Bye then

People do realise this design was our kit in 2013/14 season as our 1st season in the prem that started our 10yr stay, soon to be 11. I wonder what people's reaction to that kit was?

Fair to say I won't be "investing" (to use the politician's, football fan's etc favourite word to describe expenditure) sixty quid or more on one of these.

I've just realised it makes us look like we're promoting Sky Sports.

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

It may look different in real.life but the colours especially the red are just too bright.

It's f***ing crap.

I said it this time last year after seeing the epilepsy-inducing shambles we wore this season, but you don't see big clubs f***ing about with thier kits to this extent. Whether you call it brand, heritage, history or whatever, we don't seem to attach any importance to ours.

We are one of the few clubs in England to have a fairly unusual and unique home kit (if anyone else plays in solid red and blue stripes then I can't think of them), yet the club seem incapable of just going for a classic, simple design.
