SHIRTS
Over the years the style of our shirts have changed, as happens at all top flight clubs. is obviously done to increase revenue, and best show sponsorship details. However, they appear to have lost the identity of being the "Tigers". The old green, white and red hoops that were so traditional, will never be surpassed, unless they can be resurrected. I would like to think this could be done.

Green, red and white hoops? Do we not have those this season?Dangerous4 wrote: ↑Thu Dec 06, 2018 6:05 pm Over the years the style of our shirts have changed, as happens at all top flight clubs. is obviously done to increase revenue, and best show sponsorship details.

Re: SHIRTS
Lack of passion is nothing to do with the shirts. Plus if we just had the traditional shirts all the time, no one would buy them after a year and Tigers would loose out massively on sales. I can see why there is an argument for a retention of traditional home shirts but differing away shirts each year but that still wouldn't profit as much.

Re: SHIRTS
The shirt in which we won our second Heineken Cup arguably had the 3rd fewest numbers of hoops in living memory. It also featured the first “solo” Tiger badge. So I don’t think hoops are necessarily the sole problem

Re: SHIRTS
What is meant by our traditional shirts varies depending on when you first watched the Tigers, it would be good if we could return to a shirt being available before the season started. Watched a bit of the Varsity match today thought the shirts with collars looked good, like proper rugby shirts not tee shirts for the beach. O.K I know I am an old git but I liked them.
Re: SHIRTS
I agree John, I don’t like shirts that look like advertising hoardings either!
