    Replicas usually aren't the same. The pro kits hve all sorts of technical bollocks

    We've always switched between stripes and plain so it ain' t the same.
    Our badge at the minute would look good if they just put the name on it.

    Switching beteeen suggests it is regular. And you say that has always been the case. We had lo g periods with a striped shirt, then a long period with plain shirts. Doing it regularly has only occurred regularly in these dayd of selling replica shirts.

    Even massive clubs like Barcelona and BAYERN sometimes break from tradition and change from the norm.

    True but you said we had always switched, which we haven't. If Harold Needler had got his way we would have been playing in blue and orange with three coronets on the shirt and renamed Kingston Upon Hull City AFC. Wonder what Allam would have altered that to as no tigers would have been involved? We have also spent more seasons without a tiger on our shirts as with. In fact Hull City only first appeared on a shirt in 1978 and Hull City AFC in 1980. No doubt Ehab could make a case for no tiger or no AFC.
    It is irrelevant what either of us, or any other fans think anyway, as it is all about marketing and kit sales nowadays. Though I can't see Real Madrid changing from plain shirts to one with stripes, hoops or even one of those wonderful sashes.

    I can’t see River Plate - one of the biggest, most successful clubs in world football - changing to plain.

    Thus is true !!
    I wouldn't mind seeing a nice sash on a white away kit.
    Wether the shirt is plain or striped it is fine with me.
    As you say we haven' t always had our name in the shirt and if it wasn't for the fact that it was these 2 tosspots that had done the badge it wouldn't be as big an issue.!

    I can't see Juve, Milan or Inter changing from hoops to plain shirts either.

    Why are you saying they have hoops when the clubs you reference predominantly have vertical striped shirts throughout their histories? I think you’re getting mixed up between the natural markings of a tiger and the historic football shirts of certain clubs.

    But of course you will remember Inter having hooped shirts...

    "The pattern is actually part of the animal's skin so it appears below the fur as well. Tigers don't need protection from other animals, though they do need protection from human beings. The striped-coat camouflage serves to hide them from prey."

    I really think you need to go for a lie down. It’s the weekend, go and crack open a can of Tizer.

    Agree !!
    He does rattle on doesn' he.
    We've had probably well over 15/16 plain shirts in our history
