Not amazing, not terrible - though I still hate the collar on the men's shirt
The map on the side of the shirts/shorts is a map of Sale from 1861

Now the Miami Sharks are no more, maybe taling a similar template on navy and white would have worked better.

Don't mind the Sale jersey. Shame it's cursed by the same collar we have.
We still dont have a clue what we'll be wearing on Friday

If you moved your games to Catalonia you'd lose your wind and rain home advantage though
Yeah
I am a little disappointed we'll probably lose the black strip. I would prefer to keep that however im not going to complain considering whats happening.

Yeah I didn't realise Red Bull have a history of changing their sides to red and white, which will also be annoying because if they do it with Newcastle they'll be changing to Gloucester's colours
And Sunderlands....

We all know Middlesbrough and the Smoggies are the true kings in the North.
Plus they invented the Parmo.

Is having to google both Smoggies and Parmo a dead giveaway that I’ve lived my whole life in Surrey?

Not bad tbf, certainly not as bad as it could've been
What's the thought process?
Also happy for Newcastle that they've kept the black
Yellow Strip is fab
Black strip good...so glad we've kept the black!
Badge awful

The yellow top is like the old Arsenal football top from 20 years ago....

The new club crest encompasses the North Star, reflecting Newcastle Red Bulls' status as the league's northernmost club as well as giving direction.
The dynamic bulls represent the driving force with the club always moving forward, with other elements of the design incorporating a rugby ball and the Tyne Bridge.
As well as the black home kit, Newcastle Red Bulls have also unveiled their gold away shirt, demonstrating a proud connection with the club's professional history.
The club wore black with gold trim in lifting their 1997-98 Premiership title – still the only team ever to win the top-flight crown the first season after promotion.

I've just said that, very similar
TY.
I'm sure it'll grow on me - doing a sports logo must be a thankless business - I can't think of an actually good one that isn't pre-existing with a long history.

Agreed, with the exception of the badge which to me should be a sacrosanct consistent identifier.
It just screams franchise to me. And while RB may be a long term investor who will do a lot of good, one day they will leave the stage and a new identity will have to be created. A nod back to heritage whether Falcons or earlier would have been the classy thing to have done.
But that’s the era Newcastle find themselves in and they weren’t exactly in a strong bargaining position.

Should have gone for the Newcie Brown Star with the Tyne bridge.
