Good luck to you guys for contributing to the club via new shirt purchases! I cannot justify buying the new style shirt every season on top of the rail fares, food and entrance money each time; but I bought last season's shirt for £12 and will still be proud to wear that!
I think its unfair that they change the kit every year, not everyone can afford it along with all the other costs we incur getting to the ground. What happened to the days of every other season?
We are lucky to live close enough to the ground that it doesn't cost much at all to get there.
My fault surrey chad for moving to the South Coast!

The last time we had the same kit for 2 seasons was 2003-2005. Every club now changes every single season and that isn't going to change now as it is all about money.
The big clubs make hundreds of millions every season from shirt sales.

Yes I do understand the need, especially that of clubs with smaller stadiums, to increase revenue. The revenue possibilities are not great for them!
I’ve always wondered is there a rule that every team must produce a different shirt for each season or is it just up to the clubs to decide?
Good question ranger-boy! I am guessing that it is a bit like what happened with university fees being capped at £9k for the best unis - and then all jumped to that amount!
The home kit isn’t nice at all, yes the new picture today doesn’t look as bad as the original one but still equally poor.
- Cheap lazy adaptation on last seasons shirt - Trying to add a it of a collar - Adding red to what should be blue/white
Three strikes and they’re out
They should have just kept it exactly the same if they were going to do that, I wouldn’t have had a problem with that at all. However just a couple of thing strips of red will see them charge the usual £50 for it
