    Closer look at the away kit

    Don't know about everyone else but before just now, I've only seen the away kit in that release picture, which is Keogh wearing it in the background. Here's a closer up picture of it and I'll link the album of the whole kit close up.

    Definitely the best away shirt we've had for a long time, I did like last years but the colour wasn't the best choice, had that one been this years colour then it would have been good, but yeah, definitely the best kit of this seasons three.

    What kit designers need to think about is if they design kits with hoops it doesn't do fans with beer bellies any justice. A large percentage of fans are beer swilling beer guts. I may be wrong. I don't like pics of kit but until I see in flesh I'm undecided. Sponsor looks shocking.

    I'd rather the kits look good on players rather than us fatties. I understand how that is not a good idea economically, but i'd rather go see derby in a cool looking kit than have it look alright on a fat bloke.

    I thought the sponsor was supposed to cater for large blokes!!!

    maybe its reverse psychology, if the shirt does not fit it might encourage a few to get fit down the gym and tackle the obesity epidemic?

    Think this kit would look better with teal - or even white - shorts, rather than the navy shown in the first PR shot.

    And hooped socks. Every kit should have hooped socks!

    It looks okay as a piece of casual wear. Doesn't look much like a football shirt to me but then I am a traditionalist in that area.

    However, there is no way I am ever walking around with that sponsor logo plastered across my chest/stomach! If they sell them without it (which they won't) then I'd consider buying one.

    I wish they'd stop and think about who they use, it's quite embarrassing. Financially good or not. Next we'll have Tampax in big bold letters across the front!

    Do you think they need to remember that is sports wear and not casual wear to whilst they are at it!?!?!?

    And what do you suggest they think about for say... Qpr for example
