Palace look their best in the white shirt with blue and red sash - iconic and stylish. The original claret and blue stripes would be awesome for a season too. How about retiring everyone over 30 and starting a fresh fast team too! Thoughts?

Call me old fashioned, but I still think of Palace in claret and blue. Not saying I don't like the red and blue, it's just, well, a bit flashy. Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

If we stick with red and blue, then I’d like a bit more red in the kit. Perhaps red shorts again. Recent years seems to be 80% blue. Wouldn’t mind the sash again or the early 70s kit on a large claret and pale blue thick stripe, perhaps even in red and blue.

This was the kit I grew up with and I expect whichever kit you first watched us play in will be your favourite. Thought the sash was very distinctive.

a variation of this would work bigger stripes though. [Link] (without the swastika in the end) Edited by kingdowieonthewall (29 Apr 2021 8.27pm) Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents? Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

It's bad enough playing like we're a netball team, we don't want to look like we really are a netball team. No, retire the Sash Shirt along with the players who are past it.

How about make the stripe like a big flash of lightning like a zig zag half way up. Go really modern. Draught in some of our really fast youngsters and buy in some rally fast players. Change our nic name to the Lightnings We’d be so fast no one could see us. But that wouldn’t matter cos we can’t watch at Selhurst anyway. Telly can always play us in slow motion.
