If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

Call me old fashioned but I like the cherry & white hoops. I'll keep my gob shut and say nothing until I see the shirt though.

I think Wigan have realised that there is only so much they can do with cherry & white hoops so every 3rd year we're having something different. Personally I think it's a great idea. The old Puma kit proved to be a very successful and, in my opinion, an iconic kit. |

[size=100:2md8k3b3][b:2md8k3b3]'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.'

Something like thishttp://24.media.tumblr.com/0f27190c88352cf36c5b6e624929bf4e/tumblr_mx8zcrMhLE1sznheco1_500.gif" >'"
Looks good, reckon that's pretty much on the money.
Hopefully the sleeves have cherry on them as it's far too white for my taste. |

| Based on rumours, I'd guess one of these wouldn't be a million miles off.
I personally like the bottom right or top right.

Fair enough. Perhaps I'm just set in my ways and like the traditional Wigan look. |

I'm with you. The cherry and white hoops shirt with white or cherry shorts is what Wigan wear. Why mess around with it? The 2011 kit was dire, with the last two just right. Saying that there is only so much you can do with Cherry and white hoops surely applies to any club with a two colour scheme (Saints, Salford, Hull FC, Widnes). It never seems to bother Everton/Liverpool/MUFC/MCFC does it ?
You can add black edging, change the collar, the width of the hoops, have a watermark, change the location of the various badges/logos, etc.
You won't see New York Yankees, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Celtic, the All Blacks change their kit.
Wigan Warriors are an iconic world famous club. They should act like one.
Don't muck up an iconic kit |

Looks like one of Crystal Palace's kits when Malcolm Allison was managing them. A club with absolutely bugger all identity that tried to create one by having increasingly bizarre kits.

Could it not just be like this but in cherry and white?

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif |

Look like Hull KR if we use them, I'm more traditional in hoops and that's it, just a little tinker eg collar/no collar, wide hoops/thin hoops, white shorts/white shorts with a little bit of cherry on. |

I don't buy this "there's only so much you can do with cherry and white hoops". When you look at our kits on Bilko's shirt archive it,s clear that there's plenty you can do. It's also clear that the "alternative" home shirts have been crap. Not that I'm dead against a change every note and then if they can make it good!
