Certified Legendary Thread Winged Guernsey Petition/Letter - #ReturnTheWings: WINGS RETURNED, PERIL RETURNED - JOB DONE!

[MIKE85]

I know we are focusing on just the wings but lets not be flippant about the colours. We are traditionally yellow and royal and I think that should not be lost in this discussion. Having said that Navy has become part of the landscape and I am happy it continues for the time being.

That is true, but only for the first 8 seasons, for the next 20 we have been royal, navy and gold. where does the tradition start from, the very first year, or is more something that we have been wearing forever, because not even royal has been a colour for every season. We could argue that the only "traditional" colour is gold, as it's been on our guernsey's every year.

It seems anything looks good between the wings. ^_^

You are correct

They could be any colour really, just the fact we are getting wings at home makes me feel good.

Let's face it, it's just as much about #****ingoffthetripanel as it is about #returnthewings

The tri-panel is the worst thing that's happened to this club since Sumich's miss in the 1990 QF

We've returned the wings. However we all disagree on the head. Who's to say it has to be an Eagle. I'm for a priddis or jubilent masto. Can someone whip that up?

I would have thought an optimistic sharrod would have worked quite well

To myself and a lot of my mates it is royal blue and gold all the way. Navy was brought in purely for merchandising.
I know it has been here for a long time but it came for the wrong reasons. Navy is so Victorian to me. Royal blue and gold just oozes W.A.
We are having Navy at home by the looks of it for now, so i would like it if we softened the Navy to something like the darker shirt above.
Takes the edge off and doesnt look to black.

How about that for a first post! And so good he said it twice.

Hey guys, I have a genuine question. With the navy wings, how is the bankwest logo going to work across the back of the jumper? Will they persist with the stupid thin box like they have now? Because I can't envision that looking any good across the wings. The way I see it. The box as it is now will leave the wing tips poking through in each side, that would look awful in my opinion. So could they perhaps resize the box and make it wider like the sgio one on the away jumper? I know its all theory and idea right now. I just want to be able to envision the wings properly with decent looking sponsors.

 

[TassieEagle]

Mentioned it before, but will again

I understand navy is here to say. But to say it is for merchandise reasons makes me sad. The KC royals supporters look fantastic in the crowd with the royal blue, add some gold and you have a winner. On field and off.

Why the **** do people stick with the 'navy is a non negotiable' line? Like have you missed the past 18 months? We got the jumpers changed who's to say we couldn't get the colours changed?

I think it's more about fighting one battle at a time. Return the wings by 2016. Then our campaign can turn to#ReturnTheRoyal

I don't see where we can't push both now though, focus on the wings sure, but there's nothing wrong with mentioning that navy sucks whilst we're at it.

Issue is not everyone thinks Navy sucks

The people who said navy is non-negotiable, at a guess...
