(a) It's not a UNIFORM.
(b) Change it?  NEVER NEVER NEVER!!!!!!!!!!  
Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

If you changed the jersey to black, then they wouldn't be the all-whites anymore. What would you call them then, the All-Blacks? I believe Hammer Head's display pic sums up my feelings on this one.

Why don't they make that random bit of yellow on the sleeve black and the keeper's jersey black...Yellow seems a bit random on the strip

and while we are at it, why dont we change the way we play the game, maybe make it so you can pick up the ball and run with it. Oh and we can change the name to rugby. Bollocks

I agree about the yellow bits, they are unnecessary. But the idea of playing in black appals me. We've done it before, but it's just not a football colour. Having said that, the over-use of the all-blue kit is a bit perplexing.
Up to and at the beginning of the qualifying campaign for Spain 82, the official colours were white shirts, black shorts, white socks. The first game of that campaign (Mount Smart vs Aussie, 3-3) the team still wore the black shorts but after that they started the All White thing, apparently after Adshead and Fallon had a Real Madrid/Leeds moment.
Nix, Leyton Orient and Alloa Athletic supporting schmuck.

In my lifetime supporting NZ, the home strip has always been White.  A black shirt means we have no differentiation of our Proper Football team from the All Blacks or Rugby League's Kiwis. As Hammerhead so aptly put it - Bollocks to black shirts!!!! I quite like the blue away strip too.

Who cares about differentiation.  We should be black... look at Aussie, South Africa, Scotland, Ireland, England etc all their sports uniforms are the same, so why not ours.  We were only White because FIFA made a rule stating that only Refs wore black but that rule is ancient history.  Black is our colour.

Also think of this: how many people own AW shirts... not many if any (I have three!)... When I went to Wrexham I was about the only kiwi in the crowd with a sh*te shirt, everyone else wore black league and rugby jerseys.  Compared to the Welsh fans we looked pretty average. 

BLACK IS AND SHOULD BE NZF'S COLOUR

p.s look at my avitar from after the game, the only one with a white jersey is me!

White shirts with Black trim is just fine. Black shorts like the old days, and either black or white socks.  Its always been the colours for our sport and we should stick with them.  Just my 10c worth.  I see where you're coming from disco mart but I'm one of those old stick in the mud traditionalists! Good for you wearing the White shirt!

Well, you guys will get a kick out of this....
 
According to a Realiable source at Nike, They (Nike) are not happy with NZ Football and the way they have done things in regards to Internationals etc. So, they only offered a one year extension to there nike contract, so NZF is activly looking for another supplier, and it WILL NOT BE adidas, but, it is looking likely to be......wait for it...... Lotto!
 
I look forward to seeing what they come up with.

Actually, talking about the blue strip, I'm pretty sure it's not the first time we've had a blue strip.

I seem to remember (it was a long time ago so give me a break) that during the '82 campaign we also wore a very pale blue strip.

Yes thats right! Against Saudi Arabia in Saudi we sported a pale Blue shirt, must have been lucky cos we won 5-0 and got that playoff in "neutral" Singapore!
