Your chance to decide
It’s that time again! We're inviting our fantastic fans to vote for the home shirt our teams will wear during the 2026-27 season. We’ve worked with partner Macron to produce these exclusive kit options. For season 26/27, we’ll be returning to a hooped style shirt.
Voting is in two stages:
- Stage one: Choose your favourite of the four shirts. The top two will then advance to the final. Voting for this stage closes at 6pm tomorrow (Sunday 14th).
- Stage two: Pick the winner for next season's home kit between the two finalists. Voting runs from 10am, Tuesday 16th to 6pm, Wednesday 17th.
All fans with a YourClub account can vote.
Design context
Here’s some background on what inspired each option:
Option 1 – This design is simple and classic, incorporating yellow as an accent colour, following our yellow third kit from this season.


Option 2 – Giving a fresh spin to a timeless favourite, this option draws inspiration from the shirt worn during our consecutive championship wins from 1989 to 1991.


Option 3 – With a focus on clean white, this shirt uses a black shadow pattern to create the hoops, complemented by a classic round collar.


Option 4 – And something a bit different…this shirt features a mainly black design with white shadow hoops.
