Interesting, happy enough it’s not some gambling company!

The shirt design looks interesting, some sort of pattern/text? The blue looks slightly darker too?

I do wonder what the kit will be like this year, I was hoping the pinstripes were gone and I’d say that seems the case. I think the league one promotion kit was the best of the last five years - the one with the stand graphic.

I’m still rocking the first Ed Sheeran league one kit

Seen a rumour kit design circulating on social media, looks retro, blue top + sleeves with pattern in it, white v neck, white sleeve ends with red stripe.

I really don't get all this shirt design thing.
It's not as if wearing the nattiest design is going to make us play any better.
Plain royal blue shirt, white shorts, royal blue socks.

The Club is excited to announce Halo as the new front-of-shirt sponsor.
The agreement, which runs for the next three years, is the biggest in the club’s history and will see Halo sponsor both the men’s and women’s first-team shirts.

Someone said it resembled Glasgow Rangers shirt in the 1980's. But reading people comments it is possible the design has an angled stripe across the shirt. Doesn't the Halo logo sit at an angle? Also one of the shirts ( away ir 3rd) may well be purple.

I think Halo will be straight but the pattern will be at an angle, the image above is AI I think, but it might be along those lines.

Not sure on PURPLE for 3rd kit :shock:

There is always a bit of a “could have told you so” outlook on here…….. So let’s combine that with some HALO James. Keeping the thread Police at bay! :D

This was plastered over one of the stands last season. (Sure it wasn't there when in Championship / League One). You could see it every home game, (see below) ,Could never understand what it all meant. Guess things are a bit clearer now but it didn't seem to help the team what with one home victory through an entire campaign. Could be a curse or something, hell knows how it'll effect us now what with players featuring it on a team strip.

Some don't care about what sponsor we got. The idea is to go out and win games and provide enough points over a season to provide an opportunity without need to advertise but in truth it seems an improvement from the Sheeran kid design we used before.

Yes, it was there in the championship AP....they've been sponsoring Town for 2 yrs now, but now they've gone full monty and become the primary sponsor. They're a local firm but are worth absolute £m's

Don't know what everyone has against the Ed Sheeran design, I really liked it and the logo. Got people wondering. Just ordered a pink 3rd shirt from last season too. Really like this one and I guess we won't be seeing ES logo on our chests again now.

Not really an ES fan TBH but just liked the shirts last year. Best for many years for me.

Yeah I really like the logo, its different and less in your face than some.

Also love the pink kit, shame its never been discounted. Even though I can afford it I still cant see the value in spending alot on something I'll wear 5-6 times a year (as I'm not one to wear a shirt as casual clothing outside of a match). If I was a ST holder its different as your getting at least weekly use from it :)
