clifford Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Do you think the new kit will be released before Christmas like other clubs, even league one clubs have this organised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roughyed34 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I asked Santa for a Magic Unicorn, "Impossible" he said "Be realistic!", so I asked for an Oldham RLFC shirt to be available before Christmas. He said "What colour Unicorn do you want?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitworth Yed Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Why would a club short of money want to waste their time by bringing out the shirt before Christmas? Christmas parties don't organise themselves people! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Naylor Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 The crest on the shirt is a hybrid of the Trumpton Shield and the Town Crest. We've got different shades of red going on that doesn't work to my eyes. Anyway, the Trumpton Shield falls at the first hurdle. Supposed to be a new branding for the club but found wanting on social media and now doesn't appear on the 2020 shirt. A failed exercise. Get it binned. Having said that, the shirt's great, just the ticket. I'd have had more donkeys on though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Naylor Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I don't know, there's a bulletin that comes out from the RFL in the week leading up to games and it stipulates there which strip we'll be playing in. I don't know whether that's an instruction or it's Oldham's decision. I also suspect that since we have to have two strips, since they take a battering, we may as well get best use out of both sets. I'd prefer red/white hoops at home, blue/white hopes when away if there was a clash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Art of Hand and Foot Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 The main reason for a different away shirt is commercial. As well as selling 2 shirts. Some clubs have different sponsors for home and away, so it helps to differentiate the sponsors in the minds of the public. We've had different shirts for years. Remember the red home and blue away boddingtons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford Posted December 4, 2019 Author Share Posted December 4, 2019 On the whole the shirt is good, but I would like the blue sponsors name in the red hoop and the r wholly in the red hoop but I think that they were trying to marry up with the crest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford Posted December 4, 2019 Author Share Posted December 4, 2019 Dave, do you know if the sponsors name will go in the red hoop to make more pleasing on the eye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
