To be fair, as a portsmouth kit I think ours is nicer.

From what i've seen of the public reaction to our kit, I wouldn't be surprised if it is wins some sort of 'best shirt of the season' poll

It's not the end of the world, of course its not and it will only be for 1 season as we'll change it next year. I just prefer blue and white stripes. And even if people say its nice for a change, or its a nod to our 83 relegation season, thats fine, but surely people must be able to recognise that blue and white stripes is part of the club's very identity. So rather than being precious, the people who are irked by it feel like we've lost something that makes us "us". But yes I'm sure we'll return to stripes at some point, so no harm long term.
I'm sure we will. It simply isn't true to suggest we've only EVER played in stripes though.
Look through these: http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Brighton_and_Hove_Albion/Brighton_and_Hove_Albion.htm
We started (as BHAFC) in solid blue and I make it TWENTY SEVEN of the club's 119 seasons, we have strayed from traditional stripes.

Folk annoyed there is little difference between us and Pompey here.
Except there is.
Two divisions.

Definitely dampens the whole 'unique kit' vibe Brighton had been pushing for this one... Still love it though.

As much as I think ours looks better, that has made me dislike the collar more.

I've never said that we haven't played in just blue before. And even if we have on occasion played in just blue, I think its fair to say our blue and white stripes are part of our identity as a club. If you asked most other football fans around the counrty to name something about Brighton & Hove Albion (Family Fortunes style), I think blue and white stripes would be the top answer. So I think it's understandable that some people don't like the new kit. But in the grand scheme of things its not a big deal. You can definitely tell it's the offseason when we're all bickering over things like this.

We definitely won’t get promoted this year either
I didn't know Portsmouth signed Conchita Wurst.
