    Would you wear the hoops?

    Another thread got me thinking. Does anyone think that the club will bring out a hoop strip for our 150th anniversary and would you wear it? Would be funny to get it up celtc.

    Edit*
    Just realised our first kit was white. The hoops came a year later.

    Would you wear the hoops for our 151st anniversary 😂

    If it’s our strip then yes of course.

    We are fully entitled to bring out a hooped jersey and it would be the right occasion to do it.

    Great idea, imagine the reaction!
    Could ask the players to grow a moustache too. 😜

    I always get the sense some fans motivation when discussing a hooped strip is to 'wind up Celtic'. Quite why it would do that is the bit I don't quite understand.

    This. About 1% of people would understand that is was our first kit, rest would laugh at us.

    Because they think they own the hoops and it would bring them down a peg as we were the first to wear the hoops and first to wear the green. They hate that they were not first.

    Only my opinion of course, could be wrong.

    I don’t think they really care tbh. We would be seen wrongly as mini Celtic.

    It would work if the first game of the season was at Ibrox mind you followed by a cheeky wee huddle 😉

    The white one looks nice with the badge. Maybe white tracksuit bottoms with a green stripe.

    Across here, the NRL have a "Retro round", basically a weekend the teams play in design of bygone years.I think it would be great to see the team in green/white "insave" kit or green/purple kit once a year v motherwell "willie pettigrew" era.

    That idea would back fire on us I'm afraid. A wee bit like sleeping with someone, who then married your cousin and remained married for years and years. You may pump her again, but you would know and everyone else know that she is your cousin's wife.

    We have long given up hoops and to be honest I can see why, its a pretty ugly style.

    Not much point in a wind up if the only person who gets it is yourself. Like it or not Celtic have made the hoops their own, and welcome to them because the classic Hibs strip is one of the best in world football.

    However, I wouldn't mind a white top to commemorate 150 years, just so long as its got green shorts with it

    I would have no problem with it per se, and i would quite like us to reclaim some ownership in some ways.

    But i think it should be our first strip, which i think was white, and it should have a big gold harp on the left breast, and no sponsor.

    I think it would be a huge hit.

    Interesting site. Aberdeen took a long time to find themselves. Long period searching for their red identity.
