Tbh, I don't know if this is the case, I just know he came within Al to the meeting and he's an ex midfield player who has played in the German leagues I think. Seems the silent observant type.

Brazil are another example, when not using their traditional kit they lose that special appeal. I respect your opinion as always though.

I just think as long as it's nothing drastic like some of the different home colours we've seen blue and white, regardless of pattern etc, will do.

If fans are happy to buy the current replica non descript kits fine, but I'm sure more would be sold of A more traditional strip.

I wouldn't necessarily disagree but I suspect that most people's idea of a traditional strip is whatever the side were wearing when the bug bit.

Will it be memorable in 10 years time? As long as they use the traditional colours I think that’s the first point that should be considered when designing a strip. It’s not exclusive to us that manufacturers have abandoned that idea over the past few years in favour of very plain, very neutral designs. This season’s Nike template is about as bland as there has ever been Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super_blue Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 It’s a great idea and i’m Sure will be successful but no point now...may as well wait until next season and launch it with a decent promo campaign! This is a prime example of not announcing something until is 100% guaranteed to happen. Good intentions from all concenernd but someone in the club should be owning things like this and only letting the trigger be pulled when it’s happening.
