Nero Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 2 minutes ago, Wild Will Smith said: Not really. Factor in the feel good factor of the league position, the playoff run, the money spent on players, upward curve in number of season tickets sold, better access to shirts for sale compared to the shower of shît we normally get in the club shop etc. All adds up. Tag on a return to stripes and chances are sales would rocket. But some people are too afraid of upsetting the Chairman by speaking honestly. I suspect like a few others of a certain age for the first 8 years of me watching Wednesday we didnt have stripes so i havent got the 'the only way is blue stripes' vibe that some others clearly have. In general plain shirts sell better than stripes. Thats a fact. So honestly i dont give a shxt as long as its a good design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 In general do old folk who remember not having stripes for a bit still buy and wear shirts? Surprised by that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they had a new striped shirt it couldn't be made to look much different to the thousands of old striped shirts. The old ones would come out of the cupboard season after season ...why bother buying a new one?? Well it'll be 2 seasons without me buying any shirt so he's fecked up with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheffield_dave Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I really like this seasons shirt and the all blue with white sleeves "Arsenal" shirt has been a guilty pleasure of mine for years. I'm too young to have ever seen the team wear it, but it's absolutely a "classic" Sheffield Wednesday shirt. It looks smart and there are some truly iconic photos of Wednesday's history with that shirt. I guess I'm part of the problem but.. I approve. Can't wait to see it.

Mr Farrell Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 If we like Ipswich so much, we may as well get Mick McCarthy in too. 2 successive seasons with Ipswich kits. Happy days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birley Owl 1867 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Gateway to all blue for 2018/19. flipping wonderful. If he wanted us to look like Birmingham why didn't he just buy them? Tbf it'll be all over in a few years anyway, he'll get bored of us by some point and bin us off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevtheowl Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 If true, it's a brilliant looking kit and will bring back childhood memories. It was was my very first Wednesday kit. UTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a right old mess. I've heard that bloke from the band will be hemming 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy days. Just shows the size of the man's ego. Tradition tossed away on a flipping whim. Rich man's plaything. Yep it's a slightly irrational reaction - it's a just a shirt isn't it? - but no more irrational than people saying we have to play in blue - it's just a colour isn't it? Imagine if Ashley had tried to do something similar at Newcastle. Or if Dave Allen had done it here. Rotten decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nevthelodgemoorowl Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 In the 60's there wasn't an eye lid batted when we went for the Arsenal reversible, it went down quite well. Many talk of the oldies resistance to change ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
