Fortunate that we didn't make the FA Cup final last season - parading out in that ridiculous insipid salmon pink. To think for years I lampooned Cov fans for their ludicrous chocolate brown away strip. Won in the League Cup v Chelsea in it didn't we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Alex would also beg to differ. Remember the Man U debacle away to Saints in 1996? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was what -1982 or 83 time? and it was at the Bridge, so yeah, we must have done I guess. In which case, we never won in the league wearing it.

They’ve picked a kit you can no longer buy and they don’t have any related merchandise of Maroon too. Even when there is a chance to be gimmicky and cash hungry, they fcuk it up. The folks producing the fakes on eBay are gonna make a packet If your small or extra small there’s still some. However, if your larger you could by a couple and stitch them together. If your extra extra extra larger just by a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oxtonfox Posted 28 April 2021 Share Posted 28 April 2021 I would prefer we wear white shirts and shorts for the game as we are FA Cup virgins. We will have lost that virginity by the evening though. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah - ok, no worries Stan. But I did as usual go off on one about the pink, which I detested. No, never even mentioned the maroon, that was another conversation. Not a fan personally - but I agree, it's not an issue. Of course I'd prefer us to turn out in all blue, sorry, blue and white. (Don't get me started on the gold trim either).
