Do not forget that makes them a little bit more of a collectors item ;)

Like Dave has said, we have our hands tied and will try our utmost to not let people down :)

:) :) :)

Why "unavoidable" Dave? Could we not get enough of the old design to put the new players' names on, or something? Just asking :)

Unavoidable may have been the wrong word. There was no easy solution is probably a better answer ;) New home kit was required :)

Besides I didn't even get my choice, apparently Claret & Blue wasn't deemed appropriate :D

It would be very appropriate as toilet paper.

If you are the Reds you don't wear stripes! Ask Liverpool. And why Red stripes? If you need a change for the sake of change, why not something more dramatic, like Maroon and Gold hoops, or something else that has nothing to do with Stanley?

Accrington Stanley have worn Red shirts for 115 years with one exception, 1961-62. Omen?:(

Anyone know if the back of the shirt mirrors the front, or solid red - Dave ?

I think it looks very professional! Nice to see a break from the same old solid red or red with white flashes shirts we usually wear.:alright:

Back of the shirt is solid red.

Shirt will be same all season, only the sponsor will change in the New Year

I agree Greger.
Stanley in stripes just isn't right!
I suppose I am just a boring old .... and yes I am a believer in tradition so in my view STANLEY should be in FULL RED SHIRTS and, dare I say it, in white shorts too!:jimbo:
I believe that you can still apply the long standing red and white colour scheme but with an ultra modern design incorporated and Stanley players will look superb!
:alright:
Stripes just remind me of Pyjamas!!!:eek::bingobang:help:
If we played in blue and white we would look like BANANAS IN PYJAMAS!!!!:Banane48::Banane40::banane58:

You can guarantee if you designed the shirt there will be others who dislike it, it's how football fans roll :)

Have to say I expected the shirt to get a lot more flak from the traditionalists than has happened, maybe they are still speech less :D

I would have given flak, but was too disgusted, seems to me those making decisions, have no concept at all of tradition. or they just dont give a toss, nowt shocks me any more.:rolleyes:

Tradition went out of football years ago, no matter how much we dont like it.

I'm slowly getting used to the idea of stripes & it could have been worse, we could've had hoops & horizontal stripes don't do me any favours :rolleyes:
