Honestly the Hoover Logo doesn't bother me at all anymore, it's just part of our kit now.
Honestly i don't even know what i'd want on a kit now, i just hope they don't do the same as this year and have the same kit in a different colour.
I want 2 different kits........but to be honest i haven't bought a jersey in years now so my vote doesn't really count

I still maintain our best home and away kits were 2021's, despite the hoover badge... shame we were pretty gash that year! I even remember Barry or Terry mentioning how the away kit reminded them of the Cullen/Jiffy era of the Wire during one match.

Well anything is better than that monstrosity

I’ve seen a few pop up on ‘Wire on this day’ twitter page and the 2009 top white with the V was also nice. I still prefer the 2005 one as it was baggy like the old days.

Yes the one we won at Wembley with, I still have that shirt in my collection.

2005 shirt is still my favourite kit, loved the look and like you said, bigger fit and made of proper sturdy material rather than the cheap static crap everything is made of now a days.

to get those sort of brands, we need the sort of fans watching that spend that type of money.


do you not consider Hoover on those levels in terms of company standing?

the shirt with the bulge

Don’t know what that means I have the physique of a God But what strikes me most about that shirt it is a heavier better made shirt than what came after it.

Of course Hoover is a massive global brand, though Dyson is much bigger now most people still say they going to hoover the floor. My point is we need more of them. I agree with what you say about the fans and money it’s a bit of a chicken and egg thing need one to get the other going.

Never saw them posts was just a novice on here back then.

No player in any professional team is ever likely to wear a loose fitting shirt again, nor probably a shirt with a collar either.

If you mean you liked the shirt being bigger because it was a bigger fit on you, then if you still buy them now just buy a size up from what you normally would and you will achieve the same effect.

This feels like a Viz top tip.

No it was not that it was just imo better material. The match shirts were different than the fan ones and yes I know you could buy them also.
