Hiya everyone, I'm a new member here, Dutch, and an avid football shirt collector, for which I write short bits about individual tops on my hobby blog. Having had MK Dons as my Football Manager team for years, I was keen to get this year's kit and have done a little review of it. Sharing it here as I figured it might be of interest :) ;

I'm curious as to what your thoughts are on it, and whether you are happy with Errea and this shirt or would rather go back to one of the previous manufacturers (or heck, have adidas or someone else come in; Errea's contract ends this summer).

I find the collar (at the front) annoying.

Hate the collar, and like Alby said the material feels a bit cheap. I would like us to go back to a more established brand like Nike. Would be happy with Adidas, Puma, hummel or Umbro as well.

But if I could pick any manufacturer, it would be Kappa. All of their kits look great (on the players, not on a 20 stone supporter).

Would really like something a bit more adventurous and different next season though. Getting a bit bored of the usual white/red/black or white/red/yellow. Perhaps a more obscure third kit for a change.

Wow, a thread tailor-made for Alby (puns intended - I'm working hard here!). Get ready for a mamoth post from him. :)

The one think that could improve the shirt are a couple of Bovril stains, that could be a real winner.

The collar is horrible and the whole shirt needs some black on it as in 2014/15 or 2015/16 to make it less bland. Material quality is poor.

The problem I have is that I associate the shirt with the season it's for.

I'll only have bad feelings when I look at this one in the coming years

Don’t like the shirt, collar is awful, not keen on the overall look either, seems like it’s been designed in a primary school experiment
