As long as it's blue I couldn't give 2 kahoots if it's got stripes on or not. Blue???? Why on earth are you bothered about the colour, it'e only a friggin football shirt, not worth getting all worked out about the colour chuffin scheme. I couldn't gibe 2 kahoots about the colour. Get a grip West Its just a football shirt - who cares what colour it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Ron's Sovereign Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 So there's some that aren't bothered what we wear as along as it's blue and white. And there are the ones that are passionate we keep the stripes. So..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kit has nothing to do with our anniversary. Using our anniversary is shameful IMO. Showing total lack of respect for the club & fans. My shoes won't be coming off in the car park, but I've lost respect for Chansiri, no transfer fee, no matter how big, will change that for me. Lots of fans have expressed they would like a break from stripes. DC has listended to those fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when last season's kit came out, there were loads that did like it, me included. I didn't hear a single person slagging it off at matches, only on here, including that numbskull that said the revealing of last season's kit was the "worst day in his 40 years of watching Wednesday"!!! If that was his worst day, he's had a very charmed life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The apathy toward Chansiri changing our kit to be all blue, caught me by surprise too. I think many thought it would be a one season affair, and folk definitely thought it wouldn't be repeated for our 150th year. Chansiri wouldn't put the queston to season ticket holders/members in a poll, because he knows what the result would be. He's gone ahead and done it anyway. Bit dramatic the worse day in 40s years, but i know where he's coming from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The numerous shirts still in the shop tells me otherwise. The previous shirts were a struggle to get hold of at times after Christmas.

areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 (edited) 5 hours ago, zzmdu said: We don't have a tradition of varying our shirt design away from blue and white stripes. Like all Striped/Hooped teams (inc Celtic) width have varied. Only TWO kits since 1890 years completely did away with clearly visible blue and white stripes- : last seasons and the 1965-72 * the 1995 kit pushed it to the limit IMO. You can't simply rewrite our history. I realize, you've added in the evenly (not sure why). But here are our kits over the last 50 years, prior to CC. Despite the rubbish spouted on here, there is no fine history of deviating away from Blue & White stripes, just the very odd feck up - being used to justify CCs desire to get rid of stripes. So in the 50 years before Chansiri, we played in non-striped shirts for nigh on a fifth of the time? That tallies with what I said. He's not destroying our traditions here - he's drawing on them. I'm not attempting to rewrite history; just pointing out that we've played in non-striped shirts before. You see them as 'feck ups'; others see them as decent Wednesday shirts. As for the non-evenly striped thing, last season's kit has stripes if that distinction doesn't matter. But then those late 80s shirts don't look like 'traditional' Wednesday shirts to me...

Paddyowl Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 86 pages and we're still no wiser. Stripes or no stripes you have to say that the club are dragging their heels. I wonder what page this thread is on when the kit is released...........I'll go for 126. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
