davieG Posted 7 July 2006 Share Posted 7 July 2006 A lot has been said about the new kit, but the goalie's shirt seems to have passed with very little comment. I have real cocerns about it, not only does it seem wholly unappealing but will our players be able to see where the goalie is and will refs be able to spot him being impeded/fouled?

Parsons Posted 7 July 2006 Share Posted 7 July 2006 i think its ugly, being a goalkeeper aswell the quality of the last one was shocking i wont be buying it, JJB have been utter bollocks so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lookwhaticando Posted 7 July 2006 Share Posted 7 July 2006 Rab will look like the Incredible Hulk :laugh: I thought last years looked quite good - I was considering getting one later in the season, but the price never went down so I didn't bother (yes, I'm cheap. ) Now it's this year's away kit. Coincidentally, I can't recall last years British Rail Luminous Orange away keeper kit ever being used Bit pointless having an 'away' keeper kit if it doesn't get used As for this years, it's a bit plain. It's nothing special to look at, but it's not completely hideous. It needs something to break up the vast expanse of green tho - lines or something. Get one of the keepers to lay flat on the floor, and people will think there's something wrong with the pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him being catholic and orange being a Protestant colour or something weird like that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him being catholic and orange being a Protestant colour or something weird like that.. true story. i saw him at freemans park morrisons and asked him if it was true he said he refuses to wear orange due to religion.

macbeth Posted 8 July 2006 Share Posted 8 July 2006 was it compulsory at one time ( pre 1960s ) for all goalies to wear green and internationals yellow........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcfcalan Posted 8 July 2006 Share Posted 8 July 2006 was it compulsory at one time ( pre 1960s ) for all goalies to wear green and internationals yellow........ Good point that, I remember shouting to Peter Shilton way back when, 'that yellow jumper will be all yours soon Peter !' (circa 1971/2) and behold, it became so. !! but yes , that was my understanding at the time . Yellow for international duty, green for League duty.

Sophie Posted 10 July 2006 Share Posted 10 July 2006 i agree i dont think this seasons kit is very appealing, jjb are a bit of a let down in my opinion, maybe wont look to bad when its on but i dont think that the goalie's top is very nice.
