I love reading its too much like a Juventus strip. Juventus are black and white ffs. They've had some belting strips in comparison to us. OK sometimes you'd make a case it's more white and black but the same applies to nufc. It's utter nonsense. You're right about our super market sweep strips. This looks more like a big clubs strip to me.
I hope it is... At this point the people that don't like it will find reasons to believe it's fake and they might be right, but the source is fairly reliable. The tartan one is vile.. Gulp
Geordies lined up and bought a kit which had a misprinted logo. Our fans will buy anything NUFC related man, the kit will sell.
They would complain it had a white panel if all the stripes were solid black and they'd complain the collar was too black if it wasn't too white. Once it's released they'll all say it's nice and buy it.
Still not convinced on it tbh but the back looks alright with the name and number, quite like it but still unsure on the front - can't put my finger on it from the pictures but it looks thinner on the top and balloons out like a dress at the bottom. Need to see it being worn tbh.
The back is half the strip and I think this increases the significance of the improvement way more than people who's focus is one dimensional think. You're starting to like it mate, I can tell.
