Wasn't super into the away but the more pink seems to offend certain types the more I'm liking it.

To be honest every time the teamsheet revealed we were wearing the green hoops or especially that bloody Frazzles kit I immediately felt we were onto a loser that day. Doubt the pink will have the same effect. We may or may not end up wearing whatever the third kit is this season as much if not more often than the pink anyway the way football is today.

Vertical stripe down the shorts is a big no-no for me though. Appreciate why they did it to go with the shoulders but it's a bit Reading-y and just cheapens the look IMO.

Still really bugs me that the sponsor has to be crammed in instead of them adapting it so the logo is in between the words on one line. And that they're a betting company obviously.

The sight of that green and black hoops kit always filled me with gloom.

Yeah it's funny isn't it. Sometimes I'd be pretty optimistic going in and then...

I'm convinced the result stats would fully back it up too if anyone was bored/sad enough to compile them.

I never understand why we don't have a black kit. Teams that play against us in black at Loftus Road often beat us so we should have black kit that we wear if a team turns up with a black kit. We put ours on they can't wear theirs.

Never knowingly right.

Whenever i've played against a team in black in 5 a side football tournaments etc they are always wa*kers that think they're the dogs nadgers.
Nah.. i like the pink

You see I liked our bright yellow kit, too years ago....

There has been an awful lot of the comments about the kit (not yours clearly) that have made it about being a girls colour, or a gay colour.

Nobody has to like every kit we have ffs, but if it's just because people have preconceived notions about the manliness of a particular colour, it's a shame.

If you don't like it, don't wear one. Don't be embarrassed by it though, that's for Brentford fans.

I have had "hatred" for certain shades of pink in the past - I couldn't eat Neopolitan Ice cream because of the pink end, but having seen the new away kit on the website, I have to say I really like it.

The home kit is "fine" just a bit too much of the red piping puts me off a bit. Red on the collar and sleeve ends would have been enough.

Still at 50yrs of age I have decided that no hooped based football shirts are going to do me any favours so will not be investing in either.

Has anyone asked the Women's team whether they feel the same way about playing in blue? Eh? Right, that's it. I'm telling Germaine Greer.

Home good, away not sure yet, need to see it in the flesh.

Like the away shorts tough, think fuscia pink and navy hoops would look better on the shirt.

Home kit is decent. Good job.

Away kit is terrible, even having seen more clips of it I still hate it. It's not a pink-is-for-girls thing - I just think it has no bearing on our history and I also hate bright shiny colours on a football kit. Woeful.

I like the away shirt a lot more than last year's rather dirgy green and black.

8/10 for me.

The more i look, the more horrendous it gets.

The op has cut off the shorts. They really do look like training shorts and they dont match. The full ensemble is almost too much to bear. Wtf have they done this to me for?

This monstrosity is seriously one of the ugliest kits i should think have ever been created.

It feels more like a case of Errea saying first season, look we gave you exactly what you wanted first year and we have given you what you wanted for the home kit this year. But you know that our general policy is to have a baboon that's been exposed to too many Barbie Dolls and My Little Pony cartoons design our kits in general so we have let him have that one.

The worrying thing is that there is no 3rd kit as yet - maybe they're still working on that. I guess that pink is unlikely to clash with anything so there's no need, but clubs normally have one for commercial gain if nothing else.

Luckily XTC foresaw this controversy back in 1989...



Anytime you rise, I'm here,
And I'm crazy for you pink thing.
You make me want to laugh,
You make me want to cry,
When I stroke your head I feel a hundred heartbeats high,
Pink thing.
I want to take you out and show you round the world,
Pink thing it'll be OK.
If I could only wake you from your slumber curled,
Pink thing what would straight folks say?
That man isn't fit to enter heaven.
That man is a sinner,
Ever burning in disgrace.
Pink thing, spit in my face,
I'd love you for it.
Anytime you call, I'll fall,
Into madness for you pink thing.
You make me want to live.
You make me want to die.
And when I stroke your head I feel a hundred heartbeats high,
Pink thing.
I want to take you out and show you to the girls,
Pink thing…
I want to take you out and show you to the girls,
Pink thing they're a whole new tribe.
If you could only see the way the way the gingham swirls,
Pink thing it's a whole new vibe.
That man isn't fit to be a father.
That man is a sinner,
'Fore they cast me down to die,
Pink thing, spit in my eye,
I'd love you for it.
Yes, I'd love you for it.
Anytime you rise, I'm here,
And I'm crazy for you pink thing.
You make me want to laugh,
You make me want to cry,
When I stroke your head I feel a hundred heartbeats high,
Pink thing.
Hundred heartbeats high,
Pink thing.
Hundred heartbeats high.
I want to introduce you,
Take you to the brink thing.
I want to introduce you,
Tell me what you think thing. I want to introduce you,
Make that missing link thing.
Don't you think it's time you met some female pink thing?
You make me want to laugh,
You make me want to cry,
So why is it I'm happy when there's tears down in your eye?
Little pink thing.
Pink thing, pink thing, tell me what you think thing
Oooh here comes pink thing

Regardless of how good or bad they look, the fact that they're trying to get nearly £50 for a top says it all for me.

£20 and I'd have bought four for the family and they'd have got £80 out of me but £50 and they'll get nothing from me I'm afraid...

Agree it does look quite nice in the images.

People can take or leave the colour but at least it's an original and thoughtfully designed shirt what with the two-tone hoops, and not a template bodge job like every other manufacturer would have given us.

Also I would STRONGLY suggest that this kit is a cosmic sign that we should all be singing Eberechi Eze to the tune of Raspberry Beret.
