How are you ripped off? Its the third kit. . . not likely to be used too often. . . just dont get why you feel ripped off!

White is actually the 2nd strip and was sold as such. We have worn it in a couple of away fixtures but in the vast majority of away games we have worn blue, a kit not available to buy??

I dont see it as ripping anyone off- we all have a choice

It's not the third kit, if you look on the website it is advertised as the 'away kit' and well why buy a kit if it's never going to be used.

I don't see why we haven't worn it very often, for example we could have worn it away at Tamworth but still chose to wear blue.

A white away kit was always going to be a silly colour when te league has a lot of teams with white as a dominant colour in they kit...

I personally think the club dropped a bollock and should've had a blue away kit again and sold that, I'm sure more would've bought it than the white...

Surely the trust should mention this to the powers that be that wearing a kit thats not  available is madness

The white kit was marketed as the away kit and, as such, fans bought it under the assumption that we would be wearing it in away games where home teams don't wear white.

In reality, we've hardly worn it. Even on occasions when white wouldn't have clashed with the home team, e.g. Newport, Tamworth etc, we've worn blue, which is a bit of a mystery.
