T'was genuine Mr Wembley of 2008.

Although, you did well to decipher my post. The old predective text messed up a word or two!

So you are taking the mick then!! i get it.....

FWIW You'll notice that the FC Wembley 2008 relates to the exact time i registered on this forum... not when i started supporting Hull FC, thanks for your interest though!!

Why don't you get on topic and discuss the shirts??

I am not a better fan of this club than anyone else and don't claim to be!!

All i'm saying is, i buy my pass, away tickets, various other items, both shirts and wear them with pride win or lose!! This is no different to anyone else. If somebody pays on the gate just once a year then they contribute to our great club and they are a fan and therefor entitled to an opinion.. But there's a time and a place to do it!! My main point being that, some fans may not renew or go to games this year because season pass prices will increase, they don't like the shirts and/or don't think we'll win anything... Well i will, cos i want to be there for that special moment if/when it does happen, those glorious feeling that you just don't get when you watch it back!!

I'm proud of where my club is but still strive for improvements. Why abuse other fans for this reason??

Good Post! Well said!

Indeed.
I think that is something most clubs have realised ( the reason we wore a red shirt in out first SL year).
The years of you only needing 1 shirt for 10 years due to it never changing are long gone.
TBH I have seen worse FC shirts and you are back to your hoops.
I will say blue and gold why does that sound familiar :wink:

They were the colours on the club crest as far back as the 1880s.

What would your choice of designs be like?

Well, this seasons away shirt could have been the reverse of last seasons, mainly black with white irregular hoops on the chest and arms. How difficult was it for them to design the new home shirt with hoops that go all the way around?

Not half as easily as your posts.

Don't like the away shirt. Will reserve judgement on the home until I have seen it in the flesh.

Re: New Shirt : Sun Oct 03, 2010 8:25 pm  

I'd just like to apologise to Digby for my comments. I misinterpreted his comments. This has now been cleared up via PM..
Just wanted to point this out.

We are all virtual rlfans friends again

Re: New Shirt : Sun Oct 03, 2010 8:29 pm  

the new away shirt has very similar colours to the North Queensland Cowboys

i will be buying the away shirt this season as i alternate between home and away every season

both designs are quite good, a lot better than most superleague teams come up with
