Accrington Stanley (2) - Historical Football Kits
New kit release!
- Thread starter baldy
- Start date
That would hardly be a shock wi whats making decisions at the club.Now there's an idea
I'll be proudly wearing my "Brand New" 1997 Home and Away Shirts this coming season (courtesy of stanleynick)
Quite like it meself and will probably buy one and I certainly don't"meekly follow the official line". As has been said, what really counts is the performances of the players who are wearing it!
When wearing vertical stripes,isn't it supposed to make you look taller?,bet pieros buzzing 
Fully agree with the comments about us not wearing Red when playing away when we don't need to change from Red!
Regarding the "Stripes".
I don't dislike the new striped kit and if I were a Stoke, Sheff Utd or Sunderland fan I might even fall in love with it!!!
However, Stripes are just not right for The STANLEY!!!!!
But.....ON STANLEY ON........
.......even if we were to play in PINK and TURQUOISE HOOPS with BROWN and GREEN STRIPED shorts !!!!!
......oops!!!

......oops!!!That goes without saying, but it also suggests you think the kit is unimportant. I can't agree with that
I can understand that cos football19 aint grown up wi Stanley.
The kit probably is unimportant to the players who are wearing it (as long as they're not asked to wear anything too ridiculous!), so it's not going to make any difference to their performance and that's what counts.
That's a fair point Cashy,but surely it didn't matter when you and redraine were playing as after five minutes you were covered from head to toe in mud !!, chasing a cannonball with leather nail stud boots on !!!
True, but Stanley were always "The Reds"That's a fair point Cashy,but surely it didn't matter when you and redraine were playing as after five minutes you were covered from head to toe in mud !!, chasing a cannonball with leather nail stud boots on !!!
Knobhead Liberals v Traditionalist Moaners... I'd pay £15 to watch that friendly!
Personally I agree that the design is not Stanley and was disappointed in the club for choosing this kit. I gather it was slim pickings from stock designs but going into a different club design altogether was always going to be divisive.
That said, the kit has grown on me the more I've seen it. I think it looks better than any of the kits we've had in recent years and it may well be the first replica I've bought in a few seasons.
Go figure!

Strangely enough the same process went on in our house with her who must be obeyed. The initial 'stripe' shock has gone to liking it a lot.
