Saintsational shirts or caps?

[Enrico_Misso]

This thread or similar runs every year in the off season.

Always a lot of talk.
Usual consensus is a "Saintsational Cap".
But nothing ever happens.

Must be time for the 2010 discussion?

Not a fan of caps, r people going to wear them inside? How about a badge (like the player badges) then you can put it on anything and its cheap.

Continuing from http://saintsational.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4139 I have made a poll to see what people would rather, after that we can discuss designs and then vote on them.

Caps would obviously be cheaper that shirts, but different designs will range in price...

Thanks for pushing this. Yesterday I went to the Intra Club game by myself and couldn't find anyone. I nearly went up to Michael Roberts to ask him if he could get Saintsational people to put their hands up. I have suggested the cap a couple of times, even if we could just find each other in the Victory Room.
I am happy to just wear a cap with the website masthead on the front.

I brought it up at the post game drinks with the forumites but not a lot of enthusiasm. Can we get club approval?

With respect Bev, how many games will you wear it to. I will wear it to 17 games and I am not a cap wearer either.

How about capes?

Cap. But then again, I like to wear my member's cap to games, so maybe a shirt if its going to be one of the two.

I quite like Bev's suggestion of a button type badge like player badges. Cheap (so we could all get one), easy to produce (i would think?), no stuffing around trying to choose (and then produce) correct sizes, easy to dispatch by mail to any who can't collect in person, can be worn anywhere, any time, any event, any weather and if we make them clear and distinct they would be easy to spot by fellow SSers.

I am also not a fan of caps, but if I do wear one it will be a St Kilda one, and NOT a Saintsational cap, also I wear a Saints guernsey at games, so I would not wear a Saintsational shirt.

cap
but fitted only
the strap clips ones are shite

[Badlands]

I voted shirt, for the simple reason that I'm not a big cap wearer.
Love the idea though and would support either.

No capes!

Bump of the year EM. Kudos.

There are a few off season topics we haven't ticked off yet too

e.g. should be change the song?

[saint66au]

IF we got anything id think a badge is really the best option

Discreet, cheap and doesnt interfere with the Clubs own merch

You can have any number of badges but wear only one cap or shirt..and in the depths of winter who wears just a tee or polo shirt to games?

[Milan Faletic]

I can see why this gets brought up every year and doesn't get resolved.

I actually keep my member's caps for collectors items. I just want the cap so when I go to a game I can spot other forumites. I won't spot anyone with a badge, they're too small.

I also think a visible cap will promote the website and may encourage more people to join.

Oh well, I'll go with whatever but it's looking like it won't happen.

Yes
And Yes
Exactly !

Shirts etc. are no good as the weather is too variable.
I always wear an old cap to games with old badges on it.
But happy to swap for a "Saintsational" cap.

If someone knows how to create them the site could charge $20 or whatever and put any profits towards maintaining the site.

Fair call, but I wouldn't even wear the Premiers Cap, I just don't wear them. With a badge, you can put it on a cap, jacket, tshirt what ever.

I don't think anything that Saintsatinal do would be a problem. with St Kilda. We have our own SEQ polos that we wear to the official functions the club hold up here are they have never said a word.

I just thought a badge might be easier to organise also.

Do a poll, majority rules

Your polos would be good up there, Bev. Do you use the logo on your avatar?

[SaintSimmo]

You really don't like those strap clips huh

Not everyone wears caps (including me) so I vote shirt...

[Pwoit]

Something like this ?

[Milan Faletic]

Why not a windcheater???

You will be able to wear that to the ground!

What about a spanner? Then we can throw it in to the works

[Milan Faletic]

Perfect!!

I prefer the black but wouldn't mind a white one so I can get sigs on it.
