buctootim Posted 28 May, 2012 Share Posted 28 May, 2012 Would be more 'Saints' with more white in the overall mix - not necessarily wider stripes but white trim around collar sleeves and bottom of shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djharvey Posted 28 May, 2012 Share Posted 28 May, 2012 I'm bored so back on the kit templates. Going by the rumours and the ITK on here, this is supposedly what it'll look like. God help Cortese if he releases this... Quite like that! Think it could be a big seller after initial reservations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 28 May, 2012 Share Posted 28 May, 2012 The person was probably making a statement, after all Adam Lallana is a premier league player now, he achieved this wearing the current shirt. The underlying issue here is that you are actually quite cross about it, there are people out there who can help you with your issues. They were at least AS likely to be just making the statement that they don't pay attention to the shirt numbers, I think. I'm not that bothered, it's their problem if they want to go around looking silly. As I said, we weren't even promoted at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 28 May, 2012 Share Posted 28 May, 2012 Well it looks like its going to be if you like it or not. And if we do well in it everyone will remember it. Do you think people would still love the Keegan kit if it had been worn in the era relegation stuggles and worn by the likes of Gordon Hobson and Gerry Forest? I would, I loved the amber and black version worn by Newport County in their Third Division mediocrity as well... though admittedly that was a bit of a peak for them.

The9 Posted 28 May, 2012 Share Posted 28 May, 2012 I think I'm going to stick to pondering the away kit. I would like the reverse of that, just to readdress the red/white imbalance. It would also extend the life of my yellow shirt, hopefully. Now there's a shirt that might have been worth gambling some Prem numbers on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think people would still love the Keegan kit if it had been worn in the era relegation stuggles and worn by the likes of Gordon Hobson and Gerry Forest? It's a fair point, most of the fondly remembered shirts are associated with success. Interesting that during our years of stunning attacking play under Chris Nichol we wore some truly malignant Hummel kits... despite the players who wore those shirts they are certainly not well loved. And yes, my own personal opinion matters not, yet it seems i'm not alone in finding it a bit too literally sticking to the 'come on you reds.....' chant.

CB Fry Posted 28 May, 2012 Share Posted 28 May, 2012 Just as a little side note, I think a few of you may like this design! Quite like that. Don't like the red with white pinstripes thing. Hope we don't go down that route, never like the plain red kits, although loved the Denmark Hummell one, which did have quite a lot of red. For our first season back I hope we wear stripes. It's our thing. Give it a couple of seasons - say when we are Champions League regulars with a fanbase stretching to Truro - before we start "experimenting". Oh, and the kit should be - red and white stripes, black shorts, white socks. To much buggering about with that in recent times for my liking. Not red socks. Not black socks. Stripy socks at a push. But white really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Mockles Posted 29 May, 2012 Share Posted 29 May, 2012 Like that kit. Quite liked an old mock up shown on here that was very much like the old Rank Xerox kit. That was a classic. Still have the Saints Hummel and Coventry Hummel (FA Cup winning) kits. Loved that Danish style kit. Kid at school came in with it one day and I thought it was the best kit I'd ever seen!!

alpine_saint Posted 29 May, 2012 Share Posted 29 May, 2012 (edited) Here's a few I mocked up last year: Mes a like these.

The9 Posted 29 May, 2012 Share Posted 29 May, 2012 It's the last year of our Umbro contract, they already have a number of shirts with this template, I don't understand why Cortese hasn't seen the love for the Rank Xerox and given us a version of this Hearts kit from 2010 : or something in a "Winchester" like this Wrexham shirt, with white in the middle and the "tapes" in black : Just for the hell of it btw, I found one of last season's kit threads when googling : http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://geckosaint.com/SFC-kit-history-22.png&imgrefurl=http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php%3F28897-Time-for-a-quot-new-kit-quot-thread/page3&usg=__z7x94IM-mmCDQysjLzIQSqKVen8=&h=264&w=604&sz=9&hl=en&start=18&zoom=1&tbnid=gcr1V5_5UeG7hM:&tbnh=59&tbnw=135&ei=-brET5zjN46p8QPIwYG5Cg&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dumbro%2Bwinchester%2Bwrexham%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26safe%3Dactive%26sa%3DN%26gbv%3D2%26tbm%3Disch&um=1&itbs=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlakeySFC Posted 29 May, 2012 Share Posted 29 May, 2012 I am referring to Which I think are all pretty decent, apart from the long sleeved shirts were too short in the sleeve. Think the 2006-08 (S) shirts were the worst ever. They were terrible to wear, looked like ****e and were poorly made with shockingly cheap materials. The only one I liked was the 2006/07 Black away shirt as I thought it was rather smart, it was awful to wear as it made you sweat like a fat man rowing a boat, but at least it was decent. Really hope we stay with Umbro after 2012/13 as I think there kits have (on the whole) been excellent compared with the latter years of the (S) days. Think the new adidas low-rent kits that everyone and there uncle are getting in the Prem these days are nowhere near the quality of recent Umbro shirts IMHO. Just look at WBA/Stoke/Swansea kits, absolutely terrible and the same exact template on each. Sunderland will also have Adidas kits next season, and Bolton too (in the FLC). Only us and Man City will wear Umbro kits next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joneth Posted 30 May, 2012 Share Posted 30 May, 2012 Just as a little side note, I think a few of you may like this design! Anyone consider the possibility of rather than a double white stripe in the middle it may just be normal alternate stripes, meaning one white sleeve one red?

Saint Fan CaM Posted 31 May, 2012 Share Posted 31 May, 2012 Re-designed to have a white sponsor and a plain white collar. One all red, another red with white cuffs and another with white sleeves and red cuffs. Both of these are great and in fact I actually prefer the white sleeves as there's more white involved - clearly there's the Arse connection bit it's quite different for us - will cause a stir beyond the club I would imagine. I would buy these shirts f'sure as they are different (I like different) and I didn't buy last years for obvious reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
