I don't like it therefore nobody else can.
I'll probably buy one when it's £20 at the end of the season.

"The eye-catching vibrant away shirt was initially inspired by the plethora of water lilies along the River Cam, with the imagination growing further afield to an aqua-inspired floral baroque design, which can often be seen in far-eastern pottery" Ahahahahahah, make it stop. I can't breath. Andrew Steve Coogan must have been expensive for the club to consult with!

I've surprised myself - I really like it and I'm in my 50's!
Makes me think of the Beatles and the 90's Manchester scene. Especially with the matching bucket hat. Fool's Gold?

My mummy says don't get so worked up about these things, you've been sectioned for less.

I’m concerned for grown men on twitter genuinely angry or enjoy venting towards our admin guy that it’s a rubbish kit. When will these people realise that they’re not the target market.

Already surpassed last season’s opening day record sales! They always say this when they release a terrible shirt as justification. They did it with the horror show patchwork quilt one a couple of years ago. They could get in some trouble with the ASA if the claim isn't true, it's unlikely they are lying.

I think it's great and I'm glad the club have done it. If I didn't have my own gravitational pull akin to the moon's I'd buy that with LENNETT on the back.

Couldn’t care less what we wear as long as we win a few more away games than in recent times. I don’t particularly like it, but don’t hate it either. As other posters have said, it’s popular with those who would have been the target so all is good.

Dunky babes would have looked great in that, ( sheds silent tear).
What colour are the shorts, white or blue? It’s slowly growing on me.

Not a fan of either kit but hoping the third kit might be for me. Kits are all personal choice and worst case I might grab a hoodie.

If you don’t like it - you are probably too old to be target market… As a 50+ year old, I admit I hate it. My 25 year old daughter also hates it, as does my 10 year old son. My mum 50+++ and my older sister hate it, so not sure what the ideal a target age is. Hope the third kit is better. (Of course we may all have terrible taste in clothing, so who knows)

When I first saw it I thought of Edwardian tea services of the kind my ancestors would have brought out on special occasions in a freezing cold front room that was always only ever used when trying to impress. *Note...youngsters wouldn't understand, different world!!
