underboyleheating 1,497 Report post Posted June 16, 2015 If I had to choose a Macron shirt template for an updated sash/diagonal design I would be tempted to go for the 2014/15 Lazio design. Similar to our 70s top I would prefer it if the sash went from the top right shoulder to the bottom left hand corner of the shirt. However, I did notice that the standard Macron sash team wear sash shirt goes in the opposite direction and the neck line is a standard crew neck. Depending on the sponsor, it is possible for the sash to remain unbroken, however, some designs elect to leave a gap in the middle. I am not too fussed on the colour of the shorts, however, our 70s kit mainly utilised claret shorts. The same with the socks I would go with either all amber with claret hoops or claret with amber hoops. Anyway, here is a very rough mock up to demonstrate how it might look. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have to agree the finish on the club badge has always been a bug bear of mine, however, although I no longer buy tops I noticed the finish on last seasons badge was a little odd.

Big Stall 445 Report post Posted June 16, 2015 A few years back Sweden had an away top with a "diagonal stripe/sash" on it and it was a belter of a strip IMO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weeyin 4,153 Report post Posted June 16, 2015 Would be nice if we could bring back Marinello, Graham and Pettigrew along with the diagonal. (You can keep the ploughed field version of Parkhead, though). 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(You can keep the ploughed field version of Parkhead, though). The memories of watching they guys play is why some of us fancy a return to the diagonal band. Don't care who wore the yellow Admiral number though, I never want to see that monstrosity at Fir Park again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bobbybingo 300 Report post Posted June 16, 2015 The 5-3 Rangers game where they invaded the pitch (showing impeccable restraint) after we went 2-0 up...just before our 2nd goal Davie Cooper passes to Bobby Russell, who passes to Tommy McLean. Then Willie McVie flattens Gordon Smith, steps over his victim and has a wee look at the Rangers fans as if to say 'Whit aboot it?' Mind you, in the second half he smashed in a beauty of an OG and had to listen to the hoardes singing Willie, Willie, Willie McVie..Karma's a bitch.

Dezz 184 Report post Posted June 17, 2015 Cash Convertors have been very supportive, however, they probably dont fit our new owners community vision. They are basically a pawn shop and Les maybe feels that we should be moving in a different direction. Not sure if it's been mentioned elsewhere but MFC Twitter confirmed last night that we will have a new sponsor this season. Looking forward to the shirt reveal and hoping for a diagonal stripe. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joewarkfanclub 876 Report post Posted June 17, 2015 Joe Wark and Willie P are my all time Motherwell heroes. Only Tommy Coyne, Doogie and Faddy have come close since. Would be a great tip of the bunnett to that team IMO...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would be great to have a sponsor that is not gambling, alcohol or money lending related, however, I do realise that these are the type of businesses that are currently thriving in the UK.

Willie P and Bobby Graham were a partnership made in heaven. And still smile when I think of Jim McIlwraith - if I remember correctly, he used to wear his shorts way down his legs compared to everyone else. Surprised we're changing the strip after a year, but if it's not the band, I'll happily go with a diagonal. MON RA DOSSERS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
