I've been so repulsed by the rumoured 2011 strips I've called the club to let them know they have my support on field - even if what they play in a strip that makes blind men and unborn children turn away in disgust.
I did renew for 2011 just hours before seeing these, and I felt obligated to let the club know that as a long time fan, a member of a few years and the owner of most strips they've played in that these will definitely not be added to the collection.
To quote Marge Simpson, "Nobody in their right mind would buy these, or accept them as gifts!"
The Wests Tigers staff member who responded to my polite call with great professionalism could obviously not confirm or deny that the 2011 playing strip was indeed the one that has been leaked, and emphasised that X-Blades have a very large input in jersey design.
They did, however, seem a bit miffed at the leak.
I was urged to reserve judgement until seeing one 'in the flesh', which is fair enough, but I just can't see these designs looking good anywhere - even the deepest depths of a cave on a moonless night.
On a good note, I hope they see Wld or Craegus' designs.
Wld - well done, the only comment I could make is to put the angled strips on the sides at the same tilt angle as the main double v on the chest.
