Green shirt, black shorts, white socks. Beautiful.
Is there a rule that says keepers' kits must be monochrome? I'm old school (I was there in 67) but I liked the old days when goalies wore green. Black shorts add a touch of class. Make it permanent please.
I also liked it when teams ran out separately. None of this walking out together, handshake of peace nonsense. |  | | |  |

Just said something similar to my nipper and showed him the highlights to try and illustrate the point- about Smithies' kit that is. |  | | |

The way he's playing, I'd be just as happy if Smithies played in a corset, rubber gloves, a gas mask and flippers. |  | | |

Dare I say it but I thought the all white kit looked pretty damned good. |  |

Knowing Smithies I doubt that that would even affect his capabilities.
Agree with the op though. It was good to see the old school keepers colours.

Why wasn't he wearing white shorts, then?
Genuine old school was just the green top different.
But don't pay any attention to me: I don't know 1) why we need a third kit, 2) why we wear it more than the 'away' kit and 3) why it looks so fcking awful. [Post edited 6 Mar 2017 5:29]

You sound like a guy who doesn't give kids their ball back and thinks the new 5p is too fiddly...
 |
It's not my fault they're too scared to ask for it!
Nah, I just hate a kit the colour of bloody diarrhea with the sweet corn kernels arranged in rows. | |

If we were to have a final season at Loftus Road, would anyone be averse to playing out the last season in a modern version of original kit the Club used when they moved there?
I'm thinking 1917 -
Or the second spell from 1933 - Black socks would be an intresting touch.
Would be quite cocky don't you think?
Going to give my Ebay account the heads up... |  | | |

Loved the keeper's kit. But he should also have been wearing a flat cap. |  | | |

Was thinking about this last night (that's what a sad bast*rd I am). Blue and white hoops at home, red and black away and then piss around with a third kit if you want but it's mad we've only worn our away kit about once or twice all season | |

Blue/White and Red/Black should be mandatory for us. If anything because they are such contrasting kits.
I remember that weird dark blue away shirt we had in the 90s. What was the point of that.
We're dumb at kits |  |

I think whoever comes up with the kits each year is quite clever, if a little crafty. They contrive to avoid the simple blue/white red/black options and come up with a third kit purely for sales of replica kit. |  | | |

This is true, red and black hoops all day long, black or red shorts depending on a potential clash of shorts and black socks - job done.
The home and kits should also have blue shorts ready for a potential clash in shorts for someone like, Nottingham Forest away. | | | |

Actually look at that for a second. Really look at it. It's West Ham on acid ffs, dreadful stuff. | |

It's dog poo. As bad as the Orange or the Red and White checks.
What is wrong with the Celtic copy as a 3rd kit?
Or the Raiders Silver and Black we had?
No more puke colours please!

In the queue outside the shop on Saturday Francis said he'd more or less designed this season's kit, Dryworld tweaked it a little and then handed it onto another company to manufacture (then went bust!). It was this third company that made the commemorative shirts.
Given we moved into Loftus Rd (the 1st time) in 1917/18 I think we should use green and white hoops as our away kit for 2017/18. With white shorts and black socks - like we had 100 years ago. Goalkeeper wearing green at home and red away (black shorts for both). Blue and white at home obviously. No need for a third kit, it's never used. | | | |
