Next Season's Home Shirt - Supporters Choice

[grecian-near-hell]

The club seem to be making a big deal about thanking Carpetright for allowing this vote to go ahead. Since when does a shirt sponsor dictate what our kit looks like?

Since when they paid their money perhaps, along certain boundaries, look at the purple kit we had when FLYBE were sponsors

Ex trainee Stuart Smith I believe, kneeling next to Lee Annunziata who was a year or two above me at school.

As for the designs, I quite like the thin stripes but will probably be in the minority.

Stuart Smith it is indeed

I'm not sure "making a big deal" is fair, but this is surely better than us just being told only when the designs are launched.

I think that in the past the shirt designs have largely been determined by one or more Club employees in discussion with the kit suppliers. Joma usually offer a choice from fairly standard templates to control costs. I'd hope the manager was involved, and I assume the Board rubber stamp the decision.

The Trust Board were not involved in deciding them when I was a a member, though I vaguely recall being shown the chosen design once. They do have a veto on any change in the home shirt colours but not the shorts/socks or the away or third ones.

(BTW I have never understood what is gained by all the coy secrecy and hoopla over announcing the new designs. Does this really boost sales?)

No.1 for me out of those, I like the thicker stripes and that they are on the back but I also prefer the neck and sleeves of no.3

No3 fat stripes are better, the back of opt 1 looks silly!

Jeez, everybody thinks that they are at the "Pick 'n' Mix" counter in the sweet shop !
As a previous poster said these are three standard Joma designs, you get to pick ONE !
Is it any wonder that Club hasn't always bothered to do this, when you get responses like this !

Seemed to have worked for that lot at the other (inferior) SJP all those years ago.

 

[Super Ronnie Jepson]

Maybe Carpetright were planning something along these lines and have agreed not to.

Can't you tell it's nearly Xmas - Yum Yum !

Must be a family taste then. What I would like to see on any of the kits, and I realise this isn't going to happen, is to have stripes front and back. I don't like the big block of red on the back. I also go along with the calls for a return to black shorts.
