My money is on a great big poppy outfit.

Know we've been cheapening the WW1 connection for a while now but a pun based kit cash in feels in pretty poor taste.

Harry Kane has renewed his sponsorship for next season. Well done Harry and the club. Let's hope it's a decent shirt.

Likely to be popular considering how many of our fanbase get a boner over a century old war.

My guess is a red shirt

Nice edit - Should read my second guess is a red shirt.

Brings a tear to the eye

Hmm.

Is that red with a red sash or a trick of the light?

Your prediction wasn't far off. Guess we aren't signing James McClean next season.

Quite like the shirt, although a white sash would have been better, obviously.

Shame about the sponsor and the yellow over the front means I won’t be buying.

Red with a sash . I think the shirt looks alright.

Is that because he would be against financially supporting soldiers who murdered
Unarmed civilians in the city he was born in ?

Because it’s a sponsor that helps our veterans?

And so it begins.

It's a better sponsor than most we've had in that it doesn't actively promote harm, unlike our many obscure betting companies over the years, or the sun. But a silhouette of a dead WW1 veteran is quite an intense energy to be bringing week in week out to a league 2 football club.

The club may lose out on the support of those with Irish heritage
This year financially , not all mind but some .

I have No problem with the image of the soldier , but all world war 1 veterans are gone now .
Financially supporting veterans who may have been involved with some rather dodgy
killings may taint there view a little .

I hope its only a 1 year sponsorship deal.

Away shirt is gonna be Union Jack print with a picture of the Queen Mum intertwined with the wyverns for the badge.

What is going on with the fingers of Harry’s right hand?

Shirt must have a hole in it already.

Is the brave soldier picture yellow or gold?

Hope so. I’d break the habit of a lifetime and buy it

That’s a shame. The club could have done a nice line in balaclavas.

Pissing off all the right people, proud of the club

Just need COYOS to write an email to club complaining about it now.

Least the club have already thought about how to unite the fanbase.
