I'm sorry, but £75 for that plain red shirt is taking the piss!!
We are in the throes of economic hardship for many families and the club hike the prices to extortionate levels.
I do like the second shirt and I love the third kit, but the home shirt is way too bland and boring

Does anyone know if we have a main sponsor lined up for this season, I'd have thought it would have been on the shirts for the unveiling

No! you're right, they don't have to buy one.
But as you well know, football fans feel obliged to buy the latest shirt, rightly or wrongly.
You try telling an impressionable teenager whose mates are all wearing the new shirt, that you cant afford that type of money to buy them one!
Do you seriously think it is Adidas that have slapped the £75 price tag on those shirts? Forest would've purchased them at a lot lower price then added their profit margin onto them. That couldve been reduced to make the shirts more affordable to the lower paid supporters that struggle to make ends meet.
Bear in mind our shirts are only sold at the club shop and the clubs online shop so the club are the retailer also. Then tell me they couldnt have sold them any cheaper

The price hikes within everything at the club during an economic climate has been poor in my view.

They know they'll still sell them. Already people queuing outside the club shop this morning. And it seems to be about standard price for Premier League shirts this season.
It would've been nice if the club had broken the mould and priced them lower though.

Here you go. The exact same shirt minus the Forest badge. Yours for £11.96
That said I have to admit I really like both away shirts.

Really like the home shirt - reminds me of 78/79!!! Want to see the back of the white one -if it is white, it looks veey nice but not for me if it has the pattern on it. I will leave the 3rd one for my son i think...

Apparently, the 3rd choice shirt was inspired by Nottingham Castle.
Does anybody know what connection Yokahoma in Japan has with the Castle?
Lol
