What was your most hated regular home or away kit? (not including those sometimes naff looking one-offs for charity or testimonials)

Personally, I hated this one. Bland, insipid, looked like a lower league football kit (Mansfield Town or someone) not a rugby shirt. Weird checkerboard pattern on the collar for the home and away (black and white on the away made it look like a plod's neckerchief).



Some horrible defeats in it too. Ended 9th with only 8 wins. Had a crop of mediocre imports: the infamous Dallas Mead and a few unmemorable Pacific islanders. Lots of management changes etc... but worst of all was this shirt. So minging I couldn't bring myself to buy it.

Always disliked these three. First two away shirts are just boring and plain, nothing about them at all IMO.

And the 96 home shirt is dreadful, with the clash of the vee and the irregular hoops - but it is the shirt the seems overly synonymous with Saints (due to the success at the time) when shirts get discussed or your see replica retro things being made like coasters/cushions/towels etc, they are all in this design.

This Bradford one was basically an Acid Trip meeting a Migraine. Still owned one though. Ha!



Or the one we curiously brought out to raise money for a Charity that doesn't operate in the UK.

That black one is a classic of the O'Neill's "it's 5pm on Friday, this will do" genre.

Looks like it could be a Widnes shirt, which I imagine is as much a no-no for a Saints fan as it is for a Wire.

To me, Saints away is pale blue with a dark blue V, as worn by Mal Meninga of course.

Can’t post pictures but Trinity’s black and lime green away kit in 2018. I’m all for something different for the away kit but that colour scheme was rank.

I can’t post a picture but in the 70’s when Fartown were brassic someone donated a white shirt with a yellow V which you could barely see Just looked ‘mucky white.’

It was horrendous with plain white shorts and white socks I remember us wearing it at Clarence St when we played York ...

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Frederick Douglas:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_30596.jpg

Some mad get thinks this is worth over a hundred queens. Apologies, can't do pictures since the demise of Tiny Pic.

Definitely remember that kit, pretty sure they turned up in Wilderspool in it (or maybe that was just some of the fans).

Pretty sure they also messed up what (to my mind is) one of the classic rugby league shirts by lobbing blue diamonds all over the home shirt too.

Either of these horrors for Hull FC, both from the thankfully brief Hull Sharks days.

The 90s was a different time! icon_smile.gif

Despite fond memories from it being the shirt worn in our only SL play-off win, this felt like it was designed by committee... and via text message, possibly.

I thought this was, while bland and fairly inoffensive, also a bit crap.

One of the best ever that. Miles better than the 2011 boil wash or 2014 Hull KR shirt we experimented with.

Wasn't a fan of the 98 kit but mainly due to the crest change.

Worst one though goes to this effort.
