....Looks gross in my opinion

Looks like the ugly Grimsby town cyclist tops you see around town

Not a fan at all and will just keep wearing my last years shirt with Bogle on it for now ha.

What's everyone else's thoughts... if you haven't seen it it's just been uploaded onto the telegraph site

I know the club can do no wrong in the eyes of some on here but why are we launching a kit a day for 3 days? Is this some sort of super marketing policy?

Seems total nonsense to me that the 1st kit is launched today, the away kit tomorrow and the 3rd on Friday

I like it. Reminds me a bit of the 10/11 shirt (which isn't why I like it, by the way!)

I like it! The black stripes and red collar look good and I like the badge being in white, it stands out well.

The faded stripes on the back aren't great though and an all black back would have been better.

I like it, and at the end if the day there is only so much you can do, the same badge, the same manufacturer and the same sponsor and black and white stripes! Not going to please everyone, but you never can. Look forward to getting mine and hoping the away and 3rd are nice too!

Looks alright to me but I'll stick with my old one (2015/16) for now.

Collar looks a bit odd, but we've had much worse.

I stopped buying shirts some years ago as we always seemed to do terribly when I got one! Admittedly, this was back during the years of the endless decline which ultimately led to the Conference.

Looks fine to me although not sure why the outside stripes don't meet the one on the shoulder.

I like it,  I'm just pleased to see that the black bit on the back doesnt look like a big square patch just sewn on like the one a couple of seasons ago. Also like the pointed design of the black stripes on the front and white stripes on the back.

I like it more than last season's offering anyway. I have the shirt from last season though so probably won't buy this one, maybe I'll see what the away and 3rd kit are like and buy one of those buy not expecting anything amazing from those.

I like it, but when you zoom in I can see why an earlier poster says it looks a bit like a cycling top, but I also think that the fading etc. gives it a modern yet traditional look 8.5/10

From the front it looks really smart i think. I quite like it.

I am not totally won over by the back though.

If I am going to buy another shirt it would be the home kit. Its got to be black and white stripes.

Dont think i have ever bought an away kit so the 2nd and 3rd kits would have to be stunningly good for that to change.

I liked last seasons but this is even better. Great kit by Errea


Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong  
Update:  I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly

I really like it.  Very clean and smart-looking.

Looking forward to seeing the second and third strips.  If we're to go for something a bit out of the box on one of them, then maybe the blue and white narrow hoops or blue/red halves from the Grimsby Pelham days.  Maybe even bring back the an incarnation of the 90s yellow/red number.

New blue away kit is in today's telegraph, very nice it is too


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

Waited to see high res images before passing judgement properly but the away kit is pretty terrible imo. Hope the third one is a belter.

The gradient gives the shirt a sort of tie-dye style to it which is obviously to commemorate 50 years since the summer of love. Expect Town to travel to away games in a VW Camper next season.

I like it but will not be buying one,

I still have the one we got promoted in and the red away shirt,

Living in Suffolk and not getting to many games a season now days,

So they will have to last me for another 10 years or until I kick the bucket,

Whichever comes first.

Agreed, looks like any other non descript blue strip worn by countless clubs

Never bought an away shirt in my life, pure marketing con, if you turned up to a away game wearing your home shirt, would people not know who you are supporting?

There are very few times we HAVE to use an away strip anyway, I'm old school, use our famous black and whites as much as possible


Are we any closer to getting promoted since Hurst has been here? No

Has he been given time to achieve promotion by the chairman and fans? Yes

As long as someone can tell me which team is Town (not always easy with so many unfamiliar names!), I really am indifferent to what the new fashion looks like. My present black-and-white striped shirt, only suitable for wearing on warm days anyway, will have to suffice....

I daresay that any of our change kits won't have black or white as a main colour. It kinda, y'know, defeats the object...

If I'm 100% honest, I don't like either. The home kit is odd, that red stripe on the shorts looks odd and the collar just isn't right. They got it right with the gradients on last years kit but not this year.

Hugely disappointed. Have liked errea kits until now.

Totally agree with you re the home kit. It looks a bit of a mess close up tbh.

Like the away kit though.

Would have liked to see chocolate and sky blue quarters, paying homage to the distant past..

Paying homage or not, those colours would look horrendous in my opinion.

Unfortunately as the 2nd Kit is already blue the third wont have blue in it.  More likely red but hopefully an as yet never tried before choice

All they needed to do was design a plain pink shirt and they've gone and ruined it. It looks like someone has fallen asleep under a sun lounger and got burned.

Let's just fooking pray to god that we never ever have to play in that kit . Possibly the most disgusting strip we've ever had and that includes that LSD inspired Ribero magic eye salmon red one .

I think the 3rd kit is pretty cool actually. Indifferent about the second and you can't go too far wrong with b&w stripes (as long as the width of stripes is right!).

Can someone explain to me the need for a third strip please?

If we play a team away that has a blue kit and we can't use our blue strip then surely we can play in black and white?

