Keepers kits

[est.83]

Following that thread on the "Ask the club" forum I decided to count how many different shirts have Michel Kuipers worn this season. And the results are here (I don't have facts regarding Stoke game):

1. vs Reading (Watford, Leicester, Wolves, Cardiff, Burnley, Watford, Rotherham)

2. vs Plymouth (Preston, Leeds, Crewe)

3. vs Wigan (Bristol Rovers, Coventry, QPR, Gillingham, Millwall)

4. vs Notts Forest (Tottenham)

5. vs Sheff Utd (Sunderland)

6. vs Wolves (Crewe)

7. vs Ipswich (Gillingham, QPR)

8. vs Sheff Utd

9. vs West Ham

It must be some sort of record!

quite like the sheffield united one , is it avaliable from the shop?

 

[Brighton Breezy]

I bought the green one with white sleeves and he never wears it.

I want my money back.

the white won is nice as it looks like a normal shirt. no padding

 

[Thimble Keegan]

The best quote I have read about his Kuipers' kits was after the game on Saturday where they said something like: "Their keeper looked like a professional cyclist who has forgotten his bike"

Made me laugh anyway.

Albion & England forever.

NINE kits! Do you think Michel has any say in this himself?

He is the Judy Garland of goalkeeping !

how long before he wears a nice pink number:safeway2:

Jeff banks is on the books as a consultant !

 

[JJ McClure]

I've got the grey one third down as a short sleeved top.

That's a fantastic array of shirts though, marvellous shouting scenes Michel

the first time he puts the red shirt in the wash with the white shirt most likely

 

[Lush]

The red one is more red than a VERY RED THING. At QPR he stood out like Rudolf's nose.

Is this a good thing for a keeper? Does it make it easier for strikers to bend the ball round you - and notice if you're out of your goal? Or is it best for your defenders to know exactly where you are?

 

[Scarface]

I wonder if this happens at other clubs? I cant see a reason why he has so many, surely a couple with SKINT on and a couple with Palookaville is enough? Or is Michel very fashion concious (sp?) and cant wear the same one too often!

 

[Stinky Kat]

Do you think the kit lady keeps putting the shirts on a hot wash with her nylon knickers?

 

[Mustela Furo]

Michel loves having a multi-coloured variety of shirts

I believe (unconfirmed) that he keeps one of each colour/style shirt for himself as memorabilia (presumably he reimburses the club for them!)

 

[est.83]

I'll bet Michel kept his eye on Mexican goalkeeper Jorge Campos...

Well... at least Kuipers is stylish!

 

[Wilka]

I've just brought the white one of the on line shop and got it printed! 15% at the moment can't be bad!


I've got far too many Brighton shirts. Oh well if i'm going to waste my money on anything it might as well be Albion stuff!
