From what i was told last night by someone at the club down on pitchside - That design was the best of a very bad lot and was designed by a wife of one of the directors - God only knows what the others were like

Is this wife a designer? or in fashion?..... If so she needs to quit asap!

Red is not our colour, i've always wondered why we can never just reverse the home strip.... White or Black with alternate V would suit everyone!

I used to buy both home and away shirts every season, up until a couple of years ago when the away shirts became ridiculous colours and designs. To be honest now i dont even bother with the home shirt either, but thats simply because i cannot afford it (deposit on house to save for, wedding and all that)

All you need now is someone to marry you, and they are not allowed to be inflatable!

Poor choice of colour, as far too many of our opponents play in red, not a lot of thought gone into it, as with many others I would much prefer to see either a black or white shirt, the same design as the home shirt would have been fine.

Was just saying that t'other day, I'm pretty sure someone, somewhere could make a reasonable design reversing the 'traditional' colours of amber, black and white.

Congrats for the forthcoming nuptials btw (and good luck)

I was given to understand the colour is meant to be in keeping with the Heroes fundraiser promotional material. If so, and with everything else going on in the world today, I don't give a flying **** if we play in red especially as some clubs have already played in pink for charity and we've even had a shirt in Fev's 2 Blues and white.

The cause far outweighs any issues as petty as colour imo.
