The9 Posted 26 May, 2013 Share Posted 26 May, 2013 (edited) I know there are a few kit threads around already, but I think there should be a definitive poll indicating whether Saints fans (the ones on here anyway), feel Saints should wear red and white stripes, plain shirts (that could be red as last season, or white), the sash kit which was so popular previously, or if they're not really bothered what kit the team wears. Mods, any chance of a poll with the question "In home matches, should Saints wear : * Stripes * Mainly one colour * Sash * Don't mind" Could be a useful pointer for opinion when the new shirts are launched. You may note that I'm trying to be as neutral as possible here so as not to skew results. A week should be long enough to get a decent cross-section ?

Wiggles31 Posted 26 May, 2013 Share Posted 26 May, 2013 I know they would never go for the sash but that was one of my favourite kits. So distinctive and unique to other teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint_Ash Posted 26 May, 2013 Share Posted 26 May, 2013 Like the sash and unlike many others I really like the current home shirt, stripes are our most used shirt in times past but I don't see why we have to always have stripes, I prefer us to be unique whether it's with stripes or not.

rshephard3 Posted 26 May, 2013 Share Posted 26 May, 2013 Sash great as a one off tribute to our heritage, anniversary shirts etc. But year in year out stripes for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Chalet Posted 26 May, 2013 Share Posted 26 May, 2013 I really don't mind. Grew up in an era of Rank Xerox, centenary shirt and the Hummell shirt so I don't have such an affinity to stripes. The sash was great as a one off, and shouldn't / won't be repeated. If you want a nod to history how about quarters of red and white? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohio Saint Posted 26 May, 2013 Share Posted 26 May, 2013 Stripes or sash for me. I hope we are going to be a force next season, and would love to attach some honour to the stripey teams. Sash is good also for historic reasons and identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saints foreva Posted 26 May, 2013 Share Posted 26 May, 2013 Stripes. Sash was good for a one off, this season shirt is terrible, probably only sold the amount it did because of a return to the Premier League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNSUN Posted 26 May, 2013 Share Posted 26 May, 2013 I have to say I liked the Sash - my favourite kit. That said I reckon it'll be between stripes and how it is currently - and stripes (or two-tone like the Air Florida kit) wins that vote, not that I have any major problems with the current shirt, it's just I grew up with Saints wearing stripes.

Saint Martini Posted 26 May, 2013 Share Posted 26 May, 2013 + 1, a nod to our history and differentiates us a bit. This is exactly what I thought when I voted sash. We've played in stripes almost every season since I started following Saints but that doesn't mean that you have to continue with it just because. We have several different designs that can make us stand out more and that also have a historic connection with the club. I'd like the club to go out and have the sash for a few seasons, so that that design becomes the one people identify us with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpsaint Posted 26 May, 2013 Share Posted 26 May, 2013 I actually liked this seasons shirt, but then I like it when we mix the kits up a bit so it's not just a variation of stripes every time we change. 2 of my favourite shirts are the centenary one and the 99-01 home kit which barely counts as stripes either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manuel Posted 26 May, 2013 Share Posted 26 May, 2013 Didn't like the sash, looked dull and dated. Indifferent about the all-red. Would like to see us in stripes again next season and hoping for a Sunderland and Stoke relegation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Who? Posted 27 May, 2013 Share Posted 27 May, 2013 I think one year stripes, then one year with a different shirt. Even better if they had the shirt for 2 seasons like they used to! No going back on this one now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnTheCross Posted 27 May, 2013 Share Posted 27 May, 2013 Rank Xerox - but only when we're going for that Champions League spot in it, in a couple of seasons. Wouldn't want my childhood memories tarnished Beyond that, it can get mixed up a bit, just as the club have done in the past. I'm not a huge fan of just the stripes though.
