Alan apparently loves it. Why don't they all hold a Press Conference and apologise for the monstrosity they put on show yesterday? Then bin the strips and bring out a St Mirren one. Aint Karma a bitch! "new strip designing board member rushed to hospital after severe chafing incident in training kit" oooh that sounds painful! Rub of the balls at 1:00 min mark!

waldorf34 Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 Alan Wardrop was on the committee put together by the old board for the Fans Council that approved Mr Rae as manager and on the St Mirren board that approved Alan Stubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buddies1877 Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 Still love the home strip just about the same as juves strip last year only thing that would add to it is the stripes that are similar to juves top at the back but the collar imo is much nicer than there’s.

I have only really seen people expressing a view or having a wee joke so I don't understand the mocking or mentions of meltdown. Seems we've yet again arrived at a position where any opinion that is not unwaveringly positive and supportive regarding EVERYTHING to do with St Mirren is to be derided Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 I like both strips. The home is Juvesque and most would agee its a quality top. Put St Mirren in a similar strip and as usual our fans slag it off. No matter what is picked there will be the usual backlash and putting it down.

Put St Mirren in a St Mirren Top like the one in 2012 /2013 and there will be mostly acceptance and praise and definitely no backlash or meltdowns. It really is very simple. It is absolutely amazing what got churned out yesterday considering all members of the DESIGN COMMITTEE are St Mirren Supporters. Are they trolling us ?

FTOF Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 Imagine getting upset at people blowing off a bit of steam over a pretty horrible looking kit. 🤣 FTOF and others - calm down FFS. People are giving their opinion. We are not talking about blood in the street. People will move onto something else in a few days. Honestly, what a collection of drama queens. 🤣 Why would I not be calm? This great entertainment. [emoji1] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deekthebuddie Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 Sorry to say it, but both kits are shite. Was hoping we would get our stripe back, but instead got yet another piss poor effort that must have taken the design department at Joma all of 3 seconds to come up with- and they have forgotten about the back of the home shirt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vambo57 Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 I imagine we will come in for a pile of laughing and finger pointing for that. The lunatics have taken over the strip committee. When we have been relegated in the past, it is usually accompanied by a shite strip. This absolutely REEKS of a Relegation strip... unfortunately.

FTOF Posted June 13, 2019 Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 They're both run of the mill football strips. No worse nor no better than the strips of our opposition. Showed them to a few folk at work , who support other teams, and the only negative comment was regarding the height of the sponsor's logo on the away strip. Amazing what a lack of attachment to the club does for an observation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get where you are going with this.... 2014/5's kit was a shiter, however, I think these actually (going by twitter and social media mainly) a lot of satisfaction for these kits. Therefore, I plump for it looking like a 10th Place kit, so we are gonnae be ok! Got to say, the season past's away kit was a cracker and sad to see it go. Red away kits are a favorite of mine (particularly some of the AC milan style ones). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seaside Nipper Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 The strips are imo garbage. However when the likes of MUFC, NUFC, Citeh, LUFC etc. etc. can come up with absolute honkers, why get upset with our latest dalliance in bespoke kit design Primarily its a sponsors logo that detracts hugely from what could in some instances be decent enough kit. Its just annoying that SMFC cannot stick to classic lines stripes and avoid these own goals in marketing land. Its a NO from me, but others will buy and cherish the strip. I'll ignore the kits by and large when we are playing a high tempo pressing game, scoring some goals and winning some games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
