Without the red backs!!!!

Great time to be a saints fan, what a cracking weekend, saw so many shirts from the past at Wembley, everyone digging one out from the bottom drawer, one of my favourites I saw was one I had back in the day , must be 1998 or thereabouts, nice and simple broad red and white stripes, Sanderson sponsors, let’s hope the new kit is similar but let’s hope it goes on sale sooner rather than later while there’s a buzz about us as more people will buy a shirt whilst things are going well, we have new fanzones being created, away fans being moved, safe standing, premiership footy , hopefully a few quid to improve the squad and happy saints fans, there’s a great energy so let’s kp it going through the summer, let’s get a decent kit on sale and people will wear it with pride through the summer. Next stop for us sport minded people is Hampshire for the cricket in another fantastic stadium , we are lucky in these parts, a lovely few weeks to relax and look forward to next season with SFC. Good times!!!

Yeah a lot of the boring bastards even go on forums reading about the kit and replying to people that actually have a bit of pride in the history of the club! I just think it’s pretty simple for both teams to wear pretty much HOME colours. As you say you don’t a toss so I will leave it there. Although I am boring for caring I have better things to do now. come on you reds …. See what I did there.

Not even gonna dignify that with a proper answer. Why are you bothering to support us if that is your attitude? clown

It’s ridiculous, common sense goes out the window, we have black socks ffs just use them! The whole of our end will be red and white yet we don’t do the same, it’s marketing, just look at the kit AFCB had v Chelsea, unbelievable, was blue! it shouldn’t be a case of trying to flog more kits as we are having new soon anyhow, I really would love to be in charge of kits selection at our club, we get it badly wrong every season but this is a nonsense , use our third away socks!!!

Anyone see that result coming? Ffs that was about as predictable as it pissing down tonight. Confidence at zero going into the playoffs,, Leeds may not have anything to play for next week if Ipswich win 2 on the bounce.. no real point in anyone bothering to make an effort to watch this one.

Jellyfish Fc losing 2-0 wtf is it with this team? Sidewards, backwards, no urgency,, it’s so boring and shows we have no bottle . we have to step up in the playoffs or it’s pointless even showing up

Come on saints, last push now, we have picked up 3 points in the last 2 x so make that 3 games and we are within striking distance, the top 3 clubs are all starting to wobble and we are closing in, not been pretty but we have managed to be the form team in respect of results, you must be up for it tonight , we have a chance especially playing two of the top 3 still, this is a huge huge match , anything less than a win and I think it’s gonna be too much with the games running out. We Simply have to win and then Saturday that’s winnable aswell, massive week. come on lads.

Yeah good luck to him and his team, will pop along to watch v Oldham next Tue, so 3 games to watch in 8 days for me , lovely.

New Orleans SAINTS v Detroit Lions.. this Sunday.. I will be there wearing my saints top to the right of the sticks .. if anyone watches NFL on sky, come on saints on both sides of the Atlantic!

And the Oscar goes to…. The Spurs Goalie… his acting ability is second to none… just edges out most of the other players,, what a bunch of drama queens

Anybody got any ideas as to what the tactics are? I don’t. We are so bad…

What a shower of shit! at least we are sticking to the script. Concede early , keep playing out from the back then concede seconds before halftime. useless

Well done to the team tonight, there’s passing it around aimlessly and getting nowhere as we saw many times last year but what saints did throughout was work the opposition and play with confidence, that injury time game management was outstanding, if that had been say Liverpool they would be talking about it non stop !! I thought the boys gelled well, it’s a shame we may lose a couple of players in the transfer window but we just looked good and nice to say after last year. A win at Sheffield Wednesday on a week night is fantastic no matter the division. If we can go through the next few games with more wins and be undefeated it gives us a nice base to work with. Well done

Playing around at the back and going across our own 6 yard box invites pressure and leads to goals against us…. Mmmm . Why don’t we ditch that , just a thought.

So you don’t notice that from any distance over 3 feet away the kit looks half pink, just like it did back in 1987 when I was watching the team play in it. I was at the ageas bowl watching Hampshire the other evening and a chap had the saints shirt on as he was on the field taking part in a catch the ball thing , the shirt was pink from distance so that’s my point! (He caught the the ball by the way and won a prize)

If you like a pink kit!

It doesn’t matter where you come from really., aslong as there is some sort of link usually down to a family member or where born but our catchment area is big so welcome all, as you say better than picking a team cos they win things! I was born in Southampton, support saints, follow and go to Eastleigh fc occasionally, support Hampshire at cricket and Bath for rugby a few times a season (my closest premiership rugby team ) def doesn’t have anything to do with it being a lovely place to visit with its many pubs and eateries pre and post match by the way … honest

No but this topic is about the kit. agree more important issues, but MY opinion is thus

I see our near neighbours (but not local rivals🤦🏻‍♂️) have brought out a new striped kit for the coming season…. I thought it was impossible to design such a pattern, we can’t seem to find anyone anywhere that could do the same, maybe we can poach their person who decides this…. Maybe get us a striped kit next time?

And the very first one looks the best, I can’t fathom why we have never really based a home kit on that, it’s a classic !

Summed up perfectly!

As an aside, do you remember how hard it was to see the black number on the back of the kit when we played in it years ago, can’t wait to see what hash they make of that now!! Am all for a tweak every season or so but surely it has to be based on our tradition of stripes! It’s really not clever just putting pics on here of Shearer Case and Le tiss wearing it, they didn’t have a choice cos that’s what we played in for two years! The majority of our kits over 130 odd years have been stripes, we have had some really horrible kits in the last 30 years, we continue to mess around with it and come up with such dross. Ask Newcastle what kit they play in, ask anyone who wears stripes!

So pink it is then!!! what a bloody disappointment yet again!

Great.. so a pink home kit, cheap badges on away and third..,, don’t get why we need a third …. Make the away a bright contrast colour and it should match with the home kits of the rest of the teams.
