Hmm I think I'm swaying towards the away shirt on first look! But with the cheap season ticket deal I might just get both this year!

On second thoughts thinking back, I wasn't too impressed with the black stripey things on the away shirt last year. They looked stuck on when you look at the shirt closeup, in contrast to them on the home one where they look part of the shirt.

First reaction on seeing the home one is that Lynchy's just been set about by Miss Whiplash and a cat o' nine tails!

My immediate thoughts on the home one are reasonably positive. Not sure initially about the asymetric design, but I reckon it'll grow on me more same as last year's did. I think they'll sell a load of them - its a striking design with a nice positive feel to it - and no doubt one to me. And nothing to do with Miss Whiplash, honest guv...

The away one I like a hell of a lot. Soon as I saw it I thought "now THAT looks pretty damn good". Really like that colour.

Reserve judgment on the necks. But I think they'd better have ordered a goodly number of both, since they'll be selling a lot methinks. Two probable winners here.

Prefer the home shirt, hopefully they will be made from the Kooga Australia material, instead of the material the past few shirts have been made from.

i like both of your shirts! very original and smart!

Re: 2011 Jersey : Wed Nov 17, 2010 12:46 am  

I will be buying both. Not too sure I like them yet though !

Re: 2011 Jersey : Wed Nov 17, 2010 8:01 am  

Both awful! Home one looks tacky and lop-sided and the away one is a horrible colour!!!

Whats wrong with having a traditional style shirt? either RAB hoops or v?

Looks like i'll be buying some sort of polo-shirt this time...

Re: 2011 Jersey : Wed Nov 17, 2010 8:11 am  

I like both those.

Re: 2011 Jersey : Wed Nov 17, 2010 8:13 am  

I like them both. Noth 100% sure about assymetric design on home but these things tend to be growers. Probably buying both seeing as we saved so much on season tickets compared to last year.

I agree completely re the home one.

1. It looks like it's been 'inspired' by that England RU shirt of a couple of years back. Or at best by a horses tail.
2. This was an opportunity to sell more shirts this year with the increased footfall - not the time for a marmite type effort.
3. Why are we fighting the traditional piece when it's what the fans want? I'm being a bit presumptuous on this but generally I get the impression that people would rather a V or hoops. Saints, Wigan, Hull, etc manage it every year while keeping things fresh, why can't we? Save the alternative efforts for the away shirt.

First wrong step by the club in the off season for me.
