Worst strip of the season.

Renamed in memory of John Hawksworth, a stalwart member who passed this day 2nd August 2020. RIP Mr Monkeybutt.

Sadly we must add the name of Kevin Minton, Aka Mr Ripper who passed 30/6/22. Kev was also Mr politically incorrect but a nicer lad you could never meet.

Worst strip of the season.

Savage probably designed it- he enjoys looking like a bellend- matches his personality!

Probably comes with a pair of oversized Pat Butcher earrings too. I believe Pat is from the Isle of Lesbos, I also share my birthday with her!

Well since I've joined the sisterhood (identifying as a Black Disabled Lesbian) I've found out a wealth of information - though have to admit that ticking all the boxes can be exhausting! :doh: :laugh:

Wealth of information....
What you really need is information on wealth. Then you can take over the club and lead us to the promised land.

that club seem to go out of there way to annoy people who do not follow the club owners narrative. the kits bad enough but made worse by the reasons they did it.

Isn't having an animal print designed shirt for your vegan football team a bit ironic?

I remember going to Pools in the sixties v Bradford Park Avenue and they wore a multi coloured striped shirt that looked more like deck chairs,

I see that the Borer have reverted to their light blue and white stripe 'deck chair' away kit of yonks back - and were actually turned over by Bradford last night - City that is.

Our current strip is a looker to be honest, other than the sponsor, which makes it a no from me. Aesthetically the logo looks good but no way I'd be going round advertising the bloke's company. And really, is Prestige the best sponsor we can get? Perhaps it is but I'd be much more reassured by new money coming in.

Pools should be sponsored by Greggs simply due to the number of shops in the town.

the question I feel needs to be answered is does the Prestige group pay to be the club's shirt sponsor or is this amount being given as a loan and reclaimed at a later date?

I would think the owner would put a fair bit into shirt sponsorship, But it will be recalled at a later date, Making it free PR.

Steady on Essex- you can think it, but you're not allowed to to say it out loud, and definitely don't write it down. Think you could be on thin ice, Sir. :shock:

I like what port vale have done, they went for a retro shirt without sponsorship, both their home and away strips are fantastic. No sponsorship on the shirts is the way forward for me.

At least they have an identity. Pools strips are nothing to write home about, as per usual.

at least ours look like something they are meant to, kits to play football in. if you want to be different as a club surely there is a better look than what they thought up. could be an age thing but not arsed if it is.
