If you're a grown adult worrying about kit releases then you might need to seek some sort of help. It will be here when it is here.

I must admit I do have a general interest in kits so I always look forward to what we get, especially as Macron took over and started producing bespoke kits instead of just Puma templates.

I never buy replicas now as I am too old but I like to see the new kits every year, same goes for boots and other gear.

On the other hand, I'm not really bothered when it's released and we always do it late in the summer.

No issue with kit discussion in general it is the complaining about the release date that winds me up each season. We release kits late, have done for a while yet it seems to shock people.

Yeah I don't get the idea of getting wound up about the release being late except for a few specific examples like wanting to get it for a kid's birthday or something like that.

Always delay the kit release. No need to get wound up about it every year.


Wound up? It's just we're consistently late with our releases is all.

Because we consistently sell fewer shirts than other clubs. The more you sell, the higher up the list of production runs you go.

It's the club that dictates the release date. You pay for production and release in tiers, and we opt for the cheapest tier to save pennies.

We're not late, we release it at roughly the same time each year. I don't know why people would expect it to be any different this year?

There's a rumour of a potential 3rd kit this year, and it may be black.

We've had some lovely black kits in the past, with what looks like pale blue training kit, something like this would be a winner.

Shame, though I guess their brand name wasn't really cut out for the age of twitter.
