james o connor Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Not saying anybody has a reason to lie but I would be shocked if the vw promotion season one or last seasons for starters did not sell more . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think this kit is one of best we've had. The one kit I'm not keen on is the black away shirt, much prefer the white one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortlandOwl Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 When you think about it, not many teams play in blue and white stripes in England. Thats what made us stand out from the crowd a bit. Now we're just Ipswich, Cardiff, Birmingham, Chesterfield, Oldham etc. The list of nonentities just goes on. Stripes back please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years of hurt before hand. We could have sold play off tshirts as the kit and everyone would have rushed out to buy it. But they left the release date that long people just wanted to buy one. I can accept change for a year but longer? no thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Don't mind it as a one off. We have had similar as one offs in history but the stripes are part of the club identity. I hope they come back and then you will likely see a real best seller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine this in part is down to manufacturer's contract; both kits have to worn X number of times each season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNS Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Haven't read the whole thread, so sorry if this has already been suggested, but... 150th anniversary kit should be designed in collaboration with (Pete) McKee. Or at least a limited collectors shirt to coincide... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this current kit is popular due to it's novelty value, then it opens the doors for any old design (presumably blue with a bit of white thrown in) to be passed off as a Wednesday kit just so long as it sports the (alternative) Owl logo It's all so unnecessary There is plenty of scope for variety when designing the away kits (because we seem to need two of those these days) Our traditional colours, and identity, ought to be cherished as well as fiercely protected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh, well, the stripes aren't big enough, hate it The stripes aren't right on that (Porto) shirt, we need a middle stripe That middle stripe is off centre, i can't stand it the two stripes either side of the centre stripe mean you can hardly read the sponsor, looks daft. IMAGINE if everyone would just support the club. Were previous generations this precious about their dresswear? What did you all do when they brought that random one out in the mid to late 90s? Another who dredged up one of the worst kits in our history to justify the current abomination.This kit wasn't liked much at the time, and the non conformity to traditional stripes was mentioned. However whilst I don't like this kit, (although bought it & still have it), it does just about respect our blue & white striped history. The current one doesn't. Chansiri's arrogance got the better of him this time. Hopefully he will reverse this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
