With any remake, I would always wait until I see the product rather than pre-ordering right enough. The site is here: https://retrofcshirts.bigcartel.com/product/motherwell-1996-98-home-pre-order I've got the original but because teenage me wanted a 'loose fit' it's an XL and is like a tent on me now (as it was at the time). The silhouette doesn't really do anything for anyone. It's a really "boxy" fit compared with the shirts you get these days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression, as most are I think, that it's 2 games out after 12 cards but I can't seem to see his name mentioned on the SPFL disciplinary lists at all. Aye, 2 games. The SFA list was last published for 7th April. You would hope they keep the clubs better informed of current suspensions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm probably not the target demographic really, I'll buy a Motherwell top every season or two to get something new for Fives and to chuck the club a few bob, but it's wild to me that there's a third party market for Motherwell tops approaching £100. I mean, it's eBay but....oooooft! That £199 away shirt is listed on Depop as well... Edited April 27, 2022 by capt_oats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
well fan for life Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 What kind of idiot would part with literally hundreds of pounds for an original '94 away kit in their size that is absolutely mint condition? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're absolutely at it with their pricing though. Got this exact top in a charity shop for a tenner, along with the half and half top, also a tenner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazylegsjoe_mfc Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I've never been the biggest fan of claret away tops for some reason and for me, that one is up there with the worst of them. The jester strip is up there with the worst Motherwell home tops design wise, but it holds a certain nostalgia for me, as it was the strip we wore when I first started going to games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I love the Jester top. I hate all the haters hate it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desp Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 The jester top was absolutely fine, and I loved it when I was a kid. It was the shorts that made the whole thing look stupid. All in for the luminous away kit from 97/98 though. Get it done 'Flow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 (edited) I find the jester strip a weird one, like @crazylegsjoe_mfc it definitely has a nostalgia value. It was at the era before 'modern fitba' and you actually had a strip for more than one season. The other thing is that I think it's actually fine as a standalone top, maybe not a Motherwell strip, but as a jersey it's alright. For me it's really only when you pair it with the shorts for that harlequin effect that it looks a bit daft. Edit: Swear down I hadn't seen @Desp's post when I wrote that Also...Tommy Coyne (m'lord).

I remember poor Jamie Dolan being sent out at Half time to model it in front of the East Stand in a midweek game - he looked fucking mortified Also quite like it for nostalgia reasons - not so much at the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamMFC Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 The jester home and luminous away kit will always have a special place in my nostalgia filled head as it was those were the kits we were wearing when I started going to games. I'll never forget seeing it in person at my first game I went to in April 97 when we beat Raith Rovers 5-0 and the legendary Tommy Coyne got a double. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very similar timeline to me. That was the first game I saw us win. Had seen us draw 1-1 with Accies in the cup and concede a late goal to lose 1-0 to Hearts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handsome_Devil Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I actually clicked the link to vote with good intentions there then went um....I mean who on earth has had a good full season? Toss up between Kelly and KVV but if we're fair it's probably Watt and he fucked off four months ago! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
