Perth_Rover Posted July 10, 2006 Posted July 10, 2006 didn't they give us 3 kits to vote on this year? Yes, but they were all still designed internally. How about a competition for next years kit? Either be a season ticket or 5 games stubs to enter the competition, then the finialists voted by the fans again?

cletus Posted July 10, 2006 Posted July 10, 2006 How about a competition for next years kit? Why doesn`t BRFCs have it`s own comp & present the club with the best kit/ideas?
tchocky Posted July 10, 2006 Posted July 10, 2006 Probably because 95% of the suggestions would be totally crap. How many graphically competent users do we have? We'd need som sort of template that people could print out, colour in, then scan or mail it in. Just can't see it working. Not to mention the club ultimately ignoring our efforts.
Wolverine Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 Coincidently, 95% of the kits rovers come out with (particularly away kits) are crap!
Presty On Tour Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 the new away kit has is alright, one of the best for a while anyway.
speeeeeeedie Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 Why doesn`t BRFCs have it`s own comp & present the club with the best kit/ideas? My design would have blue and white halves with a sponsor on the front and a club badge.
orwot Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 (edited) I have to disagree with that. Back when we had McEwans Lager sponsoring us, our kits kicked ass - especially the black with red pin stripes... LOL. First blackburn top i ever had, i was but a child of 7 years. brings a tear to my eye.... lets get it straight, we do get nice kits eg. the fantastic kits that kappa produced for the burn. infact, the golden away top would definitely be my favourite away kit. why do so many complain about the lonsdale kits? fair enough, the first kit they did and the last HSA did was a bit stinkin' but i think last years was a vast improvement. i haven't really seen next years much apart from what i saw in the blackburn end against man city but i thought it looked great. plus its cheap as.

roversmum Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 I can't see the problem either. My home and away shirts get worn and washed at least once a week and still look good as new. Fair value in my opinion.
mode_m Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 My only complaint about my new Rovers shirt from last season is that it has Bellamy on the back. But seriously I like it a lot. I also loved my Mcewans Lager one as well as my Kappa one. Everybody thought the Mcewans one said "Oasis" on it where the Ascics sign was because around that time there was a lot of talk that Oasis were going to sponser Man City, and I guess people who had no idea about football thought my Jersey was the team they supported.
laughatthedingles Posted July 12, 2006 Author Posted July 12, 2006 New Strip, now available for pre-order, I will be down there on Saturday at half eight as usual to get the new strip first! Rovers Store link, new shirt looking fine!
SAS Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 I can't see the problem either. My home and away shirts get worn and washed at least once a week and still look good as new. Fair value in my opinion. my home shirt has all peeled i didnt get the away shirt as it was rank
ihtd Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 I am not buying mine until next seasons squad numbers are announced as i want to get Pedersen on the back of it but if he changes from Number 12 to another number, i'm gonna look a right tit with the wrong number on the back. Nice shirt though at a cheap price
Presty On Tour Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 the prices are amazing when you see the prices of other teams shirts! fairplay i know its lonsdale and not addidas or nike but our shirt looks awsome!
BuckyRover Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 my home shirt has all peeled i didnt get the away shirt as it was rank My girlfriend bought me the long sleeved away shirt for my birthday. It's one of my favourite Blackburn shirts ever (even if we did never wear it)
cn_barlow Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 i do like the black with red pin striped away shirt....but my favourite was last seasons away shirt...nice to look at and a really good fit. This seasons offering however is poo!
LDRover Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 My design would have blue and white halves with a sponsor on the front and a club badge. You'll never get that idea being used, far too radical. Remember change is not good.
Flopsy Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 Id like to see a photo of the new kit not an artists impression because they always make the colour look different to what it is in reality. Me, I liked the salmon one we had a couple of years ago - Classy or the high vis yellow one
DanLad Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 my home shirt has all peeled I'm clueless re washing, but I'm reliably informed that you must have used too high a temperature. My mum always used to make my shirts peel, but my fiance has them looking great and it's her advice. (PS Thanks to mums and fiances everywhere for washing etc. Genuinely very much appreciated)
rover_groo Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 we had kappa for a good three years... and i personally thought those were the best kits since asics... I love the Kappa kits as well. But as Flopsy said (cynical or not) i really did like the bright/illuminous yelloy top with our emblem repeated several times down a stip on the right-hand side. It had a bit of style and certainly with a change of colour but similar idea we could get a decent away kit created. The home kit is decent, but i'm certainly not in awe of the away one, but i'll still buy the both!!

Atomicrover Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 that was a good recovery Not 'arf! (PS do they still call them "fiance"s these days?)
doctorryan Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 You think they could show us a real picture of it. Here you go Eddie
stuwilky Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 I shall be going down and getting mine (and Jordan's) first thing Saturday morning!! I'll wager we havnt confirmed squad numbers yet.....
