    Here's the new kit announcement, along with new sponsors Dafabet. http://www.fulhamfc.com/news/2018/july/11/2018-19-kits-released-dafabet

    I can't say I'm wild about either design, nor the colour of the away shirts, but maybe I'm just being a miserable curmudgeon. I'm not a fan of kits being sponsored by gambling companies either, but that's a whole other debate.

    I'd agree Super Bri, the saving grace being .................. our team will wear them with pride as it's the badge that counts.

    Sorry Captain, incorrect attribute. Funny, I've noticed the more senior I get, the more moments I have.

    dafabet already sponsor Celtic & Leicester City. Wonder if it has links to the Leicester chairman ?
    I'd agree not a fan of betting companies sponsorship.

    I suppose the blue shirts could be attributed to our original name Fulham St.Andrews FC.

    Cairney certainly looks as if he's modelling the Scottish shirt. Fulham St Andrews were decidedly more natty, and they do say the 'jockey-look' went down a bomb at the Greyhound.

    It occurred to me last night that with the retro vibe the club seems to be going for, the blue away shirts might be a nod in the direction of our Europa league final shirts.

    Quite all right 2WS; I'll take it as a compliment to be mistaken for SuperBri.

    FWIW - the home kit resembles the championship winning year kit in the 90's - is that retro? It's okay but the blue, I prefer harrods Green! Just kidding but really, Blue! I much preferred the black or the red options.
