The football leagues has to be a block cant have any stripes unfortunately
Every single team who plays in stripes in the 20/21 Championship season had stripes on the front and back of their shirts.Solid backs to striped kits..
UEFA have now changed their ruling on this so if you have stripes or hoops on the front, they have to continue on the back, however, it seems a block for the number will be required. https://www.footyheadlines.com/2018/09/uefa-bans-striped-shirts-with-solid-backs.html?m=1 This probably...www.s24su.com
This UEFA guideline could explain the lack of stripes on the back of Sunderland AFC's 2019/20 home kit
Sunderland AFC have unveiled their new home kit ahead of the 2019/20 season - and fans have been quick to notice the omission of stripes on the back of the shirt.www.google.co.uk

Terrible mateThat day I turned to my brother sat behind me and said "here we go, extra time" next thing ball in net sick as a bloke on a promise from a liar.
If I'm honest it was the most gut wrenching defeat, I mean Millennium Stadium was bad, but we were out of that by half time, but 97 at Wembley was soul destroying. At full time me and stack's of others just stood or sat there in total disbelief, I think it was Hopkin for Palace could be wrong and Tracey was off his line.Terrible mate
Yes mate hit a hopeful shot and caught us out. Stood in disbeliefIf I'm honest it was the most gut wrenching defeat, I mean Millennium Stadium was bad, but we were out of that by half time, but 97 at Wembley was soul destroying.

Wow so it does appear I was correct all along not to blow my own trumpet or anything my DMS are open for apologies

If you're reading this Paul Reeves stop talking bollcks and explain why Weeds can get stripes on shirts from Adidas and we can't. Is it simply because you can't be arsed and its in the too difficult box? Do you not understand that stripes on the back of shirts and sleeves is in the DNA of Sheffield United, perhaps you can pass that onto Adidas and the 92.7% voting preference in this poll.

I think a more pertinent question, and perhaps one worthy of an off-season thread (nothing major, only aiming for 300 posts) is what happened to threaded, sown on badges? What is wrong with them on a 70 GBP+ bit of merch?
I’ve personally taken to cutting off my macron ones and putting them in a drawer, safe in the knowledge that I’m somehow sticking it to the man, whilst also creating more random stuff in a drawer I’m never going to use.
One day, looking for a spare battery is going to spur me into action and I shall buy some $30 addidas shorts and properly “bladify” them.
Was thinking more the leisure wear. I admit I haven’t been in the club shop for a couple of years (live in Sydney) but the last time I spent a pretty penny - even in the sale - and they were flat iron on transfers made to look like cloth badges.Do you mean on the kits? They're woven now, which is more detailed while still being thread, and that's infinitely better than the trend recently from Nike and others of vinyl transfers or those raised rubber badges that Liverpool have.
The last kit we had with a more traditional embroidered badge on it was the league one promotion shirt I think.
I was a keeper always had a green top hated those gaudy coloured topsNow then George that has made me nostalgic, when we wore shirts to be proud of and not a bleeding advert in sight. My wife bought me a hoodie 3 or so years ago it's got the Sheffield coat of arms on it, I love it.

Glad the kits are up to scratch... couldn’t bring myself to grab one over here, with shipping, etc. and pink not being my colour.
Still living off the glory days in my “Lo” top (a “when Saturday comes” era effort with sadly missing “F” from the original Norwegian hero/number 9) and some old LCS gear mixed with more contemporary pieces from the glory days of league 1.
Surely the easy way around the numbers thing is to edge the numbers with a contrasting colour - yellow or gold for example. I'm sure our black letters and numbers were edged in gold a few years ago, which really helped them stand out on red and white stripes. This season, the red numbers had a white edging, so on our white backed shirts, they looked a bit thin and feeble.Not entirely correct though. You're quoting Paul Reeves, not Adidas. As proven above, Adidas have actually produced shirts very recently with stripes on the back. In our 7 seasons with Adidas, 3 of our shirts had striped backs, one of the shirts was a centenary shirt so wasn't actually a stripey shirt anyway.
The Football League and Championship aren't as strict as the Premier League and UEFA competitions. The UEFA ruling isn't actually a plain back, it's all about contrast between colours. If the colours are deemed not to have enough contrast, you have to patch it up or choose different colour numbers to provide the contrast.
When UEFA brought in the ruling, initially, you would see Juventus and Atletico Madrid for example playing in a different style shirt between league games and UEFA games. They would literally add a patch for use in Europe. Same shirt, same season, different competition:

As time has gone on these types of clubs have ended up ditching stripes on the back because they are pretty much always going to be competing in a UEFA competition, so rather than have a patched up shirt, they've adhered to the rules (their respective leagues may also have changed the rules to follow UEFA).
As the rule set by UEFA is related to contrast, not stripes or patterns, you still see teams compete with stripey backs. Barcelona for example have yellow numbers (white would also work):

Unfortunately for us. It is hard to get a clear contrast on Red/White stripes. This is why you won't see a red/white striped kit in UEFA comps with stripey backs...
