JedMaxwell If there really is a Huntley and Palmers connection to the shirt, I think there's an opportunity to do a special edition biscuit tie-in. I'd buy some.


TBF, they did a nice one for the 150th anniversary.

Indeed they did. My dad has that tin in his home office, full of absolute shit he doesn't need.

H&P are now an online only brand, no clue where they’re actually based now though hopefully still somewhere in the Reading area.

Only clue on the website is a contact phone number with area code 01922 which is Walsall…..
Wikipedia suggests the company using the name is based in Sudbury, Suffolk.
Given they do lean quite heavily on the Reading connection you’d think some kind of tie in with the club would be a decent idea.

So what's happened here? Was expecting the H&P themed kit to be revealed by now. Last minute revisions ordered by the new owners or just usual Reading revealing it late?

The latter although do they really reveal it that late? It's a long off season so always seems to me they like to time big announcements. My guess is they will launch it towards the end of this month, particularly when it's coinciding with payday.

Although going back in time, 40 years since the 13 consecutive wins to start the season. If Birmingham can get this, surely there's a market for RFC to have a home version???

(apart from it being Birmingham) that’s really a thing of beauty.

Loved my ‘patrick’ top and was the first ‘replica’ top that I ever bought, stupidly gave it away to a mates sister in the mid nineties (not that it'd fit now)

Have the replicas of the replicas that were released a few years back…..but they’re not the same material.
