Reggie Perrin Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 You've got to worry when the St Mirren fans aren't even nominating this as their worst: Actually not a bad idea but it is a bit cheap looking and as for that abomination of a sponsor logo..

Arch Stanton Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 These two efforts are horrific, especially the white and peach/orange effort, no idea who thought that was a good idea. Nothing ironic about that shirt sponsor at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the change kit from the "bib" season was actually worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranaldo Bairn Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 I can't believe it's not been put up yet, but here's the winner. Modelled by our second best winger that season. The rumour is that Chairman George Fulston's daughter designed it. When Alex Totten took over at New Year, he binned it straight away and we wore the red/blue thin stripes top for the rest of a dreadful season. A season which was saved by a wonderful, heartstopping cup run, and cruelly denied by an evil, corrupt and positively heinous refereeing decision in the final. Fun fact: I had my first date with my wife that very evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed with the white and peach number but the "deckchair" is a personal favourite of mine....still have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one was mentioned earlier in the thread. Can't find a better picture. I like it and still have it (well, my big brother's one which fits me now). Cheers Stu, I couldn't find a decent enough pic of the 'paint run' one earlier! Although I've got to disagree about 'the bib', I loved that shirt. First home shirt I had, and apart from the thin stripes (would look better in thicker stripes) was smart as a carrot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 As fascinating as that discussion was it had nothing to do with hideous strips. And, just so we're all clear, those kind of terms are not acceptable on P&B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't a terrible strip and a nice idea although it didn't work all that well. What was more galling was the decent strip the yellow covered up- it was the year of the Wylde strip. Our fans hate yellow strips, although I thought the one we had back in 13/14 was a belter and far better than the orange and blue efforts we get. The current away top is horrible and seems to have been ditched by the club. Last time we used it? 4-1 horsing from Livi.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 I'm not actually sure that's the worst. I give you the Traffic Sign kit made by le Coq Sportif and modelled by Andy Smith.Squares of grey and black, some (but only some) of which had red triangles. I'm sure at the time it was the most expensive club shirt in Britain too - I think it went for £44.99 when most were still £39.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think it's pretty ace! Eta: Ivo doing a 'Simmy' there? It was certainly around that time. We wore it the season before but not sure if we kept it for that next season in the Premier. My first exposure to Ivo was a friendly against West Ham. My pal and I got in just after KO and missed the lineups etc. We were astonished at the work Norrie McCathie had put in during preseason as he was now skipping down the wing beating people with ease (turned out it was Ivo, not Norrie).

I have a strong feeling that they unusually kept the Matchwinner supplied away shirt whilst having the LCS home one (getting away with it as the Landmark sponsor remained identical). Before that was the purple and green vertical stripes effort below (I'm still unsure about whether it's nice or not, by '90s standards anyway) and after the aforementioned quartered strip I can only recall the purple / gold Avec away strips, i.e. no LCS away shirt inbetween. My nomination for the worst Pars away kit though: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is/was scanned in somewhere on P&B.. there was a magazine (442?) feature with Jimmy Hill one summer where he chose his favourite strips from around the leagues of the UK. He was modelling that green and purple effort - proper full kit on. Gruesome sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
