Mariners playing strip- ACL and 09/10 season

Blaim Reebok and the FFA for these if you don't like them. I am sure the mariners would have gone through many different designs but were railroaded into what they could and couldn't have.

The sooner the day comes that clubs have control over the designs & providers of their strips, (with approval from the FFA of course) the better.

The club have not announced it yet, they will also be selling other ACL merchandise too but I can only assume it will be after the HAL finals.

why do you think the club didn't get what they wanted?

will all clubs have a new strip next season?

 

[dibo]

yes, i think so.

 

[typool]

will the new strip have the "central coast" writing on the front??

that will depend on who our major sponsor is.

This is a point I made in another thread... I thought it was unusual to unveil a new strip without our major sponsor emblazoned across the front. I did a search on the net for similar unveilings from big overseas teams and they all had their sponsor on the shirt when presented to the media. Being the conspiracy theorist that I am, I think we might be getting a new sponsor for the ACL.

Or we might not have one at all.

Mariners chose the shirts, true story, blame them, nobody else

Hmmm ... the ideas followed were OK but a bit of market (fans) research may have got better results.

I do think that the home strip should have more yellow, and that yellow socks would be better

Make the sleeves,shorts and socks yellow with a couple of thin blue stripes on the shorts and socks.A bit like Ajax with different colours.

IMO the away strip should be a completely different colour and only worn when there is a colour clash with the opposition.

Interesting that there's more positive comments about these strips on the Sydney forum than on here.

Because it took months to sort it out.

You dont have months long negotiations with a multi national corporation and "get what you want". They would have come to the table with ideas and Reebok said you can have this, this or this. Then the months taken were the mariners saying "but what about this, or could we just do it this way" to the answer of no, no & no.

(All IMO just for clarification. )

Also a suggestion in there that 2-3 clubs will have stripes next season

FFS, PLEASE let us stick with something unique and identifiable for long enough to develop some pride in the strip.

Also, re. the negativity: I for one don't mind the strips. I'll reserve full judgement till i see the completed versions in person. IF we can stick with the home strip and another club doesn't get the same design, it is definitely something that we all could/should grow to love.
