I'm hoping we get Hartlepool!

Just read an article on some of the biggest names who are out of contract in the summer. Some proper players on that list. Going to be a scramble and some massive wages being dished out. Agents are already licking their lips at the sign on fees.

I really wish something could be done to regulate agents more tightly. They're a scourge on the game, taking vast sums for handling negotiations (at best) or disrupting happily settled players so they can make a fat profit on any transfer fee (at worst).

Say what you like about Gibson's many failings, but he's always given agents short shrift. And good on him for that.

The new Birmingham third kit is...something.

I actually like it.

Doesn't look like a Birmingham kit but I think it looks good.

My first thoughts are "Why the hell do Birmingham even need a third kit" and then "But if I were a Birmingham fan, I'd probably buy it."

[Brunners 7,982]

I'm usually a fan of colourful kits, but there's something about this one that just really makes me feel uneasy.

Also, the entire back is mostly just flat green. I know why they do it, but it really looks weird when there's no name & number on there.

I like it, but that tiger stripe camo pattern looks more like something Hull would wear. If Boro brought out a red & black version I'd buy it.

Weirdly enough, it's actually the same pattern that's on their home kit if you look closely. No idea if there's some meaning behind using it or if they just decided it was cool.

We appear to be entering one of those downward spirals where football top patterns get more and more outlandish, until you start arriving at monstrosities like this, and everyone pulls back in horror, and block colour sanity prevails again for a while.

That's a goalie kit though which is different, they're allowed to be weird!
