I've got a spare retro adults shirt in a large. I paid £40 for it but rather than send it back and it go into a mass scramble on their website, does anyone on here want it for £40? Can either collect from my office on Chants Ave today or from my house in Swanland this evening but I am away over the weekend.

I'm on about what I prefer ( not that I'd buy nowadays ) and plain amber is my preference but I ain't bothered either way

And I was on what I prefer and why. Though most of my early years of support during the Britton and Neill years were spent watching them in plain amber shirts.
 
No serious club messes with the basic design of its kit. You'll never see Liverpool, Man Utd, Man City, Everton, Spurs or Chelsea experiment with stripes, similarly Newcastle, Southampton, West Brom, Sunderland etc always stick with variations of vertical stripes in the same way Celtic and QPR have hoops. It's an important part of establishing the club's identity. Fannying around every other year just reeks of a small-time mentality and an insecurity about what the club stands for. The fact that we're The Tigers makes it even more ridiculous to even contemplate plain shirts.

I agree. Pinstripes are okay though.

We always have rotated between stripes and plain, so like it our not it is part of our identity. To switch to full-time stripes would be messing with our identity, and doing that to try and be more similar to big clubs would be the small-time thing, in my opinion.

Most clubs don't play in amber at all. They can keep their boring reds and blues. Our visual identity is miles better.

Southampton are a bad example, they’ve changed their kit design more than anyone in the last decade or so.
