Home – obvious
Away – red & black, not bothered in what design or combination
Third – anything but green & white hoops. The late great Macca never liked it & that’s a good enough reason to never let a QPR badge adorn such hideousness ever again.
As for manufacturer, sponsor or any other gumpf – I couldn’t give a monkey’s. I would never purchase nor wear one as I have always been a firm believer that anyone over the age of 18 should only wear a football shirt if they’re playing football (that doesn’t apply to good looking females however).

I don't mind it. IF I was going to buy any of them (which I'm not) I would buy this one.

Please make kit which fits lardarses like me. Lotto shirts are stupidly small.
Please think of Cotton Traders gear as the sizing model to emulate.

Yup. They want to sell shirts yet make them "fitted" thus ensuring a third (?) of potential buyers won't be able to wear them.
It's not as if there has been a shortage of documentaries on the obesity situation in UK2012. |
Perhaps Lotto run to a similar body fascism code of conduct as Abercrombie and Superdry. If fat bastards can't fit in them, they won't be seen polluting our brand.
Sad but, I fear, all too true. |

I think I like it. Not enough to buy it, but I think it's the best of a mediocre bunch anyway.

You could well be right.
Plus there's the subtle extra profit made on adult shirts versus those designated as children. Taking away the VAT difference which doesn't apply to the kids' shirts, the adult ones are about a £1 more expensive. Therefore the more kids have to buy the adult versions, the more profit is made.

I reckon anyone who did want to buy it should just wait for the end of season sale when they'll be knocked out for a fiver or so (possibly with those colours never having been worn in a match --- though they might force the issue late on in a couple of matches to try and push them) |

That's what they always do. The first half of the season they where the away kit when they need to change, and the 2nd half they wear the 3rd kit, except when colour clashes force a clear choice. In fact I think it's in the rules that you're only allowed to vountarily wear a certain kit (apart from the home kit) a maximum number of times.

Yeah I know that but it was for 40 odd years, before I was born. I've only ever known Blue & White Hoops & whoever decided to make the change was a genius!

It's difficult to assess a pro/con green and white hoops opinion, without wondering if there's a sectarian/old firm element behind it.

Dear Club
For next year, it will be very easy to get all of the fans to buy all of the kits:
HOME: FAT BLUE AND WHITE HOOPS, WHITE SHORTS, WHITE SOCKS
AWAY: FAT RED AND BLACK HOOPS, BLACK SHORTS, RED SOCKS
3RD: FAT GREEN AND WHITE HOOPS, WHITE SHORTS, WHITE SOCKS.
Its really quite simple. |
That is how simple it is! |
