wayne allisons tongues Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 Is it me or does that rugby shirt look like it has a bear on one row and bear shit on the next row. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another by the numbers video from Fever Pitch as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roe Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 I guess they could do worse then. Looks promising for the next kit to be revealed.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BetterRedthanBlue Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 Christ that kit for the bears is not filling me with much hope for the away shirt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRock Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 Is that a ‘space invaders’ tribute shirt? Anyone, watch Nige’s press conference with the O’Neills ‘tag’ positioned neatly half below/ half under the collar? They do seem to have an issue positioning any logo on their shirts, most are way above normal chest level. Hopefully ‘Splat’ will also migrate up and, with any luck, away.

Someone who maybe didn't graduate design school. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that 0-3 on O’Neills kits .. 0-4 if you count the keeper kits that look like cheap Hummel rip offs in my opinion. Anyway… the football is back tomorrow so think I might retire from talking about this stuff until the away comes out hahaha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyderInACan Posted August 7, 2023 Report Share Posted August 7, 2023 New shirt is by far and away the worst since the rebrand to Bears. Jon has had a mare yet again FFS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merrick's Marvels Posted August 7, 2023 Report Share Posted August 7, 2023 From a Bristol Football Club supporter of 40+ years standing... it's appalling. Just because his dad's money has kept them alive, doesn't mean CrayonBoy can desecrate the team's kit. You'd like to think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised this hasn't been mentioned but these plans have been scrapped and the game will now be at AG8 and live on TNT sports 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t_b Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 I see that Bears are still frantically trying to sell Barbarians tickets (if all the sponsored ads I see are anything to go by). Looks like loads of seats everywhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin phantom Posted September 7, 2023 Admin Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 £70 for that - FFS they can keep that Apart from the fact it was a random statue in Bristol for 6 years, I'm not getting the connection with the rugby club Are we to have a polar bear or grizzly bear on a future kit?

Frankie_Red Posted September 8, 2023 Report Share Posted September 8, 2023 I was there. About 10 or 11k crowd I would guess. The new away shirt was flying off the shelves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted September 8, 2023 Admin Report Share Posted September 8, 2023 Surprised there was that many there From various pics I have seen the crowd looked very sparse It would certainly explain why social media has been constantly plugging the fixture for the past few weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
