So its not just me then, it came up on my computor that I had already voted which I haven't, if I get tHe chance it will be for shirt A.

Know what your saying Rich, but it is just to old hat, and doesn't reflect why the club changed its colours from bar codes to Yellow and Blue in the first place.

For me - I have always liked white alongside the yellow and blue and thought shirt G looks awesome with the navy shorts.

If not G then it would be B but not A for me.

I've felt of late we've been too yellow, and I always liked navy shorts, which would suit E, F, and would be a must with the classic G, which got my vote.

And apart from D any of the rest would be fine. I just think a lot of them look very Mansfield Town. I also don't understand the recent trend of random swirly blocks of colour like in A and B. It just looks a bit fussy – the best and most iconic football shirts are very simple in design.

For me, the better shirts we have had over the last 20 years have all had proper collars: the various guises of the yellow and white stripes; the blue away shirt of 2006-07; the white away shirt for the play-off win in 2009.

Vote G!

G by a mile. It actually looks like something you would want to wear, rather than a selection of random blue squiggles on some yellow. There's no reason for any of the other designs, its like saying 'this year we've gone for a blue spiral instead of the blue fade, roll up kids.'
Yellow and white stripes and a blue collar like, yer know, an actual shirt.

As much as I appreciate their continued sponsorship of the club... I think the Sparkworld logo is too big and complex! They need a simplified version for such applications.
Having looked at them again, still G for me.

HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE G!!!!
Good times indeed. But history is history and should stay as such. Shirts have moved on since then, i hope G doesn't end as the winner!
Maybe one day, Carayol will find London...

F at a push, but for me it is G by a million miles. Simple and classic.

I would suggest somebody advises Andrew Candy that the vote on the HE site is not functioning correctly. Once you visit the site, if you don't vote and leave, when you return again it thinks you have voted. It's not registering the vote, just a visit. They need to clear that and allow people to actually put a vote up. As for the kits, don't really think the choice is great. I like the stripes, but not the colour, A i don't like the lines flowing through the kit, if it had been plain then maybe. C and D look truly awful, I don't mind E or F, but again way to much going on in the background.

Not for the better, though. Just look at Man Utd's gingham home shirt, or Liverpool's away/3rd kits - they're horrible and over-complicate what is actually pretty easy. One blue sleeve, one yellow: why?! I may be a stickler for symmetry, but it looks rubbish! If not G, then F with blue shorts.

For those who wish to vote, I opened up a new window, logged onto this site and visited the HE again, and it allowed me to vote - worth a try
