Title: Orange Away Kit Next Season
Post by: White Noise on May 06, 2012, 05:49:55 PM
In the programme today it said

Oranje is het nieuwe zwart. Which translates as Orange is the new black.

What do you think of an orange away kit?

And do you think this means the Dutchman stays and will be bringing in loads of Dutch players in the summer?

Would love an orange away kit, only because at five a side we have to wear these horrible orange bibs, i've was going to buy the Holland top, but bought a £15 nike top instead, but it'll be good to be able to wear a Fulham top, when most there are bitters.

It would be a change, and it probably is hinting at the way Jol really wants to play. If everything goes well, the oranje of Fulham could be a success in every aspect.

it means that Jol will stay and that he's interested in Eredivise players such as Brama or Chadli.

And I know that Chadli is from Belgium. 092.gif

Oranje is also the nickname of the Dutch football team. And it is also an expression in Dutch to say "the new thing", just like in English. "Orange is the new black".

If our away kit is released on the 6th of June, I wonder when our home kit will be out.
Also, I don't dislike the idea of an orange away kit, but I don't like it either. It can look awful (see QPR) and quite nice (Dutch national team).

It says "1st of April" 2012. Err?

Jol is staying then.

The US tour is supposedly not confirmed so maybe we will all be on The Magic Bus to The Dam after all.

I'd hate it - it'd remind me of QPR.

I would love it, only if done well. I've always liked the Dutch top (bit of bias considering I'm part Dutch) and for Fulham to do it would be great.

I wonder if it'll be the same stretchy material as it has been for the past two years..

As usual, the mock-up looks nice, the picture of the real kit will look okay, and the actual shirt in the shop will be made of horrible cheap man-made material and designed to fit a slim, muscular, athletic man about 30 years younger and six inches taller than me.

Replica shirts, yuck.

I'm not sure that's a reference to Fulhams new strip... I think it's just more a reference to the style of play

Well if you look at the website thats exactly the mode they used to show our away kit was going to be black, instead of orange is the new black, they used "B.i.B"
Title: Re: Orange Away Kit Next Season
Post by: dishEJtheRock! on May 07, 2012, 05:35:50 AM
why else would they put 6-6-12 on there? it has to be when they reveal the new kit and i would actually get one that was orange if it was made by any company besides kappa. im in fairly good shape and even i think they are made way too tight

I like the thought of Orange, but really hope its not the same fit as this season.

Not too fussed about our away kit - though Black & Red - stripes/hoops/halves/quarters my favoured choice. However BLACK shorts at Home - have cringed all season at that all-white choice ... bordering on the traitorous, for me!

Would prefer to keep the Red/Black theme for our Away kits.

Now, Orange for our Third Kit would be great!  Some black shorts & socks would finish nicely.


Mr. WJC, could you do a rendering of the Borussia Dortmund Home kit in orange?  They're kits are done by kappa.

I'd imagine it would be the third kit.

Orange as a third kit would be great.

Nike as the kit manufacturer would also be great.

That's what I was thinking...the original post from the Fulham Scapegoat was that it would be an Away kit & for my own peace of mind felt it necessary to clarify.

The futures bright the futures orange.
I like orange not sure about it as a away kit.

Would love this, New colour for the wardrobe. And the players would be able to see each other easier haha

I agree, the fit is the number one issue here. Ive tried on the BvB kit for comparison and the difference between the BvB and our Kit both obviously made by kappa is astounding. Slip into the BvB one and peel out of ours.

can't wait to see Sidwell and Riise wearing that kit.  064.gif

One thing I would ask the club is...have the bloody thing ready to sell in August.

Sidwell & Riise won't look as bad as the goalkeeper at the Bolton match!!

I hope it is the away kit and not the third and we should all wear it at away games like the duch do it would be great

One thing about the advert on the official site is that Kappa's name doesn't appear on it
