I can't tell you how much I want that badge to be the new badge. I've been ok with our ribbons shite, but that is a proper badge.

Hopefully so do we. It looked bloody awful, esp. with the white shorts.

I have to agree. White shirts the best in a while; black/blue best away shirts in a while; grey thirds, well, no.

Not great, but the only one I can find. Shop is even shitter than I remember, though I do seem to recall it being extended later.

Went in one weekday afternoon with my Mum who wouldn't let me have whatever it was that I had wanted at the time. The bloke running the shop followed us out of the shop and gave me a programme from Peter Thompson's testimonial. So pleased that I forgot what I originally wanted. My Mum did buy me that shirt on another occasion though. 8)

If we play in it won't we find it difficult to see the players ? That was SAF's claim 15 or so years ago with the Redsox.
