forever a red and white Posted 6 April, 2011 Share Posted 6 April, 2011 Heard from someone well connected with Umbro that one of the designs for next season's shirt would be that we would keep the sash and have the sponsor underneath the badge, much like they have when the 'Saints Foundation' has appeared on shirts. Nothing for certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doddisalegend Posted 6 April, 2011 Share Posted 6 April, 2011 I think I'd like to go back to red and white stripes if I'm honest. This years kit was a nice change for the 125 year but somehow saints not in red and white stripes seems wrong IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpine_saint Posted 6 April, 2011 Share Posted 6 April, 2011 Dont see why we MUST go back to stripes. I quite like the idea in the orginal post, but would definitely change the colour of the shorts to red and socks to white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Tender Posted 6 April, 2011 Share Posted 6 April, 2011 IMO the current sash kit is the best we've ever had.. Apart from Man City copying it for their away kit, we're different and original.

hamster Posted 6 April, 2011 Share Posted 6 April, 2011 A nice broderie anglais panel would be nice. How about the names of all forum members embroidered into the fabric too?

forever a red and white Posted 6 April, 2011 Author Share Posted 6 April, 2011 Of course it is probably one of many designs. Cortese has previously said that the design of the new shirt was almost complete early in the season, which makes me think we are either inclined to stay with the sash as a ready made desgin or follow the Sunderland kit which has been released rather early as well.

Saint_clark Posted 6 April, 2011 Share Posted 6 April, 2011 If this is done from a marketing view point, it's a big mistake - no-one's going to buy the sash shirt with a sponsor on it when they can get the plain one a few weeks before. But if they're doing it just because it looks fantastic and they want it to be "the" shirt of the new Saints era, then fair play. The only reason i'm not happy with keeping the sash is because we can't seem to get away from the come on you reds chant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Under Weststand Posted 6 April, 2011 Share Posted 6 April, 2011 I liked the sash shirt and thought it was a good idea for the 125th anniversary, but I wouldn't like to see it kept on past this season. I hope we return to the red & white stripes, but that could well prove a problem with the new sponsor, probably have to have a white panel on the front and looks tacky? Maybe we should go back to the Keegan era with the large white stripe down the middle Rank Xerox/Air Florida type, would probably be the best compromise.

Nothing for certain. Stripes are returning and away shirt is yellow with blue trim in a Brazil style. Home shirt available May, Away shirt July. Sponsors logo makes shirt looks naff allgedly, better without but what shirt doesn't? Current home shirt best selling Saints shirt of all time, again unsurprising.

Not only are the majority of the guff, but none of them will actually be right either. This then leads to the one of two that might actually be alright to be deemed better than the one that they do actually come up with which only results in people getting all annoyed and depressed when the one they wanted doesn't get made.

sadoldgit Posted 6 April, 2011 Share Posted 6 April, 2011 Dont see why we MUST go back to stripes. I quite like the idea in the orginal post, but would definitely change the colour of the shorts to red and socks to white. Because it just ain't Sants without the stripes and black shorts Alps. And the sash is pants. And there is nothing "lucky" about the kit. The results are down to the players and management, not the shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Le God Posted 6 April, 2011 Share Posted 6 April, 2011 Because it just ain't Sants without the stripes and black shorts Alps. So were Saints, not Saints before 1950? They didn't wear black shorts until 1950. That is 65 years out of 125 years - over 50% of the clubs history without black shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
