The Gull Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 Forget all your whinging, black and red stripes from mid nineties, now that was class, but i think I like this kit as it contains red and black which are the opposites of blue and White.

texasrover Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 technically, orange is the opposite of blue... and i'm quite glad its not an orange and black kit.
Torgeir Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 For one season, the club should draft, say, three different away kits and allow an online/phone vote (bit of extra revenue). I can't see the harm in that. Didn't the official site use to have votes while we had Kappa? I remember voting for an orange one but everyone else voted for one of the two others. Pretty frustrating as I like shirts that stand out a little They've played it safe with this one. It's a pretty clean design, but I was hoping for some pin stripes or halves instead of this uninspired design. Won't be buying it.
old darwen blue Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 awful, looks like Manure and will anyone ever sing come on you reds? Didnt think so. Red/ black halves or stripes anytime for me.
tony gale's mic Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 awful, looks like Manure and will anyone ever sing come on you reds? Didnt think so. Red/ black halves or stripes anytime for me. I don't know, did they sing "come on you whites" this season? Didn't think so.
old darwen blue Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 Red shirts are down there with claret and blue in my opinion. Sorry.
doctorryan Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 I think the black on this kit will be more prevalent than the photo of Dunn & Kalinic indicates. I just hope that the Crown logo will be dyed into the shirt and not applied on. You can't tell for sure either way from the photo.
Presty On Tour Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 Have they made to many old goalkeepers jerseys and decided to recycle them? Hopes were really high on an England style kit with colars. You have to wonder if our marketing team gets their wires crossed with umbro or whoever has the final ok for the design to go ahead must be a complete spastic. Let's pray the home kit is something decent!
Amo Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 Like I said a little while ago, I would have liked a shirt like this (with black shorts):

MeanGreenMachine Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 I can understand why people don't like it, that opinion but im still struggling to see why its a 'manc kit' simply because its red?
alexanders Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 I didnt say its Manc kit, but a Manc and Liverpool kit who are obviously two of my most hated teams in England. They are also called the reds and the red devils. We shouldnt wear red.
Iceman Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 I didnt say its Manc kit, but a Manc and Liverpool kit who are obviously two of my most hated teams in England. They are also called the reds and the red devils. We shouldnt wear red. We got nothing to do, with both United or Liverpool. We wore red before, so its just that we were spoilt with the red and black halves. This is a football club, not a fashion parade. Its unfortunate, that the fans have no say in the matter, but the kit still has the Rovers badge on it.
ada2020 Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 That shirt is a disgrace. A somewhat ott response, it's a shirt that's all. I think it's pretty nice, at the end of the day it is only the away kit. It's not like they have done awaywith the blue and White halves of home. And as for the halves being a good marketing move, what????? How!!!
Presty On Tour Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 erm thats the other seasons.... Correct. The point i was trying to make is how similar the new top is to an old goalies shirt.
67splitscreen Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 Like I said a little while ago, I would have liked a shirt like this (with black shorts): Horizontal stripes is definitely a no no for the ones with a more portly figure. Can we not just switch the halves around on the home kit?.
Ninjathunder Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 I didnt say its Manc kit, but a Manc and Liverpool kit who are obviously two of my most hated teams in England. They are also called the reds and the red devils. We shouldnt wear red. So because you 'obviously' hate two teams (and sorry I don't see why it's obvious at all) we shouldn't wear that colour? It's just a shirt for God's sake. Burnley have blue in their's by the way. Should we stop wearing that? Oh and their away shirt is white. We're screwed.
tony gale's mic Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 Correct. The point i was trying to make is how similar the new top is to an old goalies shirt. That goalie shirt is a very different shade of red and the borders around it are totally different. People say we should never wear red but then ask for a red/black shirt? Not hugely enamoured with this new shirt but its solid and its much better than the last two efforts. Whatever our away shirt's colour is, the main two colours it should never be are blue or white and we've managed to have both those these last two seasons.

They are also called the reds and the red devils. We shouldnt wear red. I've always been outraged at our home shirt, white and blue, Tottenham and Everton colours on our shirt
Gumbi Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 Considering our club badge is a red rose, surely red is a good choice of colour for an away kit.
Jordan Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 Am i the only one who likes this shirt? Its red and black which is what people were wanting. There's just no pleasing some people.
Anti-Dingle-Brigade Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 We've worn red before, Jesus Christ. You'd think it was claret and blue.
