Unan Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 With a purple away GK kit I assume we can't have P&L outfield kit? Hopefully we have it as a third as I love it & think it's something genuinely true to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 Could we not have the green gk kit if the p&l shirt is mostly purple with lime trim/collar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say that there is no such thing as an away kit, it's a change of kit. I would guess it's an error in the way that the article is written Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 GK usually just wears a kit that doesn't clash with the opposition, more just a case the green one will be worn predominantly. We won't always wear the purple one for away games just like our away kit doesn't get worn at every away game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS4 on Tour... Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 Hopefully not - never got caught up in the hype around our purple and lime stuff - other clubs wore purple and lime way before us (eg Forest) yet some City fans still insist its ‘unique’ to us ....

One Team In Keynsham Posted June 29, 2019 Report Share Posted June 29, 2019 We should scrap purple and lime once and for all. Dreadful kit colour scheme. And yes, I was there at Liverpool.

Lack of Action Man Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 It is a shame we've dropped a purple/lime away kit as I do agree it is something which is bizarrely identifiable as unique to us. However, I don't mind this season's black away kit too much... so long as black/white away kits don't become a trend again - we're pretty limited in the amount of variability we can do with a blood red home shirt, so bland/boring variations of white & black away kits never do it for me. Combine that with the fact that when I first started watching we went through a phase of wearing either yellow/green or all green away kits - this to me should be our go to when Purple & lime needs to be rested.

Admin phantom Posted July 2, 2019 Admin Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 Problem is at one time it WAS just us that had this kit, but more and more sides were using it next season Yeah it is memorable for Anfield, Tinnion from the half way line at Stoke and the season we won the league but apart from that it has no history with our club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 They club mix it up to ensure they sell more shirts. Not everyone who buys the home shirt is going to get a new one every season, after all, it's just a red tshirt. Same likely applies to the away shirt.

The Nest Egg Posted July 2, 2019 Report Share Posted July 2, 2019 I really like purple and lime but feel it’s time for a little break from it. Last season’s one was a tad garish and it’s good to mix it up. Personally I would have liked to see a yellow and green one either like the Hirerite one from 89/90 or even the yellow and green third kit from 90/92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
