    I have high hopes for our 3rd shirt.

    Good presentation by Paul Elliott. He likes the yellow kit, wore a yellow shirt in his first game for us. 

    I'm guessing the museum doesn't have an iron.
    You must be joking.

    We're not going to let an iron anywhere near a shirt worth £2k - £3k
    worth £4k - £5k ironed >:)

    I thought we were playing Wigan. Surely their home kit doesn't clash with our home kit!

    Very nice. Well done Castore 
  • If we do well this season it’s a great kit, if we don’t it’s a crap one simple as

    So it’s not being made in a sweatshop in the far east.

    Knowing Castore, it's probably not being made at all

    As is the norm this time of year I canvassed the opinion of my 9yr old boy on both kits.

    Home - "boring, same as always" (not sure what he wants us to do here?).

    Away - a thumbs up and big smile (no quote as he was playing Fortnite or something at the time so really didn't want me distracting him)

    Said I'd pick him one up next April/May like usual ha!

    I like both, but the away is my fave

  • Need to be seeing that in person…tiz a bit on the bright side & for me I’d rather it have the round collar,BUT it does look ok…didn’t like look of the home shirt either till I saw it,then got one…👍

    Not a fan. Isn't it basically a rip off of Arsenal 2022?

    Assume our friends at Castore haven't supplied the shorts or socks yet as there are no pictures of them.

    The inclusion of the Greenwich skyline is a great idea, but very hard to actually distinguish it by looking at it.

    Lovely kit….so much better than black

    what colour are the shorts and socks?

    Haven’t seen it in person so only going on the photos but can’t see it at all

    Black shorts.

    No one's bothered photographing the socks but we can confirm they are 'lemon verbena and caviar'

    you do get a tiny glimpse of the socks in the video at the cafe, yellow with a black sword on the shin, not sure about the turnover 
  • Personally would always like to see the reverse of the home kit, white shirts, red shorts, white socks as the away kit. Could then always flip to all red or all white.
    That said I think this season's shirts are fine, nothing fussy or over the top.

    That seems to be the way of modern shirt design, take a standard template shirt and come up with some puff about incorporating the skyline of Greenwich or Leicester or Accrington in the print  ;)

    Thats really the only way you can justify a third kit imo, 

    three kits a year changing every year takes the absolute piss (that’s not a Charlton moan just a football in general moan)

    Yes, it is. 

    Apart from the colour.

    And the shape of the collar. And the double stripe on the collar and sleeves. And the sponsor's logo, manufacturer's logo and club badge. 
    Yeah, but except for those things, it's nearly identical.

    Much prefer the version with the Greenwich logo
  • Decent away kit this season 🟡⚫️ But I still want to see us wearing the 🔴 more often -  I hate it when we don’t even when there isn’t a colour clash
    The problem is, we have different sponsor on the away shirt to the home. So there will be something contractually in place so that University of Greenwich get a guaranteed amount of exposure per season, which is why we wear the away kit often when there is no clash (e.g. at Wigan tomorrow)

    Yes, same as last year - RSK on the men's home and UoG on the away, and the other way around for the women

    Based on the Royal Observatory, I'm expecting a midnight navy kit

    No doubt these will be recurring comments throughout the season.
