The third top will not be available until Nike appove the release date which is going to be next week at the earliest. If it is confirmed for next week the club shops will start sending out some tops on Friday.

 

This means I wont have it for Saturday 

Good!

 

I think that 3rd tops ruin the overall feeling of a match day, as they are normally a far cry from the 'usual' team colours.

 

Nothing better than seeing a sea of red whether you're home, away or in Europe.

The new 3rd kit looks awesome. Good to see a bit of tradition with the old colours. Much better than the previous A-Fab experiment a decade or so ago!

 

Everybody now. Black and gold, barm.........ehh nevermind.

Anywhere with a pic of the 3rd top?

Thought that was the road top this season.

 

road top? Is this another americanism that I am missing?

Do you mean away top?  If so then it is the same as last season:

The third tops are getting sent out tonight, however due to the postie strike..........they will be stuck in the sorting office.

Gotta like that, Why not have them at the club shop and let folk pick them up?

 

BTW - I prefer the 3rd top to the AWAY top

I think the third top looks a bit yucky.

 

Don't know what it is, just not a fan.

I phoned earlier and the guy said they're being released on Tuesday.

 

Think I'll be getting one eventually.

The official release date for the shop is Tuesday. I got a call from the shop as my details had changed since I  ordered the top and she said that my top would be in the post tonight.

Any reason why they can't just release it tomorrow then?

Any reason why we need a third top?

 

Roll on the money-making comments...but we only wear our 2nd/away top a handful of times a season. Admittedly I do like the 3rd top but fans and fleecing spring to mind.

 

It may be nice but it's not needed.

Any reason why we need a third top?

 

I believe the rules for UEFA competitions require a 3rd kit.

That's utterly brilliant. So the club have a valid reason to fleece us.

 

I hope we get knocked out first round now... 

 

 

Yeeeha thats my new top arrived 

 

I LIKE!

And when we make it through to the group stage, what will you do HTB?  I have a pint with your name on it when I'm over if we get knocked out in the 1st round.

 

I am supposed to be coming home for the holidays.

Big fan of the black and gold. Probably something to do with my first ever Dons kit being the "change" strip (as it was called in them days) from 76, all gold with the four narrow black stripes doon the left hand side.

 

Never, ever saw anyone else with one!

My last and only black and gold top was during the ebbe era

Gonna cost me a fortune for strips when I get over.
