Yassin has obviously wandered onto these boards by mistake. Someone please direct him to to the gangrene brigade site.

I see Bolton, Millwall, Crystal Palace and Newport will have Macron kits this season also... Here is Newports efforts!!

 

Wee pre season jolly to Newport for a friendly would be nice!

The “I would like to see us move to a different manufacturer for the 2014/15 season.” choice came last in the poll. I hope Macron can convince the doubters that they can deliver.

[Burn_Broomfield]

Last/this season's County shirts were good quality from Macron, but the sizing is very dubious.

[underboyleheating]

The "It doesn't bother me who makes our kit." was the top choice, which would suggest that people are not too concerned about who manufactures our kit. Overall I reckon Puma have produced some good kits in their tenure.

Sash kits;

• Aren't something we've traditionally wore.
• Don't look particularly good (in my opinion of course) .
  
• Have very negative connotations in this part of the world.

Not really understanding the clamour for one tbh.

What a clown

I can hear the whooshing sound from this side of the Atlantic.

A sash is purely a design feature and any connotation to the orange order is just subjective. Our "claret sash" kit is still fondly remembered by Well fans of a certain vintage and to compare it to an "orange sash" is madness.

Wow.

You could always think of it as a 'Diagonal band' and I fail to see a clamour for anything.

Any word on when we'll get a glimpse of the new kit(s)?

I was thinking maybe at the last home game of the season (half time unveil?). Failing that we will need to wait until late June, early July when they will be officially launched.

['Wellfan 2k7]

Yassin - I made a suggestion. A suggestion that would do nothing but symbolise the best time to watch Motherwell play! It had and has no sectarian connotation whatsoever. By your logic, Wolfsburg should never play in this country, because of their diagonal stripe, amid fears of creating a mass Catholic-Protestant riot..

 

 

 

Back to our kit, I imagine that the kits will be unveiled within the next couple weeks since we open pre-orders in a little over 24 hours! Purely conjecture mind, but I think the club will want to get sales early!

Peru are a shower of dirty orange bastards, it has to be said.

[underboyleheating]

On looking at some Macron kits online, the appear to be in favour of the full on embroidered club badge. I have never been a fan of the sublimated printed style badge as they can at times cheapen the look of a top. Fingers crossed they go down this route (with full nipple protection on the reverse! ).

 

Newport top complete with embroidered badge...

 

[Ya Bezzer!]

I don't really like the sash style strip so I hope we don't get it.

 

I had a wee look and we only wore a sash for 3 years of our existence so it's not like it was anything more than a very minor fad.

My point wasn't really about the sash (although it seems to have taken on a life of its own), more about how the hoop rarely made an appearance in the 70s and 80s.

 

Having said that, I was lucky enough to watch guys like Wullie P play in the sash kit, so it does have good memories.

Agreed, as are River Plate. The Latin American clubs are bad for this sort of thing.

I think it's a safe bet that you won't see Motherwell wearing a home 'sash' top anytime soon. As for the away/third there is always room for a sash style top to make a reappearance. We seem to have settled on always having the signature claret band/hoop on our home tops for the foreseeable future.

Have you ever seen an orange walk?

 

I've seen a house fly.
