    It feels like we're supporting a different team at the moment.
    Get rid of the stupid pink, the unwashed grey.
    Please let's get back our traditional values.

    Did you say the same thing in the 70s/early 80s when they changed the socks to all white? Or was it ok then because it was part of a good era?

    I don’t think that’s the point he’s making. I saw it more as a question of why can’t we wear red when there’s no colour clash, ie we were playing against a team in blue and yellow yesterday. Quite a few around us questioned why we had our away colours on.

    I totally agree. I think we should play in Red whenever there isn’t a colour clash.

    Agree to the Home shirt first. Home and away.
    Grey if clash with Home teams Red.
    Pink. Bang in the bin. Awful. And not necessary.

    It's not mandatory to have a 3rd kit.
    Which begs the question. I wonder how many buy 2. Home and away, I'd understand to a degree. But 3rd kit or all 3. Its a no from me. And I just don't mean this seasons.

    we played in red shorts at Wembley in 2000. Never liked them since.

    Red shorts should be banned from Oakwell.

    That said "Shorts don't matter it's what's inside them that counts".

    Is 'dark' the colour of the shorts or the mood.

    I don't mind what color the socks are, as long as the players are not allowed to rip bloody big holes in the back.

    Don't mind if we go with white socks, really like hooped socks, don't mind bits of white and or black in the shirt such as trim etc but please go back to white shorts.
    Would imagine the kit has already been signed off now for next season, I did suggest on here can't remember who was gathering questions for feedback tbh but I suggested getting talented/creative fans to be involved in the design, run a competition, fan engagement etc, doubt it would happen.
    Haven't bought a shirt now for the past 2 seasons, I've just not liked them whatsoever.
