Let's face it, the CEO employed a media and comms person from cricket to a Marketing role, got the commercial manager from cricket and the clubs gear from...er......a manufacturer ho has a core business making kit for......er......cricket.

There's common theme here....can anyone see what it is?

London Broncos RL & Cricket Club we ain't.......but in Gus's defence, the team were playing terribly this year

IIRC there was a desire to pick a colour scheme that isn't used by many other teams. The black and teal took a bit of getting used to, but it does give the club the potential for lots of designs in future. A chevron design is something I'm looking forward to.

It was explained to me that the shirt had to be something that you would be happy wearing "down the pub"......... as it is, I reckon that if you put a chevron on this years shirt, you'd sell twice as many as they shifted this year.

I'm personally not a fan of a chevron, to me it shouts out 1970's Northern side. No need to copy them IMO

Seems a daft design criteria as there should be other items designed for wearing down the pub. The playing shirt was pretty dull and looked poor quality.

The London Origin shirt design is the sort of thing we should have.

I've also like the red 1999 challenge cup jersey, change the colours to the current one and I think it would be a winner

Not too bothered about colours but just praying we will somehow get away from MKK who have produced some of the worst quality sporting garments I have ever seen. Obviously not much chance of it happening though.

I will be poenning a letter to the club and RFL at the end of the season....I will be sure to mention the standard and supply of the MKK gear...amongst other things

I know I will probably be shot for this, but my favorite kit was the Quins RL first away strip, the white one with the red and blue stripes down the side. Sorry, I will get my coat.

GF Im sure they have got your messages loud and clear via this site. Do they also need a letter?

The mail room probably have a special pigeon hole for letters from NZ.

If the RFL wish to avoid Bradford Bulls II, they need to take a certain amount of control away from DH, who together with his cricketing CEO has pi55ed the first year of a 3 year licence up the wall byt keeping faith with a coach, who, once he was sacked, could have been replaced by me via SKYPE and the team would have upped their game......by delivering less fans year on year and blaming the residents who we've never asked to games for not coming to games and by scrambling around looking for yet another place to "start again" less than 12 months after the failed and pointless re-brand that was designed to cover up the crap that went on before.

Letter, Telephone call, email or f**king parcel bomb, somebody needs to take the bull by the horns (no pun intended...either of them)in London or the club will die.

No it doesn't, it shouts "Rugby League", which is what we are.

I'm no longer that bothered what our colours are. We've chopped and changed that much we simply don't have "traditional" club colours, which I think is very sad. I won't buy any more replica shirts as you never know when they'll change to something totally different at the drop of a hat.

I liked the original Fulham kit, which obviously had its origins in Fulham FC's black & white colours. I liked the red/yellow/blue quarters of the mid-90's, which were briefly revived as the 2010 away shirt. I assume this pattern was chosen as we were sponsored by "Foster's" lager at the time and these were their corporate colours, but it looked so distinctive I felt it worked. There was absolutely no doubt who that team in red/yellow/blue quarters was. Someone mentioned earlier that the current black/turquoise was chosen to look different from other clubs, but it has all the hallmarks of somthing chosen by a marketing consultant, no doubt paid far too much to think of something anyone possessing a modicum of imagination could have come up with.

If we were going to have an essentially all black kit it would have made more sense to me to revert to the Fulham-style black with white/red chevron. If we wanted something brighter that would give us a clear identity (and was already associated with the first "Broncos" era) go back to the red/yellow/blue. Or have one as the home kit and the other as the away kit.

Once again I read a post of yours and find my neck hurting from nodding in agreement so much.

The current shirts are just a bit bland. They're not distinctive in any way - it doesn't strike me as though much thought was put into them at all, like the rest of the 're-brand'.

The Harlequins colours were distinctive, and in time I think we grew into them. My favourite shirt from that era is still the light blue/dark blue quartered away shirt from one of the earlier seasons.

Our incessant re-branding has rendered all kits, and any attempt to create a unique identity, utterly meaningless. Well done the club.

This is the new shirt for next season.

Agree with Pingwing that the blue shirt was great.....think Kooga are the best shirts by far.

Sadly, RL seems to have ditched traditional rugby shirts and followed the NRL example of tight, shiny Soccer style shirts.....if only our supporters had the physique for tight, shiny shirts!



Whatever happens, please can they do away with the horrid half collar monstrosity...and no romper suits for our poor team who (frankly) have suffered quite enough with camp kits!

My Leeds shirt is of excellent quality.

LMS coming back?

sham the same can't be said of their coach

You're right, our club doesn't want a winner

Was more w****r than winner when he was with us!

I apologise for having an opinion.

I apologise for disagreeing and having an opinion of my own.