Why stop at 3 strips? Let's have a nice gold/brown kit for the games we play in the autumn and a red strip with white fur around the collars and a big leather belt we could wear over the Christmas period, the possibilities are endless

No. I'm saying I don't like any of them because I genuinely don't like any of them. We got it right with last years Home & Away kits but they're absolutely awful this season. I'm sure I'd look less of a plank than you in one anyway.

Am I not allowed an opinion anymore without someone saying it's just because I'd look like a Numpty in one? It's perfectly feasable that somebody might just not like them.

I know others will have a different opinion and that's fine, not everybody agrees on everything but I don't think it's right to use an insult against everyone who doesn't share your godly opinion.

It's a cost cutting exercise, to be used during the midweek winter games, don't have to use the floodlights when wearing that kit.

Should make all GTFC personnel and board, wear the top on match days.

If any player gets confused with our away blue kit and SWFC home shirt they should question their own footballing abilities.

I once played a Sunday league match on Bradley pitches when both teams turned up in all  red kits,  after toying with the idea of one playing in "skins" it was decided  that one team wore their shirts inside out and pull up their sleeves! Job done, not a pink strip in sight

I see your point on inter though!!

It's a cost cutting exercise, to be used during the midweek winter games, don't have to use the floodlights when wearing that kit.

Should make all GTFC personnel and board, wear the top on match days.

How seriously do some people take football kit designs. Like there's an exact science to making a kit that everyone will love.

Think we need to accept that some will like it, other won't, and this time next year it'll all change again anyway.

Bring on the new season.

Let's just fooking pray to god that we never ever have to play in that kit . Possibly the most disgusting strip we've ever had and that includes that LSD inspired Ribero magic eye salmon red one .


That one is amazing though I'd pay good money for that in decent condition

The third kit will likely be used against Coventry & Colchester. Dependent on how much white their new kits have then maybe against Carlisle & Chesterfield as well.

I think the striped style on the third kit would have looked good on last years red away kit.

We could get away with black and white against Carlisle and possibly Coventry as well as long as they wear genuine sky blue kit.

Terrible
They look like they are dressed in packets of Crab sticks 👎🏼


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

I've just realised something after several years of buying my son the kit every season. The Children's replica kit costs more than the Adult Kit.

Adult Shirt £33.32
*£33.32 + £6.67 VAT @ 20% = £39.99

Children's Shirt £34.99
*VAT on Children's clothing is 0%.

So the Children's shirts are actually £1.67 more expensive than the Adult shirts.

I imagine the club have been incorrectly charging VAT on children's replica kit for years rather than just ripping parents off?

How many did they actually have in stock?

But to be honest don't really care what a third strip looks like, it could be a teeny weeny yellow polkadot bikini with "Imps" written all over it for all I care, as long as they get the home kit right which I think they have


Are we any closer to getting promoted since Hurst has been here? No

Design 'different' but obviously proved to be very popular, marketing very smart.. A different kit each day builds anticipation and makes up for the lack of signing news.

I like it how the club prioritises Lincs based fans. It wasn't until I moved out of the area that I realised that.

The 2nd and 3rd kits are bloody awful.... you could be sick on both and not be able to spot where....  why do we not have simple designs of a plain colour.... ffs


If you're throwing up blue liquid I'd be seriously worried!!

No. I'm saying I don't like any of them because I genuinely don't like any of them. We got it right with last years Home & Away kits but they're absolutely awful this season. I'm sure I'd look less of a plank than you in one anyway.

Am I not allowed an opinion anymore without someone saying it's just because I'd look like a Numpty in one? It's perfectly feasable that somebody might just not like them.

I know others will have a different opinion and that's fine, not everybody agrees on everything but I don't think it's right to use an insult against everyone who doesn't share your godly opinion.


Buuut you saying you'd look 'better' in it is okay? There's a flawed argument there somewhere!

I like all 3, if i could afford it and if pink suited me I'd buy the full home kit and the pink kit... But being an average Joe in an average job I can't. So I'll get the home strip when I come up to Grimsby in August

Exactly this,its only opinion.
Good marketing and promotion to shift a "different" design.
Lets face it,certain fans will purchase a shirt regardless of colour design etc

Went in to get my home shirt today -  very smart. Reminds me a bit of the 99/00 home shirt (Dixons sponsor with black background/red writing). Think it's the v neck collar and similar patterened sleeves. Still got reservations about the all black back but I suppose if I'm wearing it I can't see it!

On my way there I saw a bloke wearing the away shirt and have to say I changed my mind about it instantly. I don't think the pictures really did it justice and seeing it up close it is a decent shirt. I ended up buying one so hopefully that extra £30 can tempt a decent player here next season (I doubt the margins are that fine though!).

I am still unsure about the pink/purple kit though. When I heard the rumour that we were having one I had visions of the classy pink kits that Palermo have had over the years or even some of the better Juventus away kits. Again I think the pictures haven't really done the shirt justice because the pink bits of the shirt aren't that bad however the stripes ruin it for me. I'll still end up getting it though - I've got every shirt pretty much going back about ten years and over 50 in total.
