I like blue crest 1987 with the number on the shorts. Hope we have a shortlist if designs to vote on and see the winning kit be manufactured.

Quoted from AussieMariner
Gotta say I hate the horizontal stripes at the bottom of the current shirt - make every player look like they've got a beer gut - not to mention the fans!
Quite like the 2011-12 shirt - still b&w stripes but that extra bit of red just adds a bit of aggression.


Good job we never signed Rhead as rumoured or Parkin/mcnulty

We did sign Gunning though!


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

Quoted from HackneyHaddock
If we're not getting a new kit, can we at least all agree that the club should retire the awful drab grey away kit?  Can't for the life of me see what it brought in terms of aesthetic or identity.

Other than that, the only stipulations I'd make would be:

-  White sleeves on the home shirt
-  Stripes on the back rather than a block colour
-  White panel on the back, with red numbers

and last but my no means least:

-  NO FLUORESCENT KITS (a dreadful trend we shouldn't be part of)


The panel is a league rule these days anyway for clarity. Probably a reason why most manufacturers don't bother with stripes on the back - it's probably easier and cheaper to make.

Notts and Newcastle had striped backs this season.

I stand corrected. I thought I'd seen that somewhere. Maybe it was a non-league thing.

I think it is/was a rule in European competition. Seem to remember Barca having 'two' kits one year.

I believe that names and numbers have to be clearly visible and given you now have a name as well as a number, it's easier for most manufacturers to just make the number panel extra big to make sure.  More to do with interpretation and ease of design/manufacture.

Much as I loved white numbers on black (the Lotto 1996-97 "Juve" Town shirt being the pinnacle of the genre), I would like to see us back with red numbers on a white background!

We had red on white at Wembley in 98. That's the only argument needed really.
