New "125" years home shirt for 20/21 is out... A massive 5 minutes has gone into designing it.

My take on it, they should of made Umbro/Betway glossy claret (like the TIWFC shirt), the badge should also just be hammers.

Yawn, identical to the 2015/16 one & very similar to four or five that we've had over the years.

1999/01 for the win!

Yeh FILA one is my favourite as well, I own 3 of the original 99/01 Fila shirt but all are either too small or brittle so I've just purchased a "replica" from abroad.

Quick mockup of what I wanted, the Umbro/Betway would be glossy like on the TIWFC shirt

That's a decent one & an old school sponsor.

Earliest bit of branded kit I still have's a now paint/oil/general crap covered Pony sweatshirt from circa '96/'97.

There's a pic somewhere at my parents of me on the first day of a new school year with a WH hold-all in the early '80's - shame I haven't still got that as it'd be quite retro cool now (suspect it probably feel apart by Xmas though).

I actually really like it - you can’t get away from the sponsor’s logo because £££ - the rest of it is nice and simple and harks back to the origins of the club.

I think that the only thing I would change would be to get rid of the London text on the badge - always been pointless IMO.

Anyone confident for this evening or have we all lost interest?

I am a glutton for punishment, so I'll watch us play Chelsea as we always do so well against them... But I really don't give a toss about football at the moment, it just isn't the same. I like watching live at the ground so I can actually see what is going on for myself, not what the cameras show us as that does not give you the full picture of the game.

I saw something interesting, think it was an Everton fan... Football isn't back for the masses who actually spend a st load of cash going to games and having their days out, it's just back for armchair fans who don't truly know what following their team is.

Well tell the Everton fan that that is a crass statement. wink

1980-83 Home and away for me, first and last kits I ever had. I can still remember that horrible static nylonness of them. hehe

Mum got me the West Ham away kit from Booby Moore's shop, came with a lovely message and signed pictures of himself, Hurst and Peters. Very nice touch...

I was paraphrasing as I just saw it the other day, it wasn't as blunt as that laugh

This, 100% (without bothering to watch). Will note & moan accordingly as usual though biggrin

We'll put out an unmotivated, unfit, poorly assembled & prepared team; fail to have any influence on the game, make no changes & lose again.

Moyes out.

I remember Bobby Moore’s shop in Green Street, opposite the main entrance to UP.

I`d consider it progress if we manage to trouble their keeper at some point this evening.

Really can`t see anything other than a scoreline that reads Nil:Several.

We've managed four shots on target over the last two games & scored zero goals in over 4.5hrs of football.

We're starting again without a striker as our £45m striker is injured.

Expectation = fk all.

COYI

Fortunately I've Weird Science on Blu-ray to enjoy.
