Yet as we are in the self styled best league in the world it probably will.

With Black shorts and white socks, not all red, it's the entirety of the strip I don't like, not just the shirt itself, I had got used to the idea of that.

Not all red, not once as a home strip. http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Southampton/Southampton.htm I liked the Sash, it had historic relevance. I had accepted the idea of the Red home shirt, but the strip as a whole is just not Saints.

It's fine as garments go...... If you are a Forest or Liverpool fan. The away kit is fine, but that home strip.... wrong.... We do not play in all red. (Well, until this season it seems.)

For the first time in recent memory, no I won't be rushing to buy it.

There was some negative reaction to the Sash, but not this much.

So, using the democratic medium of polling, what do we think of the kit?

Positives: The away shirt is alright. Negatives: Everything else.

Thank f**k it's just for one season.

An extremely good point.

I meant more in the all red all white away/home combo. I was ready for the all red shirt, not the all red kit. That is not a Southampton kit. As items they are not bad... they just bare little semblence to the club I support.

I see what they did there. It doesn't work.

I had a referral once. Whatever that is.

Trying to appear upmarket may be part of it, but the policy is not formalised and has been implemented aggresively seemingly at the owner and his daughter's discretion. It's not even a door policy, they will even start taking orders only for the management to tell the staff to stop. They have kicked out pregnant women, businessmen, people of varying races, one member of a party after eveyone else has settled in and people of dissability with no formal justification or obvious reason. The only logical conclusion is that they are on an absolute power trip or completely bigotted. And now, their clientelle has spoken.

Phenominally hostile. The place has been empty since this began and if you mention the bar now it is always followed by some kind of curse against the owners. Note to any business owners, never sh*t on your own doorstep, you never know when it'll come back to haunt you.

It appears that Brown's Bar hasn't bothered opening today. I wonder if that'll be a permanant arrangement.

City Link Often don't even bother turning up for item pick ups if its near the end of the working day. No consideration for their customer's needs and highly unprofessional.

On the basis of the lad struggling on the treadmill I wonder if he manages to get to Saints games any more. He was obviously a devoted fan, can you imagine simply not being mobile enough to attend? Hope he manages to beat his probelm.

What the hell did you do!? Mine is over a decade old and still fine, never washed it above 40 C though.

The club did release a limited edition replica of that shirt, still wear it from time to time.

I'm pretty sure I saw someone wearing a hoodie with that on at the Coventry game.

It's even got the local spelling right! Perfect.

There are a few on eBay. I would recommend pm'ing forum member Matthew Le Tissier, he trades in signed and older Saints shirts. He may be able to help.

A signed and framed shirt?

Series 1 of Heroes was one of the best Sci-Fi shows i've ever seen, then it lost the plot!
