They clearly want to make inroads in the Saudi market so why shouldn’t they market this kit ? My point is if they hadn’t gone down this route due to worry about backlash, where do they stop pandering to outside influences. If our new tops have visit Saudi Arabia on them they’ll get exactly the same stick from the usual suspects. They clearly think this is a good marketing move and I support the move entirely.

Think it looks like a nice kit. same.... genuinely thought it was based on the 99/00 away kit, and the blue and Gold away was based on the 98/99 away...

Kanji Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Could be a fan shirt without sponsor? Then they’ll release a more authentic kit with sponsor? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUFC_Chris Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 (edited) The blue on the Castore logo is definitely to match the motif on the crest. Not Wonga or Fun88 blue. Edited May 21, 2022 by NUFC_Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the retro tops it was a bit of a lottery to get one that followed the curvature correctly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 The fact we still have stripes all the way down is a good indication we'll still have red numbers imo. If you're going to have stripes you need a bright colour to offset it and make it readable. Would hate to see us go back to having a square patch on the back to accommodate white numbering, especially when (imo) the red looks great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 It's been fairly well discussed and acknowledged that in matters of a religious nature our new owners aren't the most forgiving or flexible bunch. It's not beyond the bounds of probability that they've pied off Fun88 for the whole sinful gambling malarkey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have had good shirts with white numbers without the patch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
