I don’t think it’s too harsh to say after today I’d seriously consider dropping them all

    Nowt to do with the kit always think superstition is for weak minded people. Wouldn't wear it me self but it had no impact on the result today if we had a green, blue or yellow top on Phillips still headers wide from 6yards out and dkd still headers over when it's easier to score.

    ‘Barbie Pink’ as the Cambridge commentator endlessly called it. Hardly our lucky charm is it?

    Most football fans have superstitions, doesn’t mean they are weak minded.

    As said in the match thread, it looks terrible and you can't make out the charity, therefore negating the whole point.

    The fact we can't win in it only adds to my hope that we never see it again.

    Played well enough today and Nwakali looks class. Frenchie dawdling on ball cost us early when I think if we’d have scored first we’d have battered them. Three gilt edged chances spurned to win it second half but agree about the pink kit. It’s a jinx….bin it off!

    Nothing at all wrong with the kit other than whoever decided in the colour of the breast cancer sponsor.

    If that was red or black and stood out more it’d be fine.

    I don’t mind the pink at all.

    And this jinxed, unlucky thing is a load of ******** isn’t it, let’s be honest.

    The kit is abominable!
    As said previously; why the hell can't we play in "our" traditional colours?

    We are Barnsley. We play in red shirts and white shorts. If there is a clash we change. In the past there has been some very good change strips. The present off-white mucky underpants kit is poor. The pink just looks ridiculous. Nothing to do with jinxes. It’s just better on My Little Pony.

    Well if we need to sell lots of pink kits still then that's the reason we don't play in Red, simples really
