Pepe the Horseman It's gonna be like this isn't it? :(



It's even worse. If it isn't named the worst kit of the 92 this summer I will be stunned.

:lol: I'm excited for the Twitter reactions

Snowflake Royal
Elm Park Kid The new kit design is already done - I saw it this morning.

It's . . . um. . . .interesting. Can't reveal anything other than i'm expecting that most of you are going to hate it.

Hmmm.

What are the possibilities here...

No hoops seems a crazy choice for a new owner
Scrapping blue and white seems a crazy choice as well

So that leaves:
No. of Hoops
Partial hoops
Weird stylistic choices with hoops (blurring, striping, radio interference, skylining, climate stripes)
Bonkers colour variation within the blue/white theme

Can’t be just lack of collar or shorts/socks colour from this exciting preview.

Without giving anything away about the shirt, do you know if this is something Couhig and co have had input on or a goodbye oxf*rd you present from Dai? That must be disclosable?


I can say that they've not done anything 'crazy' - it's basically the same format as always. But - you're on the right line with the 'stylistic choice'.

Is there a chance it's so bad it's good? Or is it just really bad? Think this is the most excited I've been about a kit launch.

Port Vale kit for next year and their 150th Anniversary is a thing of beauty

Will not have a Sponsor either, which is refreshing!



Sponsor free hoops would be amazing!

Maybe next year?

This day and age more likely there’d be an individual sponsor for each hoop :evil:

Feels like we owe Select Car Leasing a bit if the rumours are to be believed.

They aren’t rumours

We owe SCL loads and all loyal Royals should lease from them

Even if the owner is a fake hoops fan

Ah magic! Nothing better than a truly awful kit! They become iconic in future years.
