it was awful

It truly was, looked like a biscuit wrapper. Frankly it would be fucking nuts in the 1976 anniversary season not to have a traditional iconic yellow and blue away kit. You know, the one we won our only major trophy in during our 139 year history!  You'd bet on the SFC commercial crew brains trust to do just that!

With the 79 League Cup we played two major finals in that specific kit and the 2003 FA Cup Final kit was a tribute to it. But decisions that supporters would make without hesitation are not creative enough for marketing people. No let's replicate a kit no one liked the first time round. I am worried that the next home design will be based on the Steve Zodiac abomination from our centenary season of 85/86.

FFS, no !

One of our worst home kits ever in my view. 
 

Even worse that it was our centenary season. What were they thinking ? Easy option to delve back to the past for the sash, halves or quarters, then they come up with that mess.

Not a fan of ‘GARMIN’ being vertical not horizontal on the sleeve, looks a bid odd to me. Otherwise a decent brand and simple text logo is better than most sleeve sponsors.

Missed '76, but I was at the League Cup final in 79 with the old man to see the beautiful Admiral classic in top level action.  Have always though the traditional strip our best away kits - the marketing drones are missing a trick, with a tweak enough 'creativity' for most Saints fans. Agree the zodiac centenary Arsenal nonsense was an abomination!

People also forget that the Admiral classic appeared in another cup final FA Cup final in late 79, when Rod Turner scored a late winner for the Saints against a formidable Leicester Forest side - something the inbreds down the M27 never mention. As far as I know Rod Turner is the only man to win an FA Cup winners medal and Golden Globe!

That winning team was I believe Windsor FC. This still is from a previous round that was filmed at our away game at Ipswich. I actually saw the film at the Savoy cinema in Nottingham

I've been wondering who the sleeve sponsor would be.

Flashbacks of our defenders running in treacle as Dennis Bergkamp slaloms around them to score his first Arsenal goals.

Works in cycling, but surely up the other way? Weird!
