You have assumed here that ALL fans want stripes. I don't believe that is true, so the "cares so little for the fan base" doesn't really add up. Would have made sense if you had said, "Cares so little for me and those like me who want stripes" ;)

Haha. And you have assumed I want stripes. I don't. My preference would be the rank xerox mock up that was done months ago. Plain red is pretty cool though.

My real problem with the leaked picture is that it is effectively the Bristol city kit. This is pretty sad. You have to go back 37 years before you find a saints kit that was NOT unique to this club. That, for me is the disgrace of it.

Tomorrow will either confirm my disappointment or will confirm that someone at the club has a pretty sick sense of humour to wind us all up like this.

Touché!

I liked that mock up early 80s kit too.

Do you..? Plenty of clubs have had red and white stripes. Considerably fewer use a white shirt with red sash, but some still do.

Maybe I should have been more specific. We never ran onto the pitch wearing the same strip someone else was running out in somewhere else in the country. I have looked back at the old kits and there always seemed to be something very unique to saints for that particular year. Yes I accept that there was probably a white shirt with a red sash somewhere. Just not in the UK that season.
 
I'm thinking the same. Or I might just go for this which is not the £45

Hahaha. That is absolutely disgusting really. Makes a mockery of us becoming a premier league team - we finally get back to the "big time", and get second rate gear at extortionate prices.

Actually what am I talking about, that sounds exactly like the premier league. For what it's worth, I'm not fussed about stripes or not, I really liked last years kit.

But this is shocking. The season ticket booklet bangs on about "unique Southampton way", and they chuck out the equivalent of a Primark football kit haha. Have to laugh really, and hope it grows on me.

It also seems like a silly thing for the manufacturer to do, because making a bunch of near-identical, generic kits might save a bit of money on manufacturing, but it sure as hell doesn't make your brand look bold and exciting.
