New Kit

I like that name. I shall be using it incessantly for the foreseeable future.

So sayeth the Oracle.

 

I am all for change but that home shirt is just rank....away shirt on the other hand I like. I think for the first time ever I wont be buying the home shirt.

 

Come on you Reds...says it all really.

 

Saints sent one to Soccer AM's resident Saints fan Chris Nutbeam:

Looks better there. Not as dark as pictures showed.

 

Other reason?....Tradition.

 

Too ****ing right it would be better, because then it would be a Southampton kit, not a Liverpool kit.

Saints were the one making a big play on the fact this was "tailored by Umbro specially for the club".

You'll never walk alone

 

I preferd the old CBK who wasn't afraid to speak his mind.

 

I think it makes a statement that we are not the same club as relegated seven years ago.

 

Hang on a mo. You're saying it would be okay to take another club's kit and stick a Saints logo on it?

In which case with your own argument that is what we have done.

Obviously Sunderland and Stoke are in stripes, but still.

 

Pretty much the same reason but with more positive wording isn't it. "Saints are red-and-white and therefore should always remain that way" is the only reason we have heard.

 

Just seen a sensible post on SaintsWeb (yes, you read that correctly):

"Let's face it. The Saints that most of us have known all our lives died in 2005. We are now in a new age, with a new Saints created in the image and dreams of Liebherr and Cortese. Can anyone not support their dream, their achievements?

The team is dead, long live the team. Into the future and put the past to rest."

 

Well I'm happy if it is the only way we get to see Lambert in a Liverpool strip until he retires!

 

nor the same club that got promoted about 2 months ago?

 

Well, I don't love it....yet. But I don't hate it either. Like a lot of people have said, I think the white stripes could have been marginally thicker, and the gold logo that mightysouthampton mocked up on page 2 looked better.

Regarding the away kit, it looks nice but I really wish they had kept the yellow (maybe yellow with a blue pinstripe). Yellow is such a part of our history, I couldn't believe when they came out with at last year's memorial cup, it was brilliant.

The whole crowd should wear yellow whenever we play Man Utd.

 

"Saints are red-and-white stripes and therefore should always remain that way except for the numerous seasons in the past where we weren't red and white but we can ignore that because **** you" is a more accurate quote.

To all the "****in Liverpool!" complainers now - did you say "This isn't ****ING SOUTHAMPTON this is ****ING RIVER PLATE" in the sash year?

I hated it when we moved to St Marys from The Dell. No respect for tradition.

 

I Like it .

Home kit is RED with white stripes , away kit is WHITE with Red stripes .

Red & white stripes at EVERY saints game .

master stroke IMHO .

 

The shorts are ****e.

 

I think they might have done actually.
