Even if it would touch their ankles. The point is it's illegal to put a gambling sponsor on a childrens product. Most clubs just remove it altogether and have it blank, which looks nothing like the kit they see their heroes playing in. This keeps the look of the kit which I think is a decent idea.

P and L Brentford 'Boro Sheff Utd Stoke W and B Forest Rotherham Villa maybe. I think we'll wear this as much as possible for 'marketing'. Wouldn't be surprised to see us have a white shorts version for any clashes with black shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnderMB Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 I'm not particularly fussed about the Robin returning, because the crest is nice enough, if not a little boring. What I'm worried about is the club not checking with the Football League around the rules of having one badge. It was only two years ago that the club had to backtrack on their stupid sleeve hashtag idea, so it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't check this beforehand, and the Robin is forced to go.

Bristol Rob Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 We are 3 pages in and so far not one comment (unless I have missed it) saying 'I think it looks shit'. That must be a first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should always wash your garments before wearing them . The chemicals used in the manufacturing process can be nocive to the body . If you buy something from a boutique you don't know who's tried it on previously ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yozzarian Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 Have to say I love the away kit and while I am disappointed that the Robin may not appear on the home shirt or P & L, it is clever of the club. They may use this as a sales tester for next year before returning it to all shirts and they know that this move is likely to increase shirt sales - who wouldn't want to have an attractive home shirt AND a shirt with the Robin on it? Cynical? Definitely arguable, but you can see the rationale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
