Today’s football strips.

I fully understand that the strip that is worn by a team doesn’t really affect the way the game is played. However, some of the strips look more akin to women’s dress material than a football shirt.
I may be old fashioned but I feel that a sports outfit should look like one. That pink monstrosity that we have this season is an abomination. I don’t mind the yellow strip as it’s reasonably plain with no silly designs on it. Our home kit is great, just plain and simple.
Do the younger generation like these pretty patterns and am I just an old ‘Colonel Blimp?’

I have been expressing my distaste for many football strips for a long time now. I cannot believe that whoever ‘designs’ the rubbish can possibly be a football fan and how on Earth can to clubs themselves accept such dross? That pink outfit of ours is indeed, one of the worst to ever disgrace a football pitch. I have said before, though, that football fans themselves are much to blame for buying the rubbish. It is quite absurd to cough up £40-50 for cheap tat that is only worth about 10p, regardless of the design. If WBA sold football strips in claret and blue, or gold and black, with an Albion badge on them, there would still be plenty of idiots buying them. Just stop buying the sh!t.

I absolutely hate it when clubs play in a change strip when there is no need. Today, for example, Manchester City are playing in a sort of dark red kit at Molineux; why? Light blue and white does not clash with gold and black. Tradition has gone out of the window and now it is all about fleecing as many people as possible. Sadly, too many fans are too stupid to realise that they are being taken for mugs.

I personally like a bit of colour but not the pinks, hi viz jacket yellows etc. I remember how none of us liked logos on our kits. We wanted it to be about football not other businesses cashing in. Of course everything is money and it seems that those who sponsor us have more control over content and come out with some bizarre ideas. It’s a changing world which pushes all boundaries.

I don't like the current home top, in my opinion the back of the shirt should be the same design as the front i.e. stripes, not a huge white block for a number and name.

Don't have a problem with any of our current kits. Even the pink ones look better in person. Those sizes though. My days they do look a 'bit' snug.
