This is Wednesday engaging with the community again - local band, local feel, home grown player leading the comms in Palmer... its taken a horrendous year to wake us up but this is good to see. And like the kits too Yeah. As someone who has been relentlessly negative about pretty much everything all summer, there was a nice little buzz this morning seeing that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Macron just haven’t nailed it for me. White back, poor collar, awful looking trim on sleeves and thin stripes. It looks more like a Colchester or Brighton shirt to me Shame as I absolutely loved the last two elev8 kit designs, imo the best ones since 2000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manchester_Owl Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 We should never wear red & white or pink. This is standard stuff. This is not to be confused with.... " Do I like the design?", yes it's nice. But don't put a badge on it. Or some homophobic/misogynistic nonsense. It's not to do with that either. Wednesday should never wear pink. I'm sure one year we were ask and there was uproar at the mere suggestion. All of a sudden, because of a very good promotional vid most seem to like it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG D Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Just been to see my Dad. 89 and his eyes are that bad that he stopped going to games a few years about 6 years ago. He asked me if owt was happening. I told him the new kit was out and that the away kit was pink. Dad: ‘Oh, f**king hell!’ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do people not understand about Wednesday shouldn't wear pink? The pigs wore it last season, and it's not about copying them that people dislike, it's because it's the colour of pigs. Remember the olden days when Wednesday had a poll on the official website to choose the colour of the kit, and it got taken down because all the pigs were voting for pink? Pink = pigs. I've taken loads today because of that shirt. Just keep replying it's salmon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Grandad Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 We definitely need to chase one of the big supermarkets for sponsorship, taking us back to the days of ASDA at Wembley. Here I've mocked up what the kit could look like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe how many have endorsed the Peppa piggy looking Wednesday strip. It looks great to me. My four-year-old son now wants a kit for the first time, as pink is his favourite colour. Even my 68-year-old dad likes it. It's not going to be to everyone's tastes - nothing ever is - but if the reason somebody doesn't like it is because pigs are pink and they're worried about some infantile name-calling from supporters of a team who themselves wore pink last season, well - and I'm trying really hard not be offensive here - they might want to confront their insecurities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night King Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 (edited) 2 lovely kits. The away one is probably my favourite ever away shirts. Won’t buy either because I’m not into wearing football shirts. Edited July 24, 2021 by Night King Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the thing though. My moan isn't against the design. This is a smart shirt and the black details are superb, the kit looks great. I wear similar colour t-shirts and shirts, so it's not a I don't like pink thing. I also don't care what United fans think. There are two issues with this shirt, it's as close to red as you will get (red and white mixed together). We will look like 10 pigs rolling around a muddy pitch, especially at the away stadiums we are going to this season. How immature of me to say the above, but would you be happy if next seasons away shirt is red? That's how I feel about Wednesday in pink. I think it goes against the traditions of the club. Blue and white home, yellow/black/purple away. If you want to do Wednesday in pink, no problems with occasional merchandise, just not the official strip. I think that because it's pink people are misconceiving this as a macho thing, but it's nothing to do with that, it's to do with traditions. Maybe I'm getting old.
