Late 60s was the best time aesthetically for football kit in my very well informed and respected er I mean humble opinion.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
I vote change kit back to all blue like best period in 80s.

Blue and White stripes are quintessentially Brighton - both on it's deck chairs and it's football team. Leave both alone please.
No, no, no, no, no! I don't want us to look like a poor man's Chelski. Didn't like it in the 80s either.
Please, please, please can the board spare a few extra quid next season and pay for stripes all the way round (not on the shorts though - that was awful)!

Yes, and perhaps we could change GOSBTS for Keep Right On To The End Of The Road.

I agree. A definite no from me for all blue, all white or white shorts or blue with white sleeves. Stripes please!
Keep the stripes, I say. There was great disquiet when we lost them on promotion to the top flight. I recall someone at the club saying stripes were 'so third division', but many of us felt that the stripes were always part of our identity. Would Newcastle lose their stripes? I think not! I feel better for that. Perhaps a poll?

Yes, we were div four champions in 64/65 season wearing the blue kit with white arms. I really liked the white away kit we had with blue cuffs and round neck. Overall I like the pin striped kits of 84/85 and a modern version would be ok. The derby one looks pretty good too. Overall I don't think the stripes matter that much - I think our original couple of seasons were in plain shirts and we moved to stripes in 1904/5 when my granddad played for us.

Think the fact that in blue we stayed in 1st devision and got to fa cup final. Beat Man u and Arsenal playing in blue. So really depends how you look at it.

Ou home kit is blue and white stripes. Thats it. And yes i know it wasn't our first ever kit. I am less dogmatic on the away but think it should be yellow

Actually it does look quite good on reflection. I am a blue and white man though, sorry

That's not the plain blue shirt that we wore from 1980-83. It's an alternate blue shirt that we woreoccasionally between 1977 and 1980 - at Orient once, at Tottenham a couple of times (as shown), Southampton once and a few other places. Made by Bukta, as the stripes of the day were.
