Zappa 0 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Right folks, so getting this leaked 3rd kit subject back on topic I just found this article from 19th May. The main error in the article is what they assume is going to be the third kit is actually exactly the same design template as our new Rangers training kit, so presumably that will be Newcastle's new training kit, not their 3rd kit which is actually navy & pink. Anyway, this adds even more veracity to the legitimacy of the leaked purple Rangers kit photos. Newcastle United 2015/16 Kit Contains Worrying Amounts Of ‘Glasgow Rangers’ Blue (Leaked Photos) By Chris Wright 19th, May 2015 It would appear that the new Newcastle United kits for the 2015/16 Championship season (we jest of course…or do we?) have been leaked all over social media today. The design shows the standard black and white stripes but with a creeping presence of a very familiar shade of blue. Looks like Mike Ashley is attempting to smoosh Newcastle and Glasgow Rangers together to make some kind of unholy superclub after all… For what it’s worth we sorta like it in a ‘something a bit different’ kind of way. Obviously it probably helps if you’re not concerned about the imminent emergence of Glascastle Rangited and all. But wait, the fun doesn’t stop there as the away and third strips have also supposedly been leaked too. These are they (the one on the left being the away shirt and the one on the right being the third)… Hmmm. We’re getting distinct ‘public toilet tiles’ vibes from the former and the latter looks like the result of a manufacturing error. What’s the verdict Pies fans? Why aye or a big fat nar?

Zappa 0 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 And a bit more digging reveals that the diamond pattern template is a ligit member of Puma's 2015/16 'Teamware Kits' called "Puma Swerve". Here's an article about Puma's 15/16 teamware kits from back in mid January - http://www.footyheadlines.com/2015/01/puma-15-16-teamwear-kits.html 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

26th of foot 5,833 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Sub Editors will love the opportunities presented. If we win, it will be, 'purple haze'; whereas a loss will invoke, 'shrinking violets'. The silver lining is gay Bears can lean towards the lavender. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Doesn't look as bad in that photo.... I think it is because the background is purple as well It doesn't stand out so much. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
