There is one teeny, blurry photo, and Stefan - a man who wears a women's jacket and white jeans - doesn't rate it.

Yep, that's enough to be gutted about it...

How's my driving? - Whine here

Haha. I was just hoping to find people all saying it was awesome, is all. If we can't get it right on the pitch then at least we'd have something :P

Most of the angst is semi-justified. Just people trying to find something to talk and debate about before the season starts!

I think its growing on me. I like the even Colour distrubition of it. Will be good to see a better pic of it rather than off a phone.

My only real concern is the black box on the back for the number - it will look a bit silly without printing on it imo.

the Frontrunner in ChCh had the new Phoenix Shirt for sale today.
Looks real good.
$150 - a bit on the pricey side,
Think I will stick with the retro ricki's but anyhow the team wil look good, an improvement on last year.

1. Woman's jacket?

2. I shall take back what I said. It is a blurry photo and on a coat hanger.

I cant wait to see a better picture of it. And what it looks like being worn.

$150 for the strip? Seriously?
 
That is a joke. Only $100 more for a season ticket!! How can they seriously justify that?

As someone else pointed out I reckon yellow stripes on a black kit would look better than the other way around as we seem to have now

Whats the chances of the Shirt being worn by a potential new signing in a surprise coup for the club?

Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.
