Saint Fan CaM Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 100% polyester usually means 100% sweaty - hope it's not like the cheapo shirts that don't breath. :cool: It does look fantastic though I think I can wait just a little bit longer before forking out my £40.
trousers Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Have just seen a photo of someone wearing one and the collar slightly obscures a small part of the saints badge it would seem. My eyesight or valid observation?
trousers Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Can someone comment on sizes. I normally go for an XL as I like my shirts a little loose. I'm a 38-40 chest. Will be ordering by post so anyone out there of a similar build canvadvise? Cheers
whiteleySaint30 Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 I was number 642. Got one for myself and 14 month old boy. The smallest they do for kids is 23 years but he will grom into it. They only had 250 of the limited edition scarfs which was a shame. Anyone got a one? if so could you post a picture of it. Why much were they charging for it? I must admit Ive neaver been so exctied about buying a shirt, why did I queue for 3 hours for something you will be able to get hold of tomorrow without a queue!! Very clever marketing I suppose.
Ewell Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 The world cup is on you boring ****ers. Why go and queue up for a replica shirt that you can nip into town for early doors tomorrow. Sad, sad people!
channonball Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Have the queues died down now. Went along earlier but I had 600 people in front of me.

Matthew Le God Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 The world cup is on you boring ****ers. Why go and queue up for a replica shirt that you can nip into town for early doors tomorrow. Sad, sad people! They are showing the World cup games on the screens in the Chapel concourses as you wait.
Tractor_Saint Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Waiting in the huge queue for names on the back but I've got mine!!
Tractor_Saint Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 No idea if this will work via tapatalk ! A pic...
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Sorry for the focus in the first shot, just a cheapie camera phone! The obverse of the Umbro logo carries these words: The Saints 125th Anniversary Season 2010 - 2011. The scarf is a straightforward red/white bar type with this logo at each side and the obverse:
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Cortese out! Pictures above. Scarf was £7.00
Badger Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Good photos. The shirt does indeed look good,but a lot of its appeal is undone by the hideous badge.
Joesaint Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Love the shirt and love the badge, they have done really well to keep the prices the same as its so good. Lovin my new saints shirt and feel a bit like a kid again. COYS
SaintRobbie Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 With the collar it is similar in design to the new England shirt, making it quite like a polo shirt. Its a nice casual shirt to wear.
negium Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 was numbers 201 & 202. got my shirt. loving it decided against the scarf though as the white paanels actually look quite pink
Colinjb Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Back in Cov now, utterly chuffed with the shirt, it's a stunner. It feels almost too plain to be a football shirt in this era, but I can certainly live with that!
saintwarwick Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 The world cup is on you boring ****ers. Why go and queue up for a replica shirt that you can nip into town for early doors tomorrow. Sad, sad people! I queued for nine hours on Monday for world cup tickets does that make me sad? Grow up you miserable git, people don't mind queueing for things they want, just because you don't like it doesn't make them saddo's.
saintwarwick Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Good photos. The shirt does indeed look good,but a lot of its appeal is undone by the hideous badge. The badge is good, certainly not hideous. Why do you think it's hideous?

dune Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 If the Sash was an 8 inch thick Red stripe straight down the middle it would look much much better.
Colinjb Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Did you pick one up for me :wink: Now, had you asked. Incidentally, if anyone wants my 125 anniversary scarf the bidding begins at £40.......
Bourno Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Got one for me and the whole kit for the nipper. No scarves at 14:30 which was a bit of a shame. They had also run out of cheese and pickle sarnies so had to have egg mayo. £1.90 for a bottle of water (I bought 12 at Tesco this moning for £1.99 - just a shame I didn't take one with me.)
Colinjb Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Got one for me and the whole kit for the nipper. No scarves at 14:30 which was a bit of a shame. Yeah, they were going quite rapidly. Some people where buying up to 4 each at a time for people who couldn't be bothered heading down there! They really should have had a cap on the number you could buy each, it wasn't like there would have been a problem shifting them.
SO16_Saint Posted 12 June, 2010 Author Posted 12 June, 2010 number 730 odd. just got it home, and it's great....apart from the stitching at the back is not done correctly so gotta take it back tomorrow. it IS lovely though!
Saint Malc Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 100% polyester usually means 100% sweaty - hope it's not like the cheapo shirts that don't breath. :cool: It does look fantastic though I think I can wait just a little bit longer before forking out my £40. I paid £45 for my long sleeved version.

