    I dislike it 1% less than I did earlier. Progress.

    The more I see it, the more I think rugby league.

    New Mainz kits. Would have taken all three.

    Or Twente's. Nike are capable of getting it right…

    Two years in a row we've had the same designs as Dundee Utd.

  • I think it's a nice shirt - not for us as it shouldn't really have white sleeves. Having said that I could live with it. Hopefully they will change the Logo on the front, even if they don't add the logo, the university'd own font would look better.

    I'm not as against the other two logos either. I don't, personally, like Andrews but the logo is a lot less offensive where it is and Mitsubishi is the kind of company that I would like us to be sponsored by as it's a known brand.

    Overall, apart from the Arsenal sleeves, I think it's ok.

    We don't wear red shorts. I can't understand how they could have got that wrong. I can't see any commercial benefit to it either - I mean I don't think people are going to go out and buy red shorts when they wouldn't have bought white or black (or what ever the away colour would be).

    I really like the socks though. I think I will buy a pair for my Dad. In the 70s he had a pair of socks like them which he called his lucky football socks. they were rotten by then - he'd probably had them for 20 years by that point. Back in the days when I used to play FIFA and we could change the kits I always used to give us hooped socks.

    I guess our kits will always look Sunday League-like whilst we haveNikeSunday League players in them
    Just wanted to correct that for you!

    Adidas have created a retro shirt for Flamengo. Would have been cool to do something like this.

    No more pictures of football shirts from me I promise!

    I'm so glad I came on here, I actually liked it before but who do I think I am being a positive Charlton fan?

    Guy in the middle of the Mainz photo looks like he is letting out a sneaky fart and has followed through.

    Incidentally the bog standard logo will be in order to maximise standout on TV. Making the font as simple and legible as possible.

    What makes the kit rugby league? I ask not because I disagree, but because I don't know much about rugby and since I'm from a country with very little rugby

    Strangely I dont think the 2 extra sponsors looks clutteredas I feared but that might change if it had a name and number on the back.

    Obviously too much white on shirt, too much red on shorts.

    Socks are good though.

    Can't believe I still look at this site. Although I kind of knew what I would be letting myself in for. Get a bloody life it's a progressive different kit! For the last 3 new kits have been basically the same boring design! At least this one has a bit of difference about it!

    It's just that a lot of rugby league clubs use that V-shape design. St Helens have used it for years,

    Its not very "Charlton" but overall I don't think its terrible. It looks quite smart with the red shorts.
    I'll wait and see what the away and third kits look like though.

    Absolutely fucking horrible. Red shorts, hoopy socks and a Middlesbrough top. I want a ST refund. Disgrace!!!!!

    Maybe we're getting a regular slot on Belgian TV.....

    RD is rapidly making us a laughing stock. Go now please and take your loans/Liege signings/Piss poor Pete with you:(

    It would have made more sense if the top part of the shirt was red and the bulk of the shirt was white like the one from the mid-1960s.

    Reminds me of this.....minus the tidy bird.
  • I've just read the text from the email the club send out. It would seem that we are going to get brand new away and third strips too.

    I make that 7 new kits in three seasons (or just over two years).

    Plus the GK kits. Any ideas on what colour of the away and third will be?

    Don't really think RD sat down and choose the kit. I'm happy to be corrected but I don't think we can lay this at his door.

    Its not very 'Charlton', but then again no one working at the club anymore is 'Charlton' so we should not be surprised.

    I'm sure some will like it. I could probably guess which ones...

    That is because a football kit is a massive part of the identity of the football club. Charlton Athletic play in plain red shirts, and the last 30 new kits have been basically the same CLASSIC design. It's not a fashion statement, go down the high street and buy a shirt in a fashion retail outlet if you want to express your personality in what you wear. And don't be rude about old people like me either... ;-)
