witchfindergeneral Posted June 25, 2024 Report Share Posted June 25, 2024 Would love to know which fans were consulted on this kit, it's horrendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted June 25, 2024 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2024 I thought nothing could be worse than the mid 90s jester kit or the 22/23 abomination but that tops it. Absolutely utterly howling and yet again we p1ss about with our vintage and classical home colours. And before anyone says “who cares what we play in” I care! I want to see my club playing in its traditional home kit. Absolutely awful. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the fans ever properly consulted with kits nowadays? With the ‘Dundee United’ training kit and now this shanner you really do wonder?

sailor_h Posted June 25, 2024 Report Share Posted June 25, 2024 I’ve got to say I love the new strip. Thinking of getting one & it’s been years since I’ve said that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretzel Posted June 25, 2024 Report Share Posted June 25, 2024 I actually love it. It is nice to get a change every so often, hated the 80s throwback a few years back mind you. In less than a year it will be etched in the annals of time as Paul McG will be holding aloft the 2025 Scottish Cup trophy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The white trim, and my usual moan the sponsors logo ruins it. Just a plain claret and Amber top and for me it's a decent strip. With the white trim however it's hideous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamwell Posted June 25, 2024 Report Share Posted June 25, 2024 I like it, think it’s really smart. Can totally understand why it’s not going to be universally loved though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Stall Posted June 25, 2024 Report Share Posted June 25, 2024 Feared the worst seeing the comments before i saw it. I dont think its that bad. Certainly dont love it but dont think its horrific. We have had worse. * reserve full judgement till i see it in tje flesh What is horrific is the shitey strobe video for it that popped up on the clubs social feeds. How is anyone meant to see it if its set in a dark room with stobe lights flickering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless my eyes deceive me it’s a fluorescent orange and as a change they’ve a fluorescent yellow. I think officially it’s ‘coral’ but it’s basically a Dundee Utd kit with a Motherwell badge. I’m not overly fussed with the training gear tbh but the home kit is something that is important to us as a club. It’s our identity and we have a set of colours which are instantly associated with Motherwell FC in Scottish Football. Why then we keep trying to “do something different” or recreate strips from over 40 years or so ago is beyond me. And yes, I get the kit makers and the club trying to make money argument to a point, but as I’ve always said the fans who are going to buy the strips will generally buy the strips regardless of what they look like and the ones who aren’t won’t buy it. You don’t see Celtic or Newcastle or Leeds Utd or Aberdeen or Hearts constantly trying to “do something a bit different” and buggering about with their traditional home kits, I just wish we could take a leaf out of their books.

steelman1991 Posted June 25, 2024 Report Share Posted June 25, 2024 I didn't think the last few weeks could get much worse - now they've managed to top it. Thankfully I'm not the "target audience". Its boggin' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted June 25, 2024 Report Share Posted June 25, 2024 I love/hate the new white/claret shorts and love/hate the claret/black/amber socks. I always loved/hated the hoop/half hoop/no hoop tops and the new collar is class/gantin'. The sponsor's logo is cheap/OK/classic and the trim needs no change/tweaked/binned. Just the weans/nobody/everyone will be buying this. Congratulations/Are you on drugs/WTF? to all involved/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said to me that looks like a Dundee Utd kit but if you're telling me it's nothing of the sort when you see it in the flesh then I'll certainly take a closer look.
