Blackburn needs a change and West Ham has to get rid of that nasty color scheme. This year's Arsenal though. . . . .don't like it. The away one I can't even put in words.

I like Blackburn's home kits...their away blue is nice, except, I don't like the funky half-sleeves. It looks like they have improved on their road red shirts this year, too...even though you can't find their reds on the website at all...

It's always great to see an expert - in this case a Wiz fan - weigh in on the subject of crappy kits. It really goes without saying, but your team looked like a bunch of effing clowns during their first several years of existence.

(It's like when a Leeds fan offers his opinion about dirty players - you figure he's an expert, so listen to what he has to say.)

Look, the new Arsenal away kits suck. I personally think Nike screwed them, and I'd be seriously pissed if I was an Arsenal big-wig and compared what they came up with for us versus what they designed for Man United. But no one team has a monopoly on crap kits. Arsenal have had worse in the past:

So have Man United:

Liverpool's new away kit is about as bad as Arsenal's:

I'm not a big fan of Leeds yellow away jerseys this year. I'm coming around a bit on the new Liverpool aways, but I hated them at first.

As bad as Arsenal's home and away kits are this year...in the last 10 years they have definately had better looking kits than Manure or Liverdrool (thanks to the early years with Addidas...don't know what they hell the designers for the other two teams did ....they had Addidas too!?!?!?).

I disagree, and totally unbiased, I think Arsenal's new home kits are pretty sharp. I like the red on white combo. Granted, nothing else needs to be said about the away kits. I kind of think man utds third blue kit is kind of cool, and so was sunderlands away last year.

Okay, so we have established that everyone hates the Gunners away kits...but who else has kits that just make you wanna puke?? All biases aside...

Well, biases aside... the Man Yoo 3rd shirt is pretty sweet. And the new Arsenal home kit isn't that bad IMO, although they should've gone back to the white collar from a few seasons back. That collar used to tie the rest of the shirt together so much more nicely than the red collar did, particularly on the final JVC shirt. That might be my favorite home shirt in the last severla seasons.

As for Arse's road kit... fuhgedaboutit. I don't think they've come within two time zones of having a really good road shirt. ;)

I didn't know that the Vodaphone was in silver until just last Saturday:
