TBW Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 Why isn't the home shirt the same style? It's beautiful! ... in both colours. Though the sponsor could move down slightly. Now we await the third choice Goalkeeper socks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INCRED Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 So, second and third kits could be interesting?? Hope one kit is black, I wonder if the purple & lime will continue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olé Posted June 29, 2019 Report Share Posted June 29, 2019 I notice Bristol City on the badge is also misaligned just like it was on the preview home shirts, am beginning to think it's not a one off and these are all going to be this bad. Such a shame. And my OCD will play havoc every time I see the kit this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Cyril Posted June 29, 2019 Report Share Posted June 29, 2019 Having done the research on this, the pattern has been purchased from the American military. It is a specially designed camouflage pattern made up of computer generated disruptive patterning designed to confuse the opposition striker. Much like the break up patterns seen on zebra or tiger, it fools the eye and makes it very difficult to spacially assess the position of the wearer. It is used on stealth aircraft and ships to provide a revolutionary semi-cloaking device effect. Worn on a goalkeeper shirt, this will provide a marginal but important gain, confusing players in front of goal and making the positioning or distance of the keeper near impossible to assess quickly. So expect a shed load of misplaced back passes and own goals. Bugger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was in grey and black, definitely. We'll know when he takes his first drop kick of the season wearing the shirt. If he immediately afterwards puts his hands over his ears, he'll be thinking he fired a depth charge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
