Past Member Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I was brought up believing there was 2 rules regarding our kit. (I know it was broken for a short time in the 1960s) 1: Home Kit of Blue & White Stripes and 2: No Red on any kit whatsoever Chansiri has clearly broken rule 1. (despite the white pin stripes visible from less than 10 feet away) Would we accept a trade off with Chansiri, allowing him to break rule 2, but respecting rule 1. Option A would give us back our stripes but allow DC to have a 2nd kit in the Thailand flag, honoring King Bhumibol Option B would mean another near all blue kit, but with a traditional SWFC 2nd Kit Which option would you choose?

aeroswfc Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) If we have red there would be an uproar. Option A home Kit and option B away kit. Edited January 11, 2017 by aeroswfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've had red many times, albeit sponsor logos. Don't see it as an issue. As others have said "Give stripes back!" This season is the 1st home shirt I've not had in 30+ yrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveyboy66 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) Option A couldn't give a throw about the away kit as long as it doesn't have red in it apart from the sponsors name Edited January 11, 2017 by daveyboy66 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlofOliveGrove Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Don't mind Option A really. ...and I like our home kit this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I'd like us to have a traditional Wednesday home kit but a retro one looking like one of our title winning kits, and without all the modern tacky sponsorship ruining it. Got a feeling though that we might have the half and half kit the team wore when we won the Football Alliance League. However I'd prefer one of our old Football League Division 1 title winning kits. The 2nd kit would be apt if it was yellow and light blue, like some of our classic away kits of the past. The 3rd one I hope we have something different but old fashioned. My preferred choice for the 3rd kit is similar to your Thailand flag designed kit but white, black and blue based upon a famous Inter Milan 1960's away kit that looks a bit like a Sampdoria kit.

Timinkent Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 A seems good. This years kit is smart would like this years with white arms throw back to the sixties. As for the away strip I think DC has the right to do what he likes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many kits are inspired by country flags, so it wouldn't be a poppy issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we want a kit that represents a flag or coat of arms then have it based upon Sheffield's coat of arms/colours not Thailand's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
