the snudge Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 They're not offensive but a little unimaginative. I honestly thought we'd have a bespoke effort for the anniversary. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 We were formed in December 1872 were we not? So 2022-23 would be the 150th celebration season, not 2021-22? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moonster Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 The away choices are all the home top options in different colours. I get there's reasons for it but I really do hate these off the shelf designs we plump for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Parr Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Home choice 2 is particuarly loathsome. If pushed i'd plump for Home (3) and Away (1). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

microdave Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) I can't vote for any of them as they're all honking. And Jim McAllister told me about a month or so ago, that 2022/23 is when the club are celebrating the 150th. Eta I've just seen the away kits and really like the red and black one.

Jumbo Muir Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Just training tops, these aren’t strips. Who at the club is allowing these to be our choices? Our club colours are black and gold. Sick of yellow forced on us in strips, on the website and in the stadium. Cheap tat that aren’t in club colours. I’d sooner wear a Wolves top with our badge sewn on it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that someone definitely isn't Joma. Almost all their templates look like cheap rip offs of a bigger brand, or are horribly overdesigned. Seriously envious of Airdrie's home top this season. I'd absolutely love to cut about in a retro inspired Sons Umbro number. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Muir Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 It was mentioned in commentary v Airdrie what a cracking strip they were wearing. An iconic strip that hasn’t changed and is instantly recognisable as Airdrie. Would it be so difficult ? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumbo Muir Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Or as worn by Murdo, a cheeky wee Admiral number. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the cost of a bespoke kit means that you have to sell a fair number to achieve a good margin and in the past we’ve not sold enough to make it viable. So either the club opt for a cheaper off the shelf effort or put the price up on the bespoke kit to make it viable. I’m sure that was the reasons given when I queried it in the past. Regardless our 150-anniversary kit absolutely must be a bespoke design and should, in my opinion, be similar to the Umbro kit posted previously. Iconic. White with the GOLD and black bands. Given the anniversary I’m positive a good quality kit will shift in good numbers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Absolutely horrendous choices. The effort we’ve made in the kit department the last few years is piss poor. Just give us the bespoke kit we want and if that means paying more for it then so be it. These off the shelf Joma numbers are pathetic. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
