Airdrieonians home kit is fantastic, all we'd need would be to add some black trim & the job's a good 'un.

I quite like the new shirt, something different and still pays homage to the red stripes. I don’t think Airdries kit would work as a third option anyway as there’s as much red and white as the home shirt. Looks like a retro Rugby League shirt to me in any case.

Must admit my first thought was "Why?".  Hopefully it'll make the club some money especially in the run up to Xmas but a traditionalist like me prefers to see the team play in the usual red & white shirts where possible and the usual away kit is an adequate alternative.

Without looking at every other team’s current shirts, the only potential clash of both shirts I can think of would be Aldershot.

I thought the idea of a third kit was for when neither of the first two avoided a clash. I can't imagine how that could happen with our first two kits.



PS. Before I'm enlightened, bear in mind I'm not naive enough not to appreciate why this has to happen.

I think I was hoping it would be something understated I felt I could wear away from matches as casual wear but I suppose we've got the tee shirts etc for that?

I’m sure the main consideration was does it look good & will the younger elements of our Fanbase like to wear it, the answer to both those questions is yes IMO so it’s done it’s job.
