Premier league rule. Back of striped shirts solid colour?

[James]

That can't be the proper design ffs.

 

[one footed wonder]

Dropped a right bollock haven’t they, that looks f***ing awful

 

[mackemdr]

This bollocks

Look at the Brentford kit last season

 

[Mackemansj1]

I’d hope not someone has dropped a major bollock here. Think Hummel have designed it thinking we’re in the championship and now instead of altering the design because of the rule in the premier league they’ve just stuck a white panel on the back. Making it looks like absolute shite and now thousands of fans don’t have the “real” home kit.

This bollocks

Supposedly a new rule this season.

 

[MackneyHackem]

Supposedly a new rule this season.

Aye. The kit design will have been finalised way before we achieved promotion, but it's still a shocking oversight.

 

[Scootsie]

Who is it benefitting?

It’s literally never been an issue.

 

[CraigyLee]

I thought the prem tried this before and sacked it off pretty quick

 

[Mackemansj1]

Looking at that pic is that Xhaka in the number 8? Looks like him don’t it.

Where?

Sounds like shite

No

No, it looks like Alan Browne because it’s Alan Browne.

 

[MackneyHackem]

Where?

Sounds like shite

Where what?

It's called the Delta L rule. Plenty of stuff on Google about it. It is indeed a load of shite though.

 

[Mackemansj1]

No, it looks like Alan Browne because it’s Alan Browne.

All white people look alike

 

[MadMackem10]

Ruins the shirt big time. Have Hummel dropped a bollock here with the design thinking we’d still be in the championship?. Would’ve looked better just a solid red back and white name and number.

It’s a rule change starting this season. Prem clubs were told about it last summer, SAFC were only told about it this summer. By the point kits had already designed and made

 

[Dog in a pram]

I like it, continental or South American vibes.

They maybe should’ve looked to do something about it then. This looks horrible not to mention the thousands of kits they’ve sold to people now don’t look like the kits the players will be in. Hummel should’ve really had designed around it we were top four all season so there was a chance of promotion.

But it isn't a new rule

Its nonesense, if we have black letters and numbers its fine

 

[The Situation]

That is absolutely horrific.

Club/Hummel can’t prepare for a rule they don’t know exists. I have a feeling it likely won’t look like that all season, Hummel probably need a bit of time to get a better alternative sorted.

I believe the club have already said they will talk to fans to find out if they want plain backs/striped backs or both options in future seasons.