Pink ticket? By the time I had left they had gone into their second book of raffle tickets.
SO16_Saint Posted 12 June, 2010 Author Posted 12 June, 2010 Pink ticket? By the time I had left they had gone into their second book of raffle tickets. yeah, think it was pink. got in there at 3... they must've sold over 2000 today i reckon
moon monkey Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Are the fittings like last seasons shirt? Are they a tight fit so you need to go one size higher?
SO16_Saint Posted 12 June, 2010 Author Posted 12 June, 2010 Are the fittings like last seasons shirt? Are they a tight fit so you need to go one size higher? I'd say at least 1 size up. Im normally a medium in tshirts but bought a large, but seeing as i need to return it i will change for an XL
SO16_Saint Posted 12 June, 2010 Author Posted 12 June, 2010 :pwas 94th :smt004 number 125 should've got theirs for free
Turkish Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 (edited) it's 100% polyester , but it's a lovely light ,airy fabric....and the crest looks great on it too no they aren't, but they have introduces a XS mens, and being a lady myself who has just bought one, i have to say that the fit is very good, shapely and not tight across the bazookas......i'm a size 12-14 in normal clothes and a medium fit perfectly.....i iz one happy lady!! the atmosphere was great down there (about a 30-45 minute wait, but thats ok, it meant that the shop was not crowded, there was no pushing or aggro between people , so it all made for a really nice experience) You going to opt it on for your boyfriend when you are in the sack? Edited 12 June, 2010 by Turkish
niceandfriendly Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 That badge looks really nice on the shirt. So much better than on it's own. I may wait until the away kit is released before I buy the new shirt, I have a feeling that one is going to be lovely too.
Tractor_Saint Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 A few more photos... A few more pics on my flickr here (and full size pics of the above cut down ones): http://www.flickr.com/photos/tractor_saint/
Toomer Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 It did, until I tried the shrt on! 4XL it is then! 3XL for me:)
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 3XL for me:) You, not so, FB! see you soon!
Badvoc Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Will we still be singing 'Come On You Reds' next season then? Maybe 'Come on You Whites'? This white with red sash business just doesn't sit well.
dune Posted 12 June, 2010 Posted 12 June, 2010 Will we still be singing 'Come On You Reds' next season then? Maybe 'Come on You Whites'? This white with red sash business just doesn't sit well. We are the sash, we are the sash, and we do dash and we do pass, we are the sash, we are the sash, lets all get mashed lets all get mashed.
Liquidshokk Posted 13 June, 2010 Posted 13 June, 2010 I bet i'm probably the first person to have ruined their shirt already :-S rum and coke all down the front and a hole, presumably from a cigarette at party last night.... Not good. Oh well, I'll replace it when they come down in price as it's a nice shirt.
bender Posted 13 June, 2010 Posted 13 June, 2010 awwwww dammit, i really want one, finances are tight, so gonna have to wait a while, first time i've been so bothered that i've had to wait for years Teach you to spend all your money on fags
bender Posted 13 June, 2010 Posted 13 June, 2010 Haha you are hilarious The lady has foolishly attempted to join the conversation with a wild and dangerous opinion of her own. What half baked drivel! See how the men look at her with utter contempt.

Not good. Oh well, I'll replace it when they come down in price as it's a nice shirt. It crossed my mind that the white background is not really 'spilt Guinness down the front' friendly or practical. Still never mind, I am probably too old to wear one or buy one for myself - late 40's- and the young badgers are too young to drink Guinness ( although there is always the food down the front,or vomit on the way home factor to consider).

saintquin Posted 13 June, 2010 Posted 13 June, 2010 Will we still be singing 'Come On You Reds' next season then? Maybe 'Come on You Whites'? This white with red sash business just doesn't sit well. How about, Come On You Saints? :smt083:smt083:smt083
Lets B Avenue Posted 14 June, 2010 Posted 14 June, 2010 i would have preferred my 1st sighting of the new shirt not to have been the one modelled by Granty at The Rose Bowl this afternoon.
