Kit for Southend

Do not normally care which kit we are playing in at an away game, as I do not feel the need to wear matching shirts with the players.

However what kit are we likely to wear on Friday. Bearing in mind Southend play in blue and all our kits have blue in them, are we going to have to release another kit for this game?

I have been saying this ever since the blue/yellow striped kit was brought out as there are a number of clubs in our division who wear blue or blue /white stripes. I cannot understand the logic of those shirts and would have preferred a completely different colour and would have suggested the flourescent kit of either Chelsea or Barcelona as is now worn by Oldham away (against Leeds).

Southend Have 3 shades of blue on their home shirts, but navy blue shorts and socks.

I reckon home kit for this, but it will be interesting when we play Colchester, Bristol Rovers or Huddersfield away


Every away team should play in all YELLOW if home kits clashed, it would make things easier

Like in the 50s goalkeepers had to wear either red, green or blue as yellow was reserved for international games or like table soccer all home teams wear blue and all away wear red. end of problems with clashes, end of extra revenue for clubs.

Mind you the league could insist that all 3rd choice kits be a single colour like yellow or green so as to ensure no clashes.

What I don't understand is why we don't wear the stripes at places like Crewe where there is no colour clash?A change of shorts and socks only,methinks.

Just far enough away from LDC

then we would end up like those american sports where away teams wear the same colour (e.g. white). Ice hockey has that and all kits are made by reebok so as a home fan you always see your team in their colours playing a team in white (although trim in the main colour is allowed).

Yeah Go Soccerball:unclesam:

I really like the away kit, but it's been ruined by that horrid logo!
