I said that when i heard the seagull was going to be a different colour...

How would Coventry feelhaving a pink elephant on their badge?...

Or Millwall with a green lion?...

Or even Palace with a purple eagle?...

Totally agree, it looks like a bloody bat.
It would be a proper class kit if it had the club badge instead.

Perhaps it is to do with the state of our beaches and all the oil being pumped into the sea. would appease a few nimby's before we get Falmer

VTI, you've chosen about the most vicious of gulls, the Great Black-back gull, which eats other gulls among other things. A group of birdwatchers I was with in Banff in Scotland saw one attack and kill a common gull and eat the lot.

The Mediterranean Gull is a classy gull. You don't get many of them in Sussex, but one used to roost at the Mewsbrook lake in Rustington. It looks like the black-headed one in Crabbers' picture.

Another nice gull is the kittiwake, which breeds on the cliffs at Seaford.

Whinge,Whinge,Whinge - for god's sake get a bloody life you guys.
If you don't like it don't bloody buy it :angry:

There's plenty of us out there who will buy it and are grateful for the hard work that DK & co. put into the merchandising.
No matter what the design somebody's always gonna be unhappy about something

They had to make changes or else what would be the point in a new kit? :dunce:

I think it looks like the dogs bollocks - far better than the last kit :clap2: :clap2:

the new kit would have awesome if they had put the old, round badge on it. The retro lovers would have creamed themselves and I would definetly have bought it.
