Not sure then, the youth of Southampton sound more cockney than the older generation I’ve found. I need to come to one of these not606 get togethers I think !
So sad we wasted last seasons home kit. Really liked that one, and on seeing the new one, I like it even more!
If that is the new kit it just looks like any other boring red and white striped kit I’ve seen before down the years. It doesn’t even look “new era” just plain and simple.
Fits with our new generic disposition I suppose. We are here, just to survive now. And make some cash along the way.
I like it. Apart from the first UA kit, I think they have delivered decent quality and let’s face it, they’re also paying us a LOT more than any of our previous suppliers
I remember the days where shirts were used for 2 years, and they alternated between updating the home or away. How money has ruined the game.
Not that long ago either. It's not that long ago that kits slowly evolved with no big changes. I remember looking in the window of Toomer's, seeing a Saints shirt with a collar and short sleeves, and being amazed at how radical and modern that looked. God, I'm old.
I'm a traditionalist, I Iike us in red and white stripes but the plain back panel makes striped shirts look ****e. Even my red and white dressing gown looks better. please log in to view this image
Ah Toomers, I can remember saving up my pocket money and taking a trip across on the Floating Bridge every month to buy another Subbuteo team...
