Mariners playing strip- ACL and 09/10 season

[morrijo]

Dont like the new shirts.

We currently have the best home strip ( Perths is also Good )

Nice big central coast on the front and easy to read the names on the back against the yellow.

Away strip look like T shirts from best and less

They payed money for that .

How will the sponsorship look.

Should hae stuck with what they had.

agree with the best and less call re: away kit, it is pretty awful
i dont mind the home kit although would have been much much better if it were thinner stripes like Dibo posted, overall pretty underwhelmed with it all

The gold trimming wasn't a nessecity, there are no rules on it.
Up close the yellow jersy looks.... cheap. The sewing lines on it are different, and don't look right.

I agree with Floss on the whole yellow kit. Eg: Chelsea this season.

shit...

there goes every chant with the word 'yellow' in it.

1. not sure how we have 'the best' home strip as its the same design as 3 other clubs, whilst glorys is also the same as 2 other clubs

2. i assume the backs are navy(jimmy can confirm?) therefore names will be easier to read

3. Numbers wont be on the front for the league which means your precious sponsorship will be there'

4. agree that away shirt looks dodgy

There's stripes down the back with blue square covering the yellow striped under the number, cant really remember the name part sorry, but I'm guessing that'd be the same.

please refrain from protesting, otherwise you will be labelled pathetic etc by mr celery

This thread has got me thinking about past suggestions.

rather then vertical stripes i would have preferred a parma style shirt

For the away strip i would have liked our original shirt back with blue trim replacing the white trim......wouldnt mind the player back either

 

[~Floss~]

One positive from the average fans' perspective: vertical stripes are said to be "slimming".

My initial thoughts as well, good research from the club

Cater for the fat bastards

Well done - I'll have one please

"Vertical stripes don't flatter - they make you look fatter"

Oh Hutcho..

 

[Jorome Alexander Bennett]

IMO One strip should be highly-contrasting colours (yellow + navy) and the other must be a plain/solid colour, different to the dominant colour of the contrasting strip (eg. all yellow shirt+socks+shorts).

If our new home strip clashes with Wellington, then yellow shirt/dark shorts woulnd't be much better.

On another note this is a great move by the club/FFA, as I'm actually considering whether I would buy both shirts. I'm sure plenty more people would be thinking this compared to when every club had virtually the same away strip.

+1 for all of that.

The strips will look a lot less like training kit when they are adorned with club/competition ensignias and sponsors.

I look forward to off-centre club badge.

Wasn't going to buy one anyway. I got a new one in December. I'm trying to average my Jersey purchasing to One a year.

 

[Paolo]

have been able to get my hands on the amended version for the regular season...quite a scoop

 

[Marquee]

First opinion was a bit of a shock, the pictures make it look very bland and unimaginative, much like a training kit.

However, went down and visited Mariners HQ and asked to have a look at the home strip. I must say it looks better in real life. It reminds me of the strips we wore Pre Season Cup V1, especially the away. It definitely needs some sponsors and logos to create a bit more appeal. Something to spice it up.
