Will it be blue...?

Same as Widnes' kit from this year but in blue and yellow I'd guess at.

| Given that ISC have just a handful of designs, I presume it will be the big V adorned by Cas, Hull and Saints in recent years.

| Quote: BuckleyStreetWire "Just wondering if whoever it was who contacted the club over the "seven clubs" thing ever received a reply from the club? And it is the badge we will be running with as a club for next season (with no fan consultation? which i find bizarre)?
Also any news on the kits for next year? what colours are we likely to have? Is it still ISC and do we still have Fly Emirates?(and will this still be a nice less cluttered front to the kit with just that on?...looks much sleeker than many other kits with seven odd jumbled up sponsors plastered all over the shirts).
Quite a few questions there, sorry!'"
Hi BSW. It was me who contacted the club, back in July. To their great credit, I got a response from Roger Draper within a day or 2.
He confirmed that "the 7 shields actually represent the 7 founding members ( or fathers as we call them ) of Warrington Wolves. I think members and clubs got lost in translation but happy to confirm that this was the thinking behind the heritage element of the new badge."
Personally, I'm chuffed, as it was my research that discovered the 'founding fathers', and led to the change in foundation date from 1879 to 1876

| Nice one, NtW. My name on here is what i would like the South Stand to be named. "The Buckley Street Stand" (with a possible nickname of "The Buck"icon_wink.gif for the street it's on.
Oh and name where the players get clean in the changing rooms as "The Harry Baths"!
I don't know if you're like me and would like us to drop "Wolves" completely from the club name? Get rid of the word "WOLVES" from the badge, incorporate "WARRINGTON" actually into the badge where "WOLVES" currently is instead of it hovering above the badge. We could keep the wolf's head and Wolfie but just be called "Warrington Rugby League Football Club" with a wolf mascott. That wouldn't bother me.
Anyway, looking forward to seeing the kits. Just a few days to go.

| I have mithered in the past to have a shirt similiar the classic Brian Bevan look, white with primrose/blue bands. Having now seen Leeds new shirts can't believe we haven't gone down that road if just for a change. When I hear talk of "the brand" I think of those shirts and "the Wire" maybe I'm just a grumpy old man now (57) but we haven't honoured our past as much as I feel we should, though the wall under the South stand is fabulous

Again this is something that crops up from time to time in terms of WHAT IS a classic warrington shirt, and does change from period to period, correct me if i'm wrong but is the one you're referring to the white shirt, with the thick blue band across the middle, and the yellow stripes above and below?
If so, we last attempted somethign similar during the custard splodge centenary shirt in 95, would that be a big seller? i don't know. Likewise a couple of people have mentioned the all blue shirts with just the W on the left breast. Again, i don't know if that would be considered a seller in todays climate.

Saw a blind man walking round with that on, his guide dog didn't look to happy though.

| Mr C, Times change and things move on but when I hear talk of "the Brand" I think of "the Wire" and those shirts you accurately described that we wore through most of my childhood and until Alex Murphy's second year in 72 I think. We have changed the shirt designs so many times that other than primrose/blue and white there is no such thing as a classic Wire shirt. Maybe members could be polled? We should settle on a design and stick with it. Saints don't have too much room for change but they sell plenty, in soccer Liverpool are all red, United red, white and black neither shirt changes too much but there are still subtle changes and maybe we should establish what our shirt or brand if you like should be and market it heavily over a period of years

| For me the one I hold with fondest memory is the Vladivar chevron. But as a shirt the 1990 Wembley season shirt resplendent with Warrington coat of arms.

| Mind you the Blue with Primrose W is not without charm as modelled by the superb Bob Eccles. What a forward he was.
Note we can clearly see we are playing Bradford here, even in B&W you can tell. This is the benefit of consistency.
