Quoted from Hagrid


Its an opinion.


Of Course you are entitled to your opinion and fair play for expressing it which you are perfectly entitled to do while we still have some freedom of speech left in this country.

Sometimes, just sometimes, it is nice to keep certain opinions to ourselves, or chose our words more carefully.

Quoted from Heisenberg
My one gripe would be the general understanding of what a 3rd kit is for. I think black and white should be the default kit away from home unless the home team a) wears stripes, b) has a predominantly black shirt, or c) has a predominantly white shirt. So basically the only time a 3rd kit is necessary is when the home team has any of those features and one of the colours is red, ruling out the 2nd kit.  But hear lies the problem - the 3rd kit is nearly all white (as in ‘c’ above), so how does that work?!


We wouldn't need a third strip if the second strip was a standard all-yellow.

It seems to be the norm now that teams wear second strips away from home.  You could argue that is to put players in a different frame of mind in the changing room before kick-off, to prepare for a mostly hostile crowd.  Let's be honest, though: it's for money-making marketing purposes.

It can't be environmentally-friendly to produce three new kits each season.

Absolutely pathetic that a grown adult would take to social media to slag off a kit designed by a child . This world never ceases to amaze me but this is low , very low !!!

Love the shirt and have pre ordered it. This will be my first third strip. Love the fact it was designed by a junior mariner and that all proceeds go to a great local charity. So, thanks to The Trust, Archie and the club!

Exactly well said like you have ordered too.
