We already established from the "moronic fans" thread that we have a higher than average .deleted. fan to normal fan ratio than most.....

Well, this is what happens when said fans keep singing "yellows" constantly, and the same in between the verses of a famous Elvis song that has actually been amended so that it says "We're amber and blue"

If a fanbase can't agree on what colour we play in by being so bipolar on the issue, that pee stained looking rag is what you get!

It is but I hope it is a spoof or mock up. I can't fathom why Castore would leak this and not involve the club in an official unveiling using members of our squad.


It does look close to what I saw tbh

but I doubt castore have leaked it, someone at the club has received samples before release and been whatsapping them to people probably

The red one is the nicest design, but don’t like that colour on us. That in the light blue from this season would look great

I think they’ve printed onto white material just like Surridge did for 10 straight years. Looks like Castore did the same for Salford’s kit this season, but not for Wolves, Rangers, Newcastle or Charlton. Would be hilarious if we finally bin a rubbish kit maker who gave us cheap quality kits for ten years only for the new kit maker to do the exact same thing :lol:

I do think the yellow will be darker in person compared to the picture.

The home kit is a throwback design, but without being simple enough to be retro.

The away kit is a forest kit. Is that because forest had a Mansfield kit for their away kit this season? Returning the favour.

They look awful imo. Nothing new about them and certainly not worth buying. Surely they’re better than those :lol:

Obviously the club is okay with Castore giving us basement level quality kits. Printed onto white material, printed badges etc. How can we have 11 straight seasons of cheap, tacky quality kits?? Club can’t do owt right :lol:

Yes I like the home one. Looks like it’s got amber diagonal stripes with yellow diagonal stripes to me, light and dark blue diagonal on. Sides

I was hoping for a minimalistic copy of Wolves kit with deep amber instead of their gold at same quality of production. Doh !!

I’m going to go retro the proper way and pick an old one up from the charity shop, eBay or see if someone on here has one to sell or donate. The 3rd kit is the least awful but why oh why have we gone back to the naff shield again?

That picture doesn't show an amber jersey. It's not the '7 pints down yellow' that's the colour of your pee on a night out. However, that's not our colour.

Dulux would call the shade 'Ugly Duckling' and it'd stay on the shelves on a bank holiday whilst those around it fly in sales.

Just realised the badges look like they’re printed :oops: everyone complained about Surridge, I liked them. They were unique designs, with some designs we’ll look back on as classics.

Can’t we go back to the brown and blue if we are going proper retro?
Away kit sort of makes sense as it was always red as far away as I can remember.
