Remove the "Player Safety First" part of the sponsor so they can make it a little smaller and you could be half way there. Its that daft little white bit beneath the collar that baffles me. Get on it Newy lad.....

this is why the club should be some decent thought into a shirt....instead of the abomination they have produced
Football shirts: 'People put such value on these bits of polyester'
Football shirt-collecting is booming. Why do some people seem to love the tops as much as the game?

I think they might need the tag line for some gambling responsibly law.. they don't need the anal bead logo tho.. utterly pointless!
PROPER JOB

The geordie y-front collar?
Best way to get the kids on board?
Put an old chimney sweet in a red geordie kit!

Trying to match up to the very popular fake shirts from last season (you couldn’t buy real ones)

I wonder what the the clubs reaction is to the wholly negative reception to a hugely underwhelming kit.
Probably "fck 'em"

Depends who signed it off!
I mean if that’s the one they went for.. what did the ones that they turned down look like?!?
Typical boro move tho opting for a shirt that would have been popular 27 years ago!

There’ll be a notable difference in shirt sales.

Well if that happens then I guess they’ll sit up and take notice.
I doubt they care about a load of miserable people moaning about it on a message board or on Twitter.

I'm guessing they are scared to announce the away kit. Probably hired someone rapidly designing a new one 
The kit is 'meh'. I just wear my old ones anyhow so moaning for moaning sake. The main issue is the sponsor. I think we can nearly all agree on that. The white band actually amplifies the worst part of the shirt.
I'll stick to my old ones. Although I was a bit of a porker back in the day so most are massive on me.

Good kits get a good reaction and sell well.
It not something that is hard to do either, I can’t believe how often they get it wrong!
Adidas must have charged more for the stock than Hummel and Errea.
Hummel couldn’t don’t fulfil the orders, the Errea home one looks like a maximising profits deel.
Back to basics, no special details.
It would be interesting to get hold of the base prices and how many they sell.
I would guess the adidas ones we about £20 a piece and the decent kits will have sold 40k
£1.2m - the probably break even with the left over gear. Get the feeling that the outlay is a bigger hit and advertising costs are probably heavy too. £800k profit?
Hummel costing about £15 a pop with the special detail selling about 30k
£1m - more bespoke, higher profit, massive lead times. Loses through loss of sales £500k profit (last year)
Errea about £5 a pop pretty much stock items selling around 20k
£900k profit? Lower outlay, lower advertising, lower sales but higher profits.
Still could have done a decent shirt!!

IMO the best kit we've had in the last 5 years is the Hummel one Erimus helped get remade.
