The next one I’ve seen is The Arsenal home kit... Not too bad either but with a z’y (zeddy) zigzag type pattern through it - The big question is will The Gunners cannon their was through defensive lines with military precision and shoot anything in sight on their way to winning the war with their enemies in 2023/24... Or after their close but no cigar efforts last season will the hangover season kick in and the Footy be - zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ! 😬 View AttachmentVisit Rwanda, via Albania, Syria wherever

Steve Moran, David Armstrong Didnt Southampton have something like 5 or 6 former England captains in their side during that late 70s era? Keegan, Ball, Shilton, Mick Mills, Dave Watson? ..dont think Channon captained England

Do these clubs give their own fans a second thought when theyre ditching their clubs traditional shirt? In the case of Southampton what is their traditional shirt, they've had this current reincarnation before, they've had stripes, they've had predominantly red, they've had a primarily white shirt with red sides(and vice versa), its basically been all over the place, if pushed i'd say traditionally its stripes. Yeah theyve had a few. Their colours are red and white stripes, black shorts. Thats what you think of when you picture them. If Town were saddled with a blue and white version of their kit this season, id be well pissed off.

Normally buy mine in the sale at either the season mid point or end of season sale. After all apart from one disastrous period in the late 60's when we went to an all blue shirt it's always been blue & white stripes in my lifetime. We had all blue shirts in the 70s too, Pretty sure the 1st season i went proper as a 5/6yo we had all blue. maybe the 76/77 season. I had an all Blue shirt in the 70's, it had HTFC or HTAFC written diagonally for the badge, I think!!

I've got a Toffs copy of the 1967 blue shirt and I remember a lad up the road having the mid 70's blue Bukta shirt.

Yeah, I've got that one, more like a jumper than a football shirt, but very nice IMO Think I got it from a retro shirt website and not from Town. Edit: Just read reply from Porrohman and I think it's THAT one I've got, not the one you describe.

Sheff weds new shirts are £200, in their case its understandable i suppose. Average size of their fans means more material needed for the shirt. It's not just their club that's massive they will have a massive neckline too or full button collar , needed for their massive heads to fit through

Someone told me our all blue shirt from the mid 70s was identical to Halifax's shirt at the time, even down to the HTFC badge. Dont know if thats true or not.

Looked it up on that historic kit site,it was mid 70's, must have been, just remember it being all blue, n HTFC sideways!!

Here’s the nearest thing to HTAFC in Scotland (in the senior League anyway) - The Kilmarnock FC home kit for 2023/24... More like ours (stripes wise) from last season but with more white around the shoulders... The badge is kinda ‘lost’ between the stripes without the shield like we have to highlight it - Blue shorts which make them like Sheffield Wednesday - utter.. yuck.. yuckitty.. yuck are blue shorts with the blue n’ white stripes - so bloody Wendy esque not that Kilmarnock will bother but it was 🤮DISGUSTING ☹️ the time Town tried it back in the early nineties ! Never again I pray will that happen - our blue n’ white stripes with white shorts are classy, unique and BEAUTIFUL 😊 and our socks are nice either white or black !

Don’t get the foootball shirt as a fashion item to be worn on a night out.. There needs to be rules enforced by the fashion police imo.. Ok to wear your team’s colours to a game but nowhere else.. But only if you’re under 40.. 40 years or older.. There are no circumstances where it’s ok to wear a football shirt.. Custodial sentences for repeat offenders.. 🍻🍻 A no no is middle aged and older blokes (possibly with families) wearing their heroes name on the back of the shirt. Those that wear them in the airport,then you see them on the flight back wearing it🤣

Have they done that because they're sponsored by Yanks? I can't see KG doing anything so drastic to OUR kit, he seems to understand tradition. Here's hoping so anyway, that Barnsley kit is a monstrosity IMO
