    We did, we just grumbled about stuff with our families and friend groups. There was no mass communication method which enabled people in Indonesia to be offended by the football kit of a club in West Yorkshire.

    Of course there is. Take away the hype, the build up, the fact it has been marketed as retro when it isn't, it's actually not a bad shirt, and I'd bet my house that if would have been much more warmly received if it had had zero publicity.
    It's a shame because a lot of work has clearly gone into the launch video and I liked the concept of it and thought other than the way it was drawn out, it was done well. It's the product that let the concept down. Which I guess is very much, a bantams thing.

    Have I?? I believe this was only the second post I’ve made about it on the whole thread. That’s hardly talking about it all week. Get your facts right lad

    And you are wrong about the bad publicity thing. There certainly is

    Remember Don Hutchins modelling this shirt in the 70s
    Can we not move forward and come up with a better design than this
    No doubt the home shirt will be the 1911 one

    yeh, a simple post - this is our new away shirt blah blah would have been fine. Alternatively, the campaign they did with an actual retro kit - as this one clearly isn't. It has zero retro qualities. Its got people talking, but its mainly negative.

    I think the shirt is fine, it's not nice enough for me to want to buy one, but it's not terrible either. It's just not very exciting.

    As Petrov says without all the nonsense that preceded the launch it would have had a much better reception. I think the issue stems from our recent history, we are fed so much guff the majority struggle to be excited/optimistic. If this was on the back of a promotion and we were in league one no one would have batted an eyelid. As a fanbase, we want, and need a tiny bit of success for a change.

    They should have done the launch video for that top instead of the 'meh' shirt.

    Looks like the new away shirt is a bit marmite. I like it, but then again I like the 70s.

    Work colleague today said the home kit is like Motherwell kit from last year he’s married to someone linked loosely to the club
