New strip in time for christmas : Tue Oct 16, 2018 6:34 pm  

I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised that we had the new strips for last season in time for christmas. Will it happen this year? I hope so.
I thought that both the home and away strips were pretty good. I know the away strip which was worn at the MPG drew a lot of compliments. I have to say the replica kit sizes were better too.
I do feel that by issuing a 1999 Cup Final inspired shirt last year was a bit daft. We should have had that this year to celebrate the twenty years since that game.
I await news of the strip. I know the club have a lot of things to deal with but getting shirts in in time for christmas should be one of them.

On the Progressive Rugby League Podcast they loved the all red worn in the million pound game. I like it too. I think we would do well having something very similar as 'our colours' and the home kit indefinitely. Black works well as an alternate strip. The only thing i'd like to see is that the replicas are made of 100% cotton or some blend.

My son, who was at his first game when we fare welled SL v The Bulls in 2014 got his first shirt when he was in town for the Leeds game....he's not wanted to take it off since we beat the mancpac...........i'd love a retro broncos shirt and hopefully the recent tweets are steering us away from that rubbish blue/black cricket logo.....red is London......

I like the black home shirt - hopefully with a proper white chevron and red piping next season. Goes back to the club's founding years and it's also a unique colour on the London sporting scene. And then keep the red away kit, with the little blue and yellow touches, because it goes to another good era in the club's history.

Dude on another forum reckons the badge is being updated.

I guess the availability of kits pre-Christmas depends on the search for sponsors. There isn't much time to look for some between now and the season, let alone before Christmas, but being in SL 'should' help the club bring in some new businesses. You'd think, anyway.

Kits and Sponsors are all finalised and set for delivery well before Christmas. Release of the shirts will be within a couple of weeks too.

You will have to be patient and wait for news on the badge

Good news!

I saw an updated version of the badge yesterday on facebook with the blue on the badge replaced with red.

At a guess i am going for the old Broncos kit at Fulham.Black kit with red and white chevron.

Something like this would work well aesthetically and would obtain more publicity than every other rugby league club in the world combined. If this was our strip the new stand would have to accommodate 100k never mind 1k.

We had the Fulham style shirt for our first season in the Championship.
