Will the Ram Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 The £5 increase from last season is a bit disappointing but I thought it would be the case. I’m glad that the replica shirts won’t have a sponsor though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerbyRevolution Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Just been in to look at the kits, for me this is an area that needs improving on. Whilst each kit is nice enough, there’s no thought process behind them imo. The home kit, the 3 items, 2 are all black. The away kit, 3 items, 2 are all black and one is dark green. Out of the 3 kits none of the socks are light coloured/white. The away kit, with the home how it is, should be a direct opposite so a dark top, light shorts and light socks. The 3rd kit should be something quirky or one to split the opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoxoram Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I am looking forward to seeing them in the club shop tomorrow. That will be the litmus test for me. It's not always easy to decide how good (or bad) they look online. However, just to slightly disagree with myself, I do like the look of the away shirt.

Chesterfield_Ram Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 On 06/10/2022 at 10:16, Ram@Lincoln said: Just put an order through for my lad though with gritted teeth on the price (£60 with a name and number!). Despite it saying free delivery, they're charging a "handling" fee of £0.99. If you're advertising free delivery, actually offer do free delivery. It's like buying a concert ticket and having to pay a booking fee, handling fee, venue fee, etc that adds on another £15/20 each time. Think the handling fee is because of fanatics running the shop now. Derby4Me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinman Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Some people will want plain kits, some will want jazzy kits. I certainly wouldn’t want to be the one picking the design. It’s impossible to win. CBRammette 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mucker1884 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I've been tempted (no more than that, for now!) with the green/black shirt. Defo need to see it in the flesh first (tomorrow), but whilst I like to think I'm not tight (115€ for that Bob Marley Ajax shirt to be delivered to Derby last year, anyone?) I just have this nagging suspicion that this green shirt just might not be quite fantastic enough to warrant £55. I hate myself for even suspecting that might be the case, in all honesty. Let's see what tomorrow brings... or doesn't bring! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry about that mate. It's part of my cost-cutting regime, as not all of us qualify for help at Asda cafe, or the Iceland pensioner discount! I appreciate what you're saying, but we all have limits... even you, I suspect, otherwise you'd have beaten Mr Clowes to saving the club. ?? europia and CBRammette 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
europia Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I haven't bought a replica shirt for a long time (kids grown up now)..... but seems odd that some folk are disappointed there is no sponsor on the shirt ? Personally, I support DCFC and love to see the Ram on a stylish shirt. Not interested in seeing some tacky fast food provider or grubby betting firm plastered all over the merchandise. Just my opinion. Steve How Hard?, LazloW, angieram and 3 others 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my opinion. Many of us have grown up with football shirts that have sponsors on. Liverpool, Carlsberg Man United, Sharp Newcastle, Newcastle Brown Ale Arsenal, JVC You have an original shirt of the above and you're looking at decent money now to buy one, they are classic shirts and the sponsor is part of them. Ok, gambling sponsors are controversial, yet some kids will look back at the Lampard bounce, the 32 Red Rooney with fond memories in years to come. Football shirts without sponsors these days just don't look right as sad as that may sound to some that grew up before sponsorships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheresOnlyWanChope Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Kits are generally better without sponsor. The retro ones with the ram- simple, no sponsors brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s been my approach for a decade or so. The odd polo, and a fair few training tops. I prefer the sponsor-less look… the cost (saving) is a bonus.

I’m the same generation as you and I used to not mind sponsors on shirts but I don’t like them anymore (especially if it’s something I don’t agree with like betting or alcohol). The shirts look far nicer without. I purposely bought our shirts without sponsors the last few seasons (if I can find them). The big red Just Eat logo put me off buying some of our shirts all together because I thought it was just an eyesore and totally dominated the shirt.
