    What is your current favourite home and away kit? They do not have to be from the same season, so you can mix and match :). Here's mine:

    Favourite Home:

    98/99 kit. Has to be this one, it was almost our Phones4U kit the following season, but how can I not still love the kit we won at Wembley in? I would love this sort of style to come back again one day.

    2013/2014 season. This was gorgeous. An absolute beautiful colour that stood out really well against home sides.

    2018/19 home kit is by far the nicest one we have had since the late 90s.

    If it doesn't have Iveco or Solvite on it I'm not interested.

    Bonus point for the pic of Sir Lloyd of Doyley stopping Deeney giving McGugan a probably deserved kicking.

    I think our home shirt from last season is probably my favourite

    I was quite partial the broken telly away kit. Julian Alsford. Ken Charlerey. Simon Shepherd. Jamie Moralee. Mark Watson. A happier time.

    Sorry Skyla, but that’s the home kit from the previous (promotion winning) season - 97/98 - not the Wembley one.

    Is it? Oh thank you for pointing that out. I should of remembered we resembled a sort of mixture of old Arsenal and Watford.

    The home kit we had when we got promoted to Division 1, has always been my favourite home top. Very smart.

    As a random side note, I listened to Ian Bolton on the DNSYEs podcast. He is a great story teller and was very funny and entertaining. He made the comment that, Luther Blissett and Ross Jenkins are the best striking partnership Watford have ever had. I must say, I totally agree.

    Favourite away top? The dark blue top we had in the Covid relegation the season. I don't think we won a game wearing that top. I maybe wrong???

    We beat Norwich away in that kit. One of only two away wins all season.

    Not one win in this dark blue away kit though, which is a shame because white stands out really well.

    Any home kit featuring red shorts. Re-watching the highlights of the 1999 playoff final against Bolton has brought back good memories.

    I quite liked the black kit (was it a third kit?) a couple of seasons ago.

    No, I never liked the Kit@ ones. Think it was the 2020/21 third kit by Kelme. I bought one for my youngest son and it seemed decent quality.

    Home - the stark trek 'engineering section' one with the black shoulders

    Away - the green and red one from years ago.

    I cannot find a picture of that away one. But it sounds awesome.

    It's this one. Some people at the time didn't like it, but I always thought it was great. A touch of the Portugal team about it. I have one of these still. I wonder if it's worth anything...

  32. I've likes a couple of the more recent home kits:

    Screenshot_20230601_212944_com.sec.android.app.sbrowser_edit_26014054811655.jpg

    But I'll always have a special place in my heard for the Solvite shirt as the first one I owned with number 11 on the back as a left winger:

    Screenshot_20230601_213038_com.sec.android.app.sbrowser_edit_26002090439261.jpg

    Away shirt will always be the CTX red and black as my favourite:

    Screenshot_20230601_212714_com.sec.android.app.sbrowser_edit_25899039265839.jpg

    But the blue and silver from the div 2 title winning season will always hold a special place in my heart for the controversial badge colour change which I really liked and the final day at Fulham:

    It was odd why they chose to make the club badge clash with the kit. Surely that must of gone through a quality control? Anyway doesn't matter really as it's a great kit.

    I wore that to watch (well a short sleeved version) Watford play in Kaunas. GT remarked that it was one of his favourite kits.
