I blame the kit

[guancheblade]

Just look at it. No wonder the players look embarrassed to be out there on the pitch.

It had relegation written all over it as soon as it was revealed. As soon as I saw that dodgy collar I knew the writing was on the wall (in the same way as that awkward kit we had Micky Adams season). Our oly half decent performances have come in the pink (10 men backs to the wall did em proud like) and the green (gave the reigning champions Liverpool a reet game at their place).

So I say we do what any good Marvel movie would do, where in the face of adversity the hero regroups, dusts off his OG uniform and wins the day! We need our mojo back pronto just the same, anything is worth trying at this point so for me there's only one thing for it...

I was just about to write the exact same, how fucking weird! I was watching this goal from a year ago today:



Look how good we were, look how good we looked.

It's no surprise, we're now wank because we look wank, in white and red, or bloody pink.

That's because we're both right on this

Bloody hell. What's happened to us? We're lucky if we can string 5 or 6 passes together these days.

The green kit is a thing of beauty though, we've done nowt in that either. Decent v Liverpool but awful v Arsenal.

I also rather like the pink one....

 

[Ginger Gnome]

Keeper kit is definitely to blame, we have three, two of them are nice, but Ramsdale always wears the crap one with blue trim

 

[Bladesman]

Normally I would agree but we had a lot of white on the kit we got promoted with.

 

[LS16Blade]

The League 1 title-winning kit was a beauty, especially with a number 15 on the back of the shirt...

I was thinking to myself the other day,i hope Chris Wilder is not morphing into Micky Adams.

 

[Gavlar]

Bring back the old kit.

Get Ramsdale to wear a top with long sleeves and I'll guarantee he'll keep a clean sheet.

 

[Aganarama]

Snap! I thought the same when I first saw it. But then you think you are being daft (being a grown up and all)...whilst at the same time hoping your irrationality doesn’t play out.

PS I thought it was just me who thought these things!!!

 

[bromtom]

I think the player who should be in the kit who isn't is our main problem.

JOC in this kit and we're lower midtable.

 

[KoppedOff]

This years home kit is undeniably foul. However- to play devils advocate, the Ramsdens Currency home one was absolutely rancid and I hated that even more. And we got promoted in it. So I’m perplexed.

I fully endorse #BRINGBACKLASTYEARSHOMESHIRT That was a classic.

 

[Stretch]

I don't mind the home kit at all, and I love the green one.

The pink one is a monstrosity though.

 

[Numpty's Dusty Ruts.]

Too much white, not enough red. Like that pinstripe monstrosity from the last Nigel's time. Worrying.

 

[metalblade]

As soon as I saw the pink piece of shite I thought Relegation shirt

And the white "surrender" back to the home kit.

And McBurnie to wear full length socks and he might, just might, start scoring,

 

[bongleblade]

let's face it, it's a kit you'd expect us to bring out in League One. An absolutely embarrassing effort, only matched by the V Games shirt modelled here by Febian Brandy and Tony Non-League McMahon



and to be honest, slap some adi stripes on and take that daft logo and collar off, and you've got a home kit miles better than this years effort

 

[guancheblade]

Normally I would agree but we had a lot of white on the kit we got promoted with.

Yeah but at least it looked nice. This season's has no redeeming features whatsoever.

 

[bongleblade]

just to lay into this years shi(r)t a little more..

does anyone else think that the curved shoulder patch gives an illusion that the players are slouching their shoulders forward?

I've noticed it loads when watching us, It literally gives the illusion that the players have hunched shoulders, and in my opinion makes us appear submissive and defeated before a ball is even kicked

Case examples:

 

[guancheblade]

Bring back the old kit.

This guy gets it

I don't mind that home kit. I think it's the sponsor that ruins it:



Real Betis also had it in Green/White stripes.

True if the sleeves on this seasons kit were red it would look well smart.

Not so sure. I think it's better in white:

It would need the Adidas stripes on the sleeves in white I think.

Okay, the more edits I suggest the closer we get to last seasons kit it seems.
