or is that A years scrumpy drinking in 4 days??

[baldrick]

Scrumpy is getting harder to find. You have to make the most of it when its available

[Saughall Robin]

Putting the Macc resemblence to one side, it just looks sh*te full stop.

It looks like a pub team kit.

How can we do that?

I always buy shirts for myself and Mrs Saughall but I'll be giving this one a miss I'm afraid - much too 'Moss Rose' for my liking.

I really think this is something the club should guage the fans opinion on.

The more people have a hand in choosing the kit, the more people will buy it.

Absolutely.  A lot of people have made it clear they won't buy it because it's macc, which is going to dent profits.  And whilst I respect the opinion of the 30 or so people on here isn't going to affect their decision that much, there can't be many people who buy the away kit as it?  Just seems like they're shooting themselves in the foot.

I'd personally be much more likely to buy it if it was black/white/yellow.

AFC Wimbledon have a competition where fans are invited to design their second kit, a short list of 5 is then chosen and supporters vote for their preferred choice. A good idea but a bespoke kit would cost a lot more I imagine.

[bighairedmike]

I have no problem with the kit apart from the M*cc resemblance. It actually looks ok in my opinion. However, can you imagine M*cc or Northw*ch having a red and white striped away kit??

It's the same thing. We're rivals for ducks sake. we shouldn't be wearing each others kits.

[The Red Baron]

To be honest the Macc thing doesn't bother me all that much, and I don't think the kit looks that bad.

It's more the fact that we've had a blue away kit since we've been in this league, and i'd like to see something different!

It obviously would be more costly for the club to let the fans design and vote for their own bespoke kits, but surely if the club put forward a selection of pre-designed prostar styles it would make very little difference to the cost, and the fans would get what they wanted.

[Narcissist]

Can we not change the white trim to black or red?

I think it would look pretty sound with red trim.

As it is though, its just too macc.

I hate to say this, but the board cannot allow this. Just for once, just one little tiny thing they could listen to the fans on. Change this strip.

IN FACT, I PROMISE HERE AND NOW THAT I WILL BUY A REPLICA AWAY SHIRT IF THEY CHANGE IT!!!

[Jezza]

I simply cannot believe that an Altrincham FC club board would choose a kit that is a replica of our closest rivals home kit.

Would any fan have sat down with the choice of those three kits and picked the blue one?

Beggars belief.

The yellow one is far more traditionally Alty away and would have got a good reception.....traditional away kits have always been all white or yellow or sky blue.

What's our home kit gentlemen?.......green and white f*cking hoops coz they're cheap?

What is going on in our boardroom? I'm amazed  Grahame Rowley who is an Alty fan through and through I believe and steeped in the trasditions of Alty diodn't say "hang on chaps....that's the colour of Macclesfield Town....Macc Town Geoff, they're our rivals....no they play in the 2nd division so you wont have come across them but the point is the fans might not like cheering on an Alty side that look like a load of sheepshaggers when they take the pitch...sheepshaggers geoff....oh forget it".

[altrincham]

f**king sheep shaggers!!!! 

[samba]

IN FACT, I PROMISE HERE AND NOW THAT I WILL BUY A REPLICA AWAY SHIRT IF THEY CHANGE IT!!!

Seconded

[macc8alty]

Its not 2 bad although i prefer the 1 we have at the moment and this 1 looks a bit too much like m*cc

Incorrect my plastic mancunian friend.  You'll notice the new Macc shirt comes complete with Coca Cola Football League badges on the side of the shirt and is produced by a world class kit manufacturer like adidas.

Again your behind us more than just on the pitch.

WE'LL NEVER PLAY YOU AGAIN!!!!

[baldrick]

Adidas, Nike, Reebok or Primark, it makes no difference. They are all made by Pakistanis in some desease ridden rathole in Asia.

[Jezza]

WE'LL NEVER PLAY YOU AGAIN!!!!

I'm so glad you pt that you daft sheepshagging plastic StokeCityite*....
