Cerise, that's the word you're looking for.

Yep, essentially plain white, with a blue collar & cuff trimming. Our last 15 have all looked like someone in Yr 3 Art class is trying a bit too hard.

In my opinion the Kits have gone from good (Big Sam era) to complete shite (now)

The shite truly started with that last one under Megson. (Last reebok Main Sponsor)

Sam used to have some say over kits.

To my knowledge, nobody since has had such a thing/interest to have.

Really ? Who's Camdall .... & what's the lion doing there ... & why that pale blue.

That would never sell in Bolton.

Elephants ! That's what we want !!

I thought that one was ok too.

Better than the dross from more recent years by some measure.

That training bra one from a few seasons ago was god awful when it came out. Strangely now though when I see it it doesn't look too bad. :?
