Kid in the Riot Posted July 29, 2023 Report Share Posted July 29, 2023 3 hours ago, Supersonic Robin said: I've never been very convinced by this suggestion. IMHO, it's quite clear that it's a Robin. In all honesty, I get the impression that those saying "it looks like a chilli on a fishing line" have sat in front of it for 10 minutes looking at it from different angles and trying to think of something to witty to say - I struggle to believe that many people genuinely think that's what it looks like on first (or second, or third) impression. (That's not so much a criticism of you BCR, more a criticism of whoever was first to start making that suggestion a few years ago) Yepp, I think this is a fairer criticism - Brentford's badge does look a bit more professional than ours. Quite a few of the clubs with new 'roundel' badges have added more detail to their logo in the centre than we have (Brighton not so much). Comparatively, ours looks fairly simple. I suppose it's a matter of taste more than anything. Just looking at those makes me cringe even more. Ours is comfortably worse than the others. I just think that design of the robin is an abomination. Those thick black lines, and the articulation itself is just...poor. Shrews and Man City are the two best ones, and the rest are meh. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dredd Posted July 29, 2023 Report Share Posted July 29, 2023 The brief was clearly we want something like Derby and Swansea that can used in isolation, but bar a bit of training wear and some polos we haven't really. Personally, I f'ing hate it. it's abstract, uninspiring, and if I suddenly came into a few billion and bought the club it would be the first thing to go. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry Posted July 29, 2023 Report Share Posted July 29, 2023 Just a thought.. If you bought a home or 3rd kit last season, with the promise of that kit being used until this season, can you claim an exchange or refund? There must be several variations to the kit by now and the season hasn’t started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mendip City Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 I see Man U have signed a £900m ten-year deal with Adidas…. Crazy money I know but I’d love to know how that compares with our O’Neils deal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy money I know but I’d love to know how that compares with our O’Neils deal! Absolutely no relevance TBF, even if City went with Adidas or ManU were with O'neills the massive difference is status of the two clubs would be like the difference between chalk and cheese. Unless it was pure speculation to the value of the agreement City had reached with the current kit supplier.

Intrigued to see how it lands A lot has been made of us parting ways with Hummel. Coventry still haven't released their away (or 3rd) kits and they are going to need that for Sunday. Their home kits won't be on sale until after about 3 games into the season. They only just managed to get home kits to play friendlies in but didn't even have enough time to put the sponsor on. We don't need an away kit ASAP as we have the 3rd kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we aspire to be more impressively run than Coventry, what with their stadium and other off-field issues (doing well on it mind!). It's the silence that's annoying me regarding the away kit at this point. If the club just put out a statement to say 'we'll be releasing the away kit in September due to a delay and utilising the home and third shirt until then', that'd be absolutely fine. But the head-in-the-sand attitude to the kit issues is grating! 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m still shocked people are not getting it, The away kit will be blue, they are releasing it as late as possible as people can finish complaining/moaning about the third kit, then release the blue away kit just close enough to the start of the season or just after. The people who run the club are not stupid, they know a lot of people won’t be happy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
