Ordered it as soon as they went on pre-sale and got back a confirmation e-mail. Saw the updates from the club saying the kit would be arriving soon and got my 3rd shirt a couple of weeks back (by post) so was hoping the home top would be ready to collect from the shop before the pre-seasons (or at least the first home one) - and even more hopeful to have it for tomorrow since several people have now received theirs in the post and it should be less work to just staple a receipt to it rather than have to bag it up and address it (or even just leave it in a pile of “reserved” stock and sort it out on demand). But my dad popped in earlier today and it’s still not ready yet, and with the enforced closure of the shop tomorrow as noted elsewhere, it’s going to be sometime next week at the earliest so I might not even have it for Villa or Kiddy.
Looks like the 3rd shirt will be getting an airing then.
Reminds me of the spin off from Mike Bassett, England manager, where he’s the manager of a football team based around Liverpool.
They were sponsored by Wirral Rubbish, which sounded like ‘We’re All Rubbish’.
I think the mascot was a wheelie bin too.
Ladies, have any of you on here bought the new home kit? Is so can you give me any idea on sizes? For your usual women’s size did you buy a medium, large etc?
Some our past kits have been excellent, some memorable. Others, not so, but over the course of a few games, despite the disappointment, they do grow on you. But not this year, I just cannot stomach this home kit.
I do hope that next year, the club ignore the noisy, tiny, handful who agitated for green to be incorporated into the strip, and return to pure red. Apart from several mostly unsuccessful seasons in the late 70’s, and the last disastrous season, green has had no place in Walsall’s tradition or history. Get rid of it.
Walsall has no tradition or history when it comes to kits we’ve played in numerous style’s and colour’s over the year’s and not just recent year’s basically since the formation of the club
