Apart from that it would be fine, quite similar to the 97/98 one in terms of collar and number of stripes. Badge isn't in the centre, you're fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the club's statement yesterday, there are supposed to be clues appearing on social media, but I haven't seen anything. Erm, it's different but not a million miles off from what I've seen. Think what I saw was the digital impression of it though and not an actual kit so it might have had 1 or 2 wee tweaks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we sell them with long sleeves, too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything looks flat and printed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed for a proper badge though... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve had the bib strip, the leiderhosen strip, now it’s time for the behind closed doors strip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted June 11, 2020 Author Share Posted June 11, 2020 From that video it looks like the badge is woven into the fabric of the shirt. Definitely better than a printed on badge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinner-to-Saint Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Just mentioned this in another thread, but it seems only the home kit is being launched tomorrow? 1) The two, black and white, dots at the top of the post, where previously there had been three (see image below), imply there is no red in the home strip. 2) That and the fact the text at the bottom clearly states 'St Mirren's 2020/21 home kit coming soon...' seems to indicate the away strip will not be released tomorrow. 3) I don't think the detail is stuck on, like I have seen on some poorly made kits, rather I think the fabric has been dyed, in the same way the black and white stripes have been. That's based upon the image above, though. 4) The above image includes THREE dots - black, white and red - but kit is singular. Surely if both the home and away kitS were being released, they would have pluralised the noun, 'kit'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He turns 38 in December and hasn't played a league game for 18 months. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When there is shite like Fon Williams, Clark, Laidlaw & Zlamal/That loan keeper from Man U stinking out the league last season, even if Gordon is utterly finished, has to still be better than that. Spoke about it a few times in the Championship (And because we have to suffer shite like Jack Hamilton) there is a real dearth of top notch keepers in Scottish football at the moment bar Forster, McGregor, Marciano & Lewis (Possibly Carson if he's recovered). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keepers are a bit weird so he'll maybe be fine, but as someone whos watched multiple high performing, ageing, players completely diminish over the course of a Summer, that kind of inactivity would be giving me the fear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd bite your hand off for a completely finished Craig Gordon (Not withstanding that we have Jack Hamilton as that defeats the point). The quality of goalkeeper in the Championship is so low that I still long for a return of Speroni who is 41 and not played in 18 month. Hell, I'd even take a return of Rab Douglas and I'd wager he'd be at least an upper half Championship goalkeeper at 48. The best goalkeeper in the Championship last season was Dundee United's goalkeeping coach who has retired (Neil Alexander). I'm rambling now, but the point is, keepers don't lose it the same way outfielders do even with time out the game. If there wasn't a bit of ageism in football I reckon we'd see keepers plying their trade well into their late 40's - changed a bit with the invention of 'sweeper keeper' mind you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
