The club colours are cherry and white and we should play in them as much as possible. Away kits should be saved for when we are playing away to teams who wear similar colours to us to avoid kit clashing. I'm not bothered about the price of shirts or anything because I only really buy a shirt once every couple of years.

But its a Charity kit isnt it? or 3rd kit therefore agnostic of home/away allocation?

But that is my point. If you buy a 'charity' shirt the charity normally gets less than £10 from the sale. Keep your old shirt and if you really want the charity to benefit send them a chq, that's old fashioned like me so send them a £20 note and even use your head and tell the charity that it is a donation that is gift aid and the Govt via the income tax you have paid on the wage you earned to buy the shirt will have to pay this tax to the charity as well, another £5. What's not to like????

You must just to tell the charity your name and address then the taxman accepts your donation outright.

I get that but thats one view, of many views

The other way of looking at it from your view point is if the shirt was £40 for example and £20 was to charity well its like someone saying if you give £20 to charity the you get a shirt for £20 which sounds like a decent deal to me

I suspect the idea is to raise the profile too, i expect it to be a topic of discussion on sky for example of why they arent in their home kit so that brings it to the attention of the views of which there are x million

Mikes stat suggested they have worn the home kit half of the time, so i dont see as one game is that much of a greek tragedy
