A question for those who know their history

[jegerpenge]

has there been any season that we have won the league with blue aways? i was just wondering because i can't remember

Good question - has there been any season that you's have won the league with blue aways. What the biscuit are you on about?

I don't think we've ever won anything in a blue shirt. The Blue "Flash Gordon" shirt may have been the 3rd shirt in 97/98, but I believe that's as close as it gets. We've worn blue quite a few times in CL matches and the general outcome has also been less than spectacular.!

I see where you're going with this jegerpenge! More simply, why would we want to adopt the colours of one of our closest rivals? If Nike must mess with the colours why can't they at least make the sleeves yellow? I guess the problem comes from keeping this seasons yellow and blue as the 3rd kit? If they don't go back to gold they have to use a different colour.

Heck! I'd rather see a white body with red sleeves than all blue! Actually, now I think of it, with all the current comparisons with Ajax of the 70's would that be such a bad idea?

i'm just very afraid of these blue jerseys. i think they're a curse and in any case, i hate us wearing blue. yellow should be the away color, always always always. this should not be allowed to change for any greedy corporation or their cookie cutter jerseys

I guess Nike had to do something to make up for the massive drop in sales for the Air Jordan line.Why mess with my Gunners?!?! Bastards.
