Those in the know ( or with graying hair and good memories) know this to be true *

*I sincerely hope I'm wrong

I remember well the first one, in this same top after 4 top flight seasons (like last time).

I want the stripes back but that's not going to help when we are playing so shit and are totally rudderless.

Tonight the biggest culprit imho was Potter and his changes

I love the home shirt personally :shrug: Best one since the first home shirt of the AMEX era IMO *runs and hides*

At least we have a CUP FINAL to look forward to.

And hopefully a more honest treasurer.

It is a nice kit, but it ain’t stripes.
I said when it was introduced, that nothing good happens when we abandon blue and white stripes.
Call me superstitious.... I suppose , but we just don’t look right and we don’t play well.

I agree with the OP that we should return to the stripes.

But we haven't been playing badly this season at all. We very nearly got lucky and won a game we didn't deserve to, we have unluckily lost this year when we deserved to win, we could do with a bit of luck to balance things out.

Said the same though.

But the first time we played in it was the cup final. We were already relegated when we played in it. It was our division 2 kit.

Relegation kit !

Yep. Thought that when they first released it. It's a ******* child of the 1983 relegation kit and the 1984 Phoenix Brewery one. I know nostalgia can be a powerful thing but when everybody spunked their load over it on here I was surprised. Why would we want to ditch the stripes in favour of an old kit from the 80s that we were relegated in? I thought it was a bad portent then and still think so now.

Look at it this way... we're going to be in the FA Cup Final... and Smith might score (a second, before anyone tried to pick me up on it!) this time!
