It is our clash strip - as such I don’t mind it - but - I am confused

We are being out cheered and wearing the away strip - I was sure I didn’t drive to Sleepy Hollow

I actually like the colour scheme, just not the stickman. A white strip up the middle of the front would look better.

I like our little stick figure but this jumper looks really unprofessional. It looks like it was designed by the toilet cleaner.

I think that falls under the remit of the regular cleaner

You children under 70 probably didn't see Roger Moore in his famous role in the TV series "The Saint".
The stick figure with a halo was the emblem of the show.

I suspect that the show is now so old that the stick figure is out of copyright and can be used free.

I’m assuming you are joking about this right?
Or are you just not aware of our logo from the 70’s to the 90’s?

Love the stick figure and, yes, remember Roger Moore before he was Bond - despite not being 70. Great emblem, but use it sparingly on guernseys imo. Good for stickers and the like.

I'll take that back and apologise, I rushed when trying to fit toilet in the sentence. I guess our club doesn't have enough coin to hire a credible graphic artist.

It rings a vague bell that we couldn’t continue using the stickman because the TV series had copyright. Is that right? Maybe misremembered or an urban myth

Love this jumper, and I've bought one.

The team should wear it on the many future occasions we will beat the teams we especially dislike....to stick it up them even Moore.

I thought it was ok. Maybe stands out a little more than our other jumpers against some teams, which is good for the viewers and players.
