Now you're all probably thinking, 'why on earth are we talking about this just now?'...However next season will be our 20th year and I believe the fans should have a say in what the new strip should be like.

The current away shirt was designed after consultation with CJT and from what I've heard the final design was submitted as early as December 2012. This could mean that the club and CJT are already or are about to talk about our new home shirt for next year. So its paramount we get our views in as early as possible!

I created this topic so fans will be able to express what they would like the new shirt to be and so CJT and the club could see the fans views.

Also FC United of Manchester present their members with 4 different shirt designs every couple of seasons. The fans then get to vote for their favourite with the winning shirt being the new home/away shirt. Would the club and CJT be prepared to do this for our special 20th year?

Now, I would normally ask for simple blue and red even and vertical stripes like the 95/96 shirt. NO fancy swooshes or diagonal stripes. NO more blue than red or vice versa, 50% blue and 50% red. However with the current red and black striped away I would be open to an all blue shirt with red/black trim like our 94/95 first strip. Also I would like to see a return to white shorts like we had between 94-97.

  • In light of revealing our new sponsor, a couple of kits I wouldn't mind seeing being made our own. Stupidly simple and in distant hope that Subway were to use their logo minus the slogan, I'de be more

The New 2014 Home Shirt junior sizes are now in stock.

Is there a way to order online and get the 10% discount that Season Ticket holders are entitled to? (or I think they are entitled to!)

You maybe have to phone the club shop they could probably advise on shirt sizes too just like they did for my 1st shirt.

Ps who can put names and numbers on the back of shirts.

Celtic shop is the only place I'm aware of that does official names and numbers.

There would appear to be a distinct lack of communication between the club and fat boys. It feels that there is a degree of sizeism taking place.

Sometimes these guys are dynamic, IHE. :wink:

 

Like...the first atomic bomb that was dropped in anger in Japan--wasn't that called  Little Fatboy or something? And he was something else when he was naked and shirtless wasn't he?

On 6th August 1945 the B-29 bomber named Enola Gay after the pilots mother dropped the A-bomb codenamed Little Boy on Hiroshima. 80,000 people lost their lives as a direct result of the blast and a further 60000 died within the year from the effects. If we dropped Doran from the same height would the impact wipe out Inverness?

Maybe just Dalneigh.  The fireman would have a hard time cleaning it all up though!

Seeing him yesterday deffo half the city would be wiped out. Can't believe how 'chunky' he's become in such a short time.

Soooo went in to the shop today to buy the hooped socks (didnt have any) and was 'awestruck' at the quality of the new shirt. Ok, maybe not quite as dramatic but to be fair the shirt aint to shabby. Didnt realise the stripes went up the back aswell which is a nice feature. I really like the collar also. Sure i would rather have had stripes but seeing it in the flesh today reminded me immediately of the 2002-04 'lucky' shirt. Lets hope this shirt also brings us much luck. I May just have to purchase one after all......but most definately getting the socks!! The socks are boss!

The socks are indeed boss :-)

Very Kingussie Shinty. Now there is an idea - O'Neill's for the next kit deal. Looking to get into football more and offer a whole range of associated merchandise that is available quickly - now that would be novel ;-)

Point taken but as the article says, Oldham have signed a 7 figure deal with them so I think the wait will be worthwhile. I doubt if we are anywhere near 7 figures (including pennies)since we started dealing with Errea!

I can't see Subway being to keen to sponsor Old ham!

I dont think there's any  comparison. Oldhams deal with Sports Direct also includes the naming of their stadium and setting up of a shop  within the stadium. The article doesn't say what the figure is nor the length of the deal.

I would like to take the time to say how impressed how fast the ICT shop/office delivered my top. I ordered late yesterday afternoon and it was in Glasgow today. Good work. I expected it to arrive tomorrow at the earliest. 

 

Now on to the shirt itself. At first view from the pictures I was a hater. I planned to give the money to the club and add it to the 'others' Now I have it in my hands I think its a touch of class. Its' different in a good way.

Spot on! This is pretty much how i feel also

As a previous long term employee of Sports Direct, this doesn't surprise me at all.

The greediest folk I think I've ever seen. As much publicity and profit for as little.. Imorally little as possible.

Shame Oldham have ventured into this. Silly decision.

I showed it to an ex Aberdeen player today and he's really impressed with the clubs continental design.

So why compare it?

Any chance of being able to get a top sans sponsor?

If goes against my believes to advertise bread.................

Or at least i reckon it'd look better without it.

Looking back at this thread and some of my comments has made me chuckle, especially this last comment.

Indeed i was less than flattered when the new shirt was unveiled but as the season has progressed it has totally grown on me. In fact my favourite shirt of all time is the 96-97 home shirt, and this current shirt comes in a close second! I absolutely love it.

And funnily enough it has also proved to have given us luck like the 02-04 kit.

As for the socks........Still BOSS! Infact is it possible that we keep the blue/red hooped socks as a tradition from now on?
