've NEVER had before) it seems a real shame that we couldn't celebrate the first year back in our very own home ground by releasing a one season special shirt with NO sponsor. Would love to know how well such a shirt would sell, although I'm sure it would never sell so well as to negate the income from a shirt sponsorship deal. Sadly

Yeah right cos the last thing you want to do when you've spent £90m plus on a stadium, £5m plus on players,(about to fork out £15m on training ground) is create a revenue stream. Is there someone who can help you before you post?

How the hell have we ended up with a green kit?! It looks cheap and nasty, just horrible.

 

[Seagull27]

I really like it.

Also, Hoskins looks well FIT

I mean, err... strapping young lad, yes.

Leave it out . Both Brighton United 1898-1899 and Brighton and Hove Rangers 1899- 1900 palyed in variations of green shirts and black shorts or green and white striped shirts and white shorts.

It displays the Albion forefathers heritage. I think the Albion played in Black and White strips in their first season.

I've got to say that is a billion times better than the awful red and black swishy thing we had last year. If there are stripes down the back then that is classic shirt; no flashes, swirls, dots or any of the other bits they add to try and make each shirt a unique collector's item. (Pity the green is a bit vile but you can't have everything and I'm certainly NOT complaining).

Even the logo isn't THAT bad; it's not as good as Skint (what could be though?) but it's much better than the IT First one.

EDIT: And as has been pointed out the green and black colors have a historical connection with the Albion going back to our very earliest years, far more so then red or yellow.

Going to reserve final judgement till I can see it in 'the flesh' so to speak, but not sure I like the shade of green...

 

[Deleted member 18477]

[Conkers]

Yes! Looks fab!
