I reckon it affects them negatively if they had to pull on a burger King wrappper on a cold Tuesday night , away at Grimsby lol

Would distract me if I was in Burger King wrapper - thoughts would be on lunch rather than footy lol

Actually, the more I look at the home shirt the more I like it!

Easy birthday present for the missus to get for me, birthday is in September!

The trouble with sky blue is it can be a bit wishy washy.

This strip delivers that and for me it is a bit insipid, rather than a nice rich bold sky blue.

The away strip yellow and black isnt as bold as that colour scheme can offer.

Not the worst kits we have had but still an opportunity missed, all a bit middle of the road.

I thought it was yellow and blue?

On the shirt it looks black although the shorts are definately blue. Doesnt change my opinion of it whether it is black or blue?

Absolutely love them both, just a shame they are not going to be played at in Coventry.
Unless Fisher comes up with a cunning plan!

First time in a long time I am waiting for a shirt to be released. I think the last shirt I thought looked as good was the silver goalkeeper top I had years ago. Can't remember the year but loved that for some reason!

At least four more seasons of a manufacturer actually making kits specifically for us too, if we don't have a brown kit at some point I'll be very disappointed

I think we got out of the Nike deal at just the right moment. Their new teamwear lineup for 19/20 is really thin, and lots of clubs are releasing kits based on teamwear templates from 2-3 seasons back. The only ‘new’ template that’s half decent is the vapor template (that Peterborough are using, above) but in their case it’s just too similar to the previous template they used. The only alternative for them would be to reach back to an even older template, or use the other new template which imho is fucking awful:

I’d personally have been reasonably happy with us having a sky blue version of the vapor template since it’s actually a much higher quality template, but it’d still be very similar to last season’s kit in the process. What makes it worse for Posh fans is you can buy royal blue teamwear shirts off the peg for £12-20, whereas our (home) kit was always in a bespoke colour not otherwise on sale.

I was a bit pissed off moving away from a big brand like Nike. I thought the club were being cheap but now it totally makes sense!

I don’t go overboard re. kits they are what they are to me, this looks ok design wise not sure if sales will go through the roof but plenty will buy as always, just find under the present circumstances a second kit basically yellow an odd choice, but it’s still a nice design.

The kit will probably have been in design for ages and again is based on an old shirt... Really not sure what people expect the club to do in these circumstances!

My prediction for today. Is the site will crash pre orders will sell out and Sisu get the blame.

Iv seen quite a few tweets for rival fans saying they might buy one! crazy.

Definitely one for the kit collectors, Never understood the appeal of buying another teams kit myself. Haven't bought one of our shirts for about 7 or 8 years but I'll probably be buying this one... it's a beaut.
