Good marketing though - they have the High-vis version available for the council and workers ....

Or, showing solidarity with Ukraine

Good or bad , put it on a successful team and it will certainly shift more units.

A very good question. Maybe the same ones they consulted about the naff design.

At least we only need to wait 12 months a new strip will be released.............

Can I ask why all the complaints regarding the words of the song, its only a minor error ?

Which, with a little care taken, could easily have been avoided.

As these are images of what the strip will look like, presumably the actual stock delivered can be correct?

Has anyone pointed it out to the club?

We have had a lot better looking home shirt.

I love it! 

Maybe I'm just a glass half full, happy clappy type, but it's a wee bit different and I love the personalisation of the song (and my eyesight is not good enough to have spotted the error yet).

You are never going to please all the people, so here's hoping it brings with it good fortune for the team next season, then it will be job done.

(If they do manage to alter the text, perhaps the prototypes will become much sought after collectors items, and we'll all want one).

C'mon Boys, let's see if we can be sporting it in the top tier next season.

Because its not correct? It's a song with 4 lines so not exactly hard to get right? 

If you watch the teaser graphic they put out you can clearly hear and see the words don't match!!!

I think they will do what they normally do tbh. Batten down the hatches and wing it by pretending they don't know? Which they do I'm told

Clearly, someone was educated at the same time that I was, in the 60s to mid-70s.  It was hammered into us that we should never use any form of the verb "get".  If one found oneself about to do so, then one should seek an alternative.  "Nice" was another word which we also had to avoid.

(Written in my bestest English, as they learned us.)

Am I permitted to use the word 'Nice' to describe my favourite biscuit?

As long as you pronounce it "neece".   It is not the same word 

Wikipedia: "1929 editions of the Hull Daily Mail carried an advertisement for Huntley & Palmers Nice Biscuits using the phrase "Delightful as the town after which they are named", indicating that by this point their manufacturers intended the public to associate the biscuit with the French city, whether or not that had been the intended pronunciation."

Lucky Charles Bannerman doesn't post on here now he would be sorting you all out

Absolutely not 

[Eagle4Caley]

Wasn't too sure when I first saw it, the overall effect would be the greater if the stripes continued onto the shorts.....but I think it's a great shirt for casual wear

[+Gringo]

I quite like it....maybe because it looks like a training top but still has the crappy badge on it. Anyway, at £48 (allegedly) it'll stay on it's hanger in the shop.

[SMEE]

What is the issue with the "crappy badge"? Does it peel off easy or something?
