Pancrate1892 Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 (edited) Would have preferred it without noon and that shit emblem below the champions league badge. Obviously the letters are premier league but that's probably being pedantic Edited June 11, 2023 by Pancrate1892 Pic not displayed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mondonewc Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 FYI anyone planning to go to the club shop to get champions league badge your best off going on a morning as they stop doing it at a certain point in the day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 I presume you can get it with just the Champions League badge and not the foundation bit below? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NE27 Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Canny mad how much everyone hates the red name and numbers when you read through the insta posts. The red numbers for me are Newcastle, even if I grew up with mostly black&white or whatever iterations of blue or gold. Black and white is a no go so not sure why anyone even asks. Not sure if it's just creeps on insta who don't realise how we frequently used red in our past, or if they're just youngins? That said, last season's mashup of baby blue/yellow/ red was a bit much for me! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 I don’t really consider the numbers part of the design TBH, just do whatever is easy to read. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 The red names and numbers came in partly because everyone hated the back not being striped. Personally think they look absolutely class and hark back to our past and the city's crest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
huss9 Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 different red now though isnt it. wasnt as shiny and bright/plastic back on the day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 (edited) Red numbers over boxes on the back for me every day. Like you say red is nearly as intrinsically Newcastle as black and white is considering its use on the crest.

Was only once we got promoted in 93 and changed to the Asics strips and the premier league that we dropped the red numbers until 2017 when they were brought back.

Black or White look fine to me, could outline the inner line thicker on the white numbers to make it even clearer but I'd plump for black. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As great as that is, just couldn't see it fly nowadays unless it had a patch. I'm sure that's the exact reason we ended up going for red because everyone complained about plain backs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viana Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 5 hours ago, LFEE said: Yeah I’ve been wondering the same but probably more calmly ? Are they officially white with black turnovers?

Keegans Export Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 I think the kit looks fine with white or black socks but if they've done the promo shots with white socks then changed their mind without changing the photos (and not letting anyone know until the kit is on sale) it doesn't exactly dispel the theory that Castore are still a bit amateurish compared to the big boys.
