Unless you're getting the keeper kit, you can't. I was gonna go long sleeve as well, but was informed that there isn't likely to be one.

If you pre order the kit does anybody know when it's actually likely to arrive??

I only tend to wear Bolton kit's on match days or summer holidays these days and its soon encroaching on the latter!

Should be on the day of release. Or you could go and pick it up.

Everyone I've pre-ordered has come on release day, except for the yellow sports bra one which came a day early!

I'm not sure if it's been mentioned in another thread but this seems the best place to post this, Holden announced on Twitter that he will be changing his number to 22 from 8.

So just bear that in mind if you want to rush out and get a name on your shirt.

I got a sleeveless adidas gym top a few years ago that is exactly like the home top but without the blue or the arms. Cost about £10 or £12 iirc with no orange blob.

It had to be red stripes and blue underarm because if it was blue stripes the red underarm would look like they'd cut their armpits.

The dipped in piss one most likely arrived a day early as they couldn't wait to get it out of their store!

Not really a fan of all this squad number stuff, I much prefer the 1 - 11 with the number relating to the position.

When Rioch got us promoted to the 2nd division (or whatever it is that we'll be playing in next year) one of the 'bonuses' was that we could use squad numbers. Rioch's response went along the lines of - We'll be using nothing of the sort. In a game involving 22 men, nothing looks more redhicyaloos than number 34 being tackled by number 27. :D

I'm not gay or owt but I still love that man!

... you keep saying that.

Honestly, it's your choice, don't feel you must deny your real self.
