Re: Away Kit

It's not great but collars on a football shirt is a must.

Re: Away Kit

What utter marketing drivel “ the grey is a nod to the mining history of Rhondda - have a black kit then . What’s green got to do with it ? Is it a nod to the film How Green was My Valley? Awful colour, terrible collar and a hideous badge with the bloody worm on it again !

Exactly. Charcoal is not coal. Coal is coal. It's shiny, and black as.... uh.... coal?

No.

Collars are for polo shirts , casual wear.

Re: Away Kit

All the opportunities with the 125 year to go off the wall

Ended up with a McDonald’s uniform.

Would have loved to go for a riverside kit

Good description....Why for once could not those responsible at the club be aware and co-coalesce to what the fans wanted to see....chocolate and amber....

Re: Away Kit

Why don’t they listen to the fans (or customers in the case). Riverside or Black/Yellow would have sold, this is just a dull grey polo. Not much of a celebration. Missed opportunity to sell something that people would want.

Just been to the club shop and a few observations

Blue kit is fine
Away kit looks better in the flesh but is still pretty awful, looks like casual wear and has the worm
Went to buy a mug with 125 on it and turned it round and it had the worm badge on it so put it back
A few casual items without the worm and a few retro kits but most with the worm

I know it is pathetic but I can't find it in myself to buy anything with the worm on it and I said so when they surveyed us a few months back

Like you I think they have missed a huge income opportunity this year and not sure why they think they know better - they seem to take one step forward and god knows how many back - it's bizarre

Lots of younger people with parents in there which was good and maybe the worm doesn't bother them I don't know

Oh and haven't driven in Cardiff for about 6 months - wow the 20mph is a killer trying to get around some of the main roads 😱

Just come from there , bought the training gear for my son and a beach towel for holidays in Greece , loads of way kits were being bought. I don’t buy football kits but my son will be having all three.

The away kit is nice up close and the colours are based on pick ( for coal ) and shovel for (grass )

But the pick and the shovel are both for coal.

Could be , but the green must be for the land the coal is under.

Fair play.

Re: Away Kit

Should have been brown (chocolate) and yellow (amber) symbolising chicken curry and chips from Dorothy’s.

Fair play.

That’s what my missus thinks anyway … and what someone told me in the club shop :hehe:

She hates it

Re: Away Kit

5xl & 31” long, made for square people?

I’m 6’3”, any shirt shorter than 35” is a waste of time / money. Why 31”
