Saints Reveal New Away kit

Saints have revealed the design for their away kit for the coming season although its colour scheme won't please all.

Saints have revealed that their new away kit for 2015/16 will be a lime green shirt with a dark blue sash, this won't be a surprise to many as this design along with the home kit was leaked on the internet months ago.

The design won't upset too many in that incorporating the sash that was so popular a few years ago and harking back to our beginnings in the Victorian era it will please the traditionalists.

Most fans i speak to like the sash, but they also feel that red & white stripes is part of our brand as such and is the kit we are known for, that being the case using the sash in the away kit is a good move and is something that we should consider keeping year in year out.

Having said that the colour scheme is perhaps the issue that will divide some supporters, although I don't think many can argue that it doesn't stand out from the crowd, it is not colours that are associated with Saints.

I appreciate in this modern age we can't have it every way and if we are to stick with the stripes for the home kit then more leeway has to be allowed on the away kit in terms of colour.

Having said that I do like it, it is perhaps not a colour shirt i would wear, but it does look good in my opinion and the sash gives it a classy look.

Overall I would have preferred to see it in yellow and blue , especially as the end of the coming season will see the 40th anniversary of the 1976 FA Cup final an event that cemented yellow & blue as key colours in our history, but perhaps we can do something next year.
