Given the propensity for teams wearing stripes getting relegated from the Prem I sought salvation in our away kit. Alas it turns out solid green is the colour for underachieving, Plymouth being a prime example, Mexico and Nigeria should both win more than they do and can't think of many more save for the classic German change strip, Wunderbar! C'mon you stripey uber Horn weltmeisters!
So we have three goalkeeper kits? They showed a red one with the home kit, Foster and Gomes wore blue in the friendly, and now this?
Remembering the disastrous Manu grey shirt where none of the platers could see each other against the crowd, that green shirt looks very much like something that would blend into the background a lot. May be useful as a handy excuse any time we lose wearing it!
I was fearful about a green kit but it looks fairly bright and not OTT. Much better than boring red or white. A change is as good as a rest as my old mum used to say.

As was Solvite. https://media.*****images.com/photos/undated-mark-falco-of-watford-in-action-during-the-fa-cup-sixth-round-picture-id1633658
Probably will buy both. Haven’t done that in many years but I genuinely love both home and away kits. Top work adidas.
First kits I've actually liked for a number of seasons. Home kit still looks complete and utter ****. Still overpriced nonsense considering it probably costs a couple of quid to make in China.
Instead of giving fans who went to all 19 away games a shirt, why didn’t the club buy us a striker so we can score an away goal?
I think it's quite nice and different but just can't get it out of my head that people would think I'm walking around in a goalkeepers top, which unsettled me more than I care to admit.
Went to hornet shop today. Love the numbers on the shorts. Think this is new unless I’ve gone soft upstairs.
The first major club to have shirt sponsors were Liverpool.. with Hitachi in 1979. They weren't the first club in the country though, that was Kettering Town in 1976. Though they were immediately ordered to remove the sponsor by the FA. https://www.campaignlive.co.uk/article/history-advertising-7-first-sponsored-football-shirt/1058182
After last seasons away kit steal from another team, it's happened again this year. Our away shirt is a Slask Wroclaw shirt with a Watford badge slapped on it. Sick f this templated, unoriginal c r a p https://www.przegladsportowy.pl/pil...roclaw-cracovia-relacja-i-wynik-meczu/nb5nq96
Arsenal first had JVC on their shirts in 1981.. 2 years after Liverpool's Hitachi. http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Arsenal/Arsenal.htm http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Liverpool/Liverpool.htm I hadnt thought of it before but shirt sponsorship was dominated by Japanese electronics companies in the early days. Man United also with Sharp.
Not so much 'The Envy Of Others', more akin to 'The Others Look Questioningly At WFC For Daring To Wear The Same Kit'. Not quite as catchy a slogan if I'm honest so that's probably why they Adidas went with the former.
