'Contributed massively' yeah they certainly did by putting us in this position to begin with!

Talk about rewriting history, massive support from IOR, yeah selling our main striker at last minute of transfer window then reinvesting the bare minimum on loans. The great escape was done in spite of IOR not because of them.

Modelled on Barcelona's away strip, so maybe some truth in those Messi rumours.

Was thinking 'great 'an ior company' removed from logo' and then saw that monstrosity underneath it which looks
Like it has been pritt sticked on.

Well I think it's smart, might even buy it if the sponsors logo doesn't look shit and I haven't bought a shirt in about 10 yrs

Looks like something from a rave and that article knocked me sick aswell

Cringe!

Are IOR serious? Is this one last laugh at the fans before they go? If anyone wears that (other than the players who are paid to wear it) they should probably do it somewhere they wont be seen.

Disgusting shirt and a disgusting article to match!

No one does shi*e kits like HUFC. Another cheap and nasty effort, on closer inspection the stitching of the motif is appalling.The cheek of it anarl. Proceeds towards the fookin youth team. We should have a youth team like Barcelona the money that has been raised for them over the years. Me thinks most of the money never gets anywhere near the youth team. IOR cashing in on failure at lightning speed, Ronnie Moore talk in ( at the ground of course, probably not allowed by Ken to speak at your local pub) limited edition strip, sponsor a piece of the pitch I am all for the club making money, but for godsake let it be dignified not embarrassing.

Dead right. I've been missing all those 8-0 away wins.

Least they're not gonna have trouble seeing each other. Might be able to get away with wearing it on site!

I really like it. Last time we had a yellow kit we got promoted from league 2 -same again next season!!

Don't subs have to wear bibs so they don't clash with the players on the pitch?

Will the stewards now be wearing bibs?

This is the choice of kit designs that they have for next season, not much to choose from for a home kit..

Was copied from one of the Escape Goat's old outfits. The whole thing is a sly tribute to The Bunker from Ken n Russ.

I quite like the one that looks like a Rugby League shirt. If it makes us harder, we should go for it.

poolieinnottingham · **Posted:** Sun May 03, 2015 3:15 pm

If we're going to stray from blue/white stripes then I reckon we should go for the white shirt with a blue diagonal stripe, and get sponsored by Regal King Size.

Moan moan moan. Really this board is getting so predictable and depressing.

For what its worth I thought it looked class - but then of course I would wouldn't I!

Chrissy Stevo · **Posted:** Sun May 03, 2015 3:21 pm

To be honest when I seen it online it thought it looked horrific, having seen it on the highlights I actually liked it a lot more but won't be buying one.

It's a marginal improvement on the pink one. I wish they would bring back the yellow Brazil one, my favourite away shirt of all time.

Montpoolier · **Posted:** Sun May 03, 2015 3:37 pm

It would look a hell of a lot better without the fablon IOR sign.

The fans requested the IOR logo
INVEST OR RESIGN
Unfortunately they wont be doing either!
But thats ok for many of our fans who are happy with the way they run our club. banghead

loan_star · **Posted:** Sun May 03, 2015 5:57 pm

I can see a steward being flagged offside! Sheff Utd had to change their away kit a few years ago because it clashed with the hi-viz used by stewards and police.

Cant beat the multi-coloured brian hornes goalkeeper top.
Strongarm on the front with THE TOWNS CLUB logo below the ships wheel.

New strips came in handy yesterday, kept players safe on verge of A66.
Plus will come in handy if we get a midweek game at Newport next season (pointless turning on their floodlights). Joking aside, seen a lot worse over the years.

yloop · **Posted:** Sun May 03, 2015 11:14 pm

White home, yellow away.

Don't mind the day glow yellow to be honest.

anything that replaces that fucking pink monstrosity has my backing. Even though the words underneath should have said, IOR apologise for this shite season and forcing grown men to wear fucking pink as well.

northumberland · **Posted:** Tue May 05, 2015 4:37 pm

Anything but basic blue & white stripes for home strip as we seem to have had for the last 10 years or more.

Any from

would all be good for a change and I think would sell very well.

A better idea would be to give the fans a choice assuming Pools do actually have a choice themselves and aren't just "allocated" something by Nike.

I'd go for your first one.

born toulouse · **Posted:** Tue May 05, 2015 5:01 pm

Last one would be OK with white shorts. Any shirt with an angled stripe makes players look like primary school kids who are being made to wear a sash to show which rounders team they are on.

I like it, but the anything is better than that pinky gaylord shirt! bbolt

I'd guess at this one, basically a blue & white version of the pink kit. I think it would look amazing.

Regarding the shirt at Carlisle, the word 'opportunist' comes to mind.
The history of the season is being re-written.

It sure is. But that doesnt stop quite a few believing it.

I didn't mind the away strip from the first season of colin coopers, red with a white stripe thought that was a good one.
