Am I missing something here @Gt Yarmouth Shrimper, or should there be an 'e' on the end of the word between 'on and 'seem' above? At the moment it reads a bit seedy.
 
We won’t ever get yellow as part of our home kit, as it’s associated to Vic Jobson. It’s always navy blue & white.
 
Just had the club e mail with 70 % off what looks like the clear out of existing stock .Quite tempted apart from the jinxed kit this year.....but will we be in Navy next season if I buy some of it. Favourite kit was always the deep almost black navy of the late 60s followed by the Dave Smith era blue,white and red.
Is it time for a colour change and re brand as blue doesn't seem to be a lucky colour in our history?

We did try all white one season I believe around 1960 and let's not forget the yellow shorts were a total shock in the 80s.....as this photo shows you can change the colour of your favourite shirt without upsetting peopleFB_IMG_1588193278691.jpg

I'd be upset if we had Rod Stewart in our most traditional kit ever!

And your photo proves nothing because it was the usual QPR kit but somebody forgot to stick the white hoops on.

From my brief check on the club shop all that seems available is either boys or XXL sizes.
 
Also ! I'm praying we have a white and blue away kit next season ! I'm still in love with the away kit from the championship

We haven't had a paying sponsor on our shirts since the 2013/4 season, and that was the last year of a company that started sponsoring us in 2006 so I don't think that there is a queue forming. Morality aside we did well to get Paddy Power but we were part of a bigger marketing ploy, not the focal point.

We have had a paying sponsor on the back of the shirt. One that has also sponsored the south stand and the centre circle lounge. Not a small sponsorship and a true Southend United fan.

Yeah sorry on reflection I wasn't very clear on my point. My point was that we are securing good sponsorship deals and there has been good reasoning behind not selling the front of shirt sponsors, MD was so that Ron could get our wage allowance up so we were within financial rules. The prostate cancer sponsorship I think had something to do with getting a closer relationship with the council and forwarding the stadium plans. There was a fundraising special Q&A with Ron and Chris Powell for prostate cancer and the Mayor was there as she was/is a patron of the charity. It seemed like they were forming very close ties and she was extremely grateful for the money that was raised on the night. I think we do have a decent commercial dept that can sell what is available, I suspect the front of the shirt has not always been there to sell though.
