Castore - get rid?

Not much effort put into the design is there?

I can think of 2 occasions when Everton have not played in royal blue/blue at home in a proper competition during my lifetime.

1. Inter Milan in 1963 European Cup(UEFA driven rules).

2. Colchester in 70/71 FA Cup tie which was switched to Goodison so Everton were notionally the away team.

Everton and Sunderland is a quintessential FA Cup tie between 2 very traditional clubs and supporter bases and being broadcast live on what is seen as one of football’s great days…the 3rd round of the cup.

It will be a full house and the ticket prices probably mean many young kids will go to their first home game and Everton decide that we don’t play this game in our famous home team colours.

Seriously,who makes these decisions and who signs them off? It feels like we have leadership and management that can’t wait to denigrate our heritage and what we stand for in the city and the wider football community.

Can you imagine any of our fellow founder members of the PL carrying this out.

Arsenal wear all white for 3rd round of the cup whether at home or away

 

[Fedlingen]

I like it better than the 3rd kit. But playing at home in anything but the home kit is a disaster.

 

[Gallaeo]

Maybe cos we’ve been so cr@p at home lately they’ve tried to get an away type performance…..

Seriously tho ye, have got to wear blue at home

 

[skucksy]

These ones. They didn't even put club badges on them.

This is depressing!!

 

[mccole]

Dressed for a funeral and respectfully we played like it was one.

Utter Circus

No they don't - they had an all white kit as part of an anti knife campaign.

 

[gonetomorrow]

Could be worse. Hibs have got bevvy.com on the front of their shirts.

 

[The Littlest Yobo]

To be fair, they were going to, and then fan groups and some sponsors were not happy.

First I’ve heard of this. You got a source for this, mate? Ta

 

[jackyboy]

Is that it for the kit then?

Compliments the on field performances perfectly

Kinda glad we lost so the kit will be on sale by the end of the month.
115 quid for a one game FA Cup run.

Castore co-founder Tom Beahon has defended the rising cost of replica football kits in an interview with the BBC's Big Boss Interview podcast, arguing that market forces would naturally drive prices down if fans genuinely couldn't afford them.

Oh ok then mate! Why not just make them affordable in that case?
