wireframebox Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 Are the people in the back rows just generic faces? If not, who's stood behind Jack Cork and Danny Fox?.. ...I think that might be Ali Dia 4th behind Jose Fonte!?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 We didn't have a standard red and white striped kit for the entire 1980's. Which included the most successful period in the clubs league history. We are all aware of that, but as I posted a few days ago, I'm knocking 40 and as an adult I've only seen Saints not playing in stripes at home in the sash season, so you have to expect a bit of backlash.

hypochondriac Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 TBH I don't like it but it's only a kit for a season so I'm not going to lose any sleep about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Diamond Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 behind cork is steve bennet.. the pitch announcer person Oh Christ you're right. Sorry but I think that's a poor idea and it's not a kit I'll be buying. Very disappointing - I'm just glad I didn't hype the whole thing up unlike hundreds of others. If I had, I'd be suicidal right about now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ART Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 Let's face it. The Saints that most of us have known all our lives died in 2005. We are now in a new age, with a new Saints created in the image and dreams of Liebherr and Cortese. Can anyone not support their dream, their achievements? The team is dead, long live the team. Into the future and put the past to rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why only include your adult years? So as a child you would have grown up starting to love Saints and they didn't play in stripes. It was only as an adult that they started to again.

Badger Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 Is this thread to alert us to the fact the kit has been released (and is therefore "out"), or a campaign to get rid of it ("out") as it is so awful ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webby Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 Well that saves price of 3 kits for this year. HATE the strip we are red AND white not red!!!!! And yet we've never sang 'come on you whites'.

doubleonothing Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 Is Kelvin wearing skins this season for us then? He's in the video on Saints player now, but you only see his head and a sleeve in another shot as he is behind someone else. Looks like a black keepers kit (possibly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank's cousin Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 Is Kelvin wearing skins this season for us then? He will be going completey commando, trialling a new patent protected third 'glove' which featers a single 'finger' and pouch - the EPL have approved this as with new Goal line technology, there shjould be no confusion when the balls cross the line. Kelvin was heard to comment ' will take some getting used to, but I guess some fans will love it, some hate it, and I may fee devensively a little 'exposed' untill we sign a new CB, but I heard that we could only get Ramos if we played in red so should be worth it' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebastian firefly Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 Not bad as far as kit's go but that in no way represents Southampton FC. Bit of a shame really. It would have been ok with black shorts and white socks... this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was only as an adult that they started to again. I wasn't a Saints fan until I first moved to Southampton aged 18. Why labour the point ? The non-striped shirts are massively in the minority anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chin Strain Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 We didn't have a standard red and white striped kit for the entire 1980's. Which included the most successful period in the clubs league history. OK, thanks.....I think we may have had one mainly red shirt with white sleeves, but still had black shorts (I think). This is a much, much bigger departure from that....or don't you agree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 I don't know what the big fuss is about to be honest. It's not vile, it's not a travesty and it's not going against our tradition. It's a football kit, which actually looks quite smart. It's a change and we all know that typical human beings don't like change, personally I think it's to be embraced. Pretty refreshing, not bad a tall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sussexsaint Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 I love the promotional campaign , lots of lee who I am sure will be significant for us next year and the stripes poster is epic. THe team need everyone at SMS behind them to do their jobs. A real sign of unity that would have some to the near east very jealous indeed. Shocked when I saw it initially but it's growing on me, and we don't seem to keep kits very long anyway. At least we won't look identical to stoke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 Yup, there we go, Blackburn's 2013 GK shirt is the same as the Norway one (though not the one they wore against England recently): We'll probably have that style, depends what colours they have in it. Here's the possible keeper kit for those who wanted to see. Maybe different colour, definitely won't have a Blackburn badge on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 29 June, 2012 Share Posted 29 June, 2012 It's fine, but it's change, which is why people will react. It's human nature, no one likes change, but it happens to all of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
