bring back Beaver! One off special shirt made by our old favourites

Lonsdale is just and example.
All I'm saying is, I personally think it's better to compromise and have a not-so-big manufacturer (Puma is a good idea) and have a custom-made kit specific to the Club - something that is Southend and Southend only. The Nike kits are OK but are mass-made and generic designs bought from Nike with our logo and sponsor slapped on later.

How about action figures of some Southend heroes with movable limbs and accessories - Tilly could come with changable hair in varying lengths for different stages of our winning streaks, Freddy with his caravan and Stan with Barbie doll and "slap-action" arms

But the way Puma are going, they're obviously trying to buy into that generic Nike style, look at all the Puma shirts for National teams for this summer's WC. All along the same style with just the colours differing, e.g. Ivory Coast, Italy etc. Still quite smart though.

A Darryl doll that really pi$$es (or a Neil Freeman one, for those of you with longer memories).

Presume that the Darryl doll will be lifesize.

I like the idea of reproduction programmes, but maybe of specific times/games. Such as when we won the 4th Div Title or the promotion year to Div 2 under Webby. FA Cup ties etc.

I would like to see a magazine produced of the players wives and girlfriends in canded poses around Roots Hall....

Can see it now - Mrs Barrett showing her wears in the directors box, Mrs Flahavan with her charlies bouncing in the wind by the East Stand Programme Hut and Mrs Maher with a root vegtable in the Far Post..

Any Chance Steve

Rare moment where I DID actually LOL!

Why not.....are you saying our players don't have a sense of humour?

Yes it is terribly generic but like it or not the Nike shirts do sell in numbers and the kids seem to like them.

On the other hand if you gave a 7 year old kid a Carlotti tracksuit for christmas would you expect him to:

a) Be thrilled to bits.

b) Burst into tears.

 

[Yellow Army]

or c) disown you

Seeing as we COULD be in the Championship next season, anyone reckon we could get a 'real' nike kit deal with them, not the nike teamwear kits that most sunday league teams have?

 

[Shrimper2thecore]

I dont think we can expect much to happen

I just really want a shirt that comemorates the occasion!!

For real nostalgia the club shop should start stocking toilet rolls - (perhaps with the Col Ewe and Wet Spam crest on each sheet) and good old fashioned wooden rattles.

Artful's mention of "Centenary Flat Caps" in another thread got me thinking...
