We know the history but it's more likely something to do with the suppliers and what they have to hand ! I think the late sponsor deal also dictated a pale blue usage so the sponsor's logo could been seen. I don't go along with colours being chosen months in advance of shirt issue. Quote

On instagram you get bright vivid flashing colours plus the odd pink elephant or ? albatross, or so I've been told, allegedly. Definitely no Man City blue. Quote

SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted November 22, 2018 Posted November 22, 2018 (edited) How about a Tudor Rose where that dark blue spot is in the middle of the blue and White box. https://www.shutterstock.com/search/tudor+rose Edited November 22, 2018 by SIMON GARNERS 194 3 Quote

With Rovers biggest and best fan MB adopting this seasons colour scheme I hope the Club do not take it as a thumbs up for a longer use of insipid blue. COYB. Oh that we had such influence...??? Quote
Cherry Blue Posted November 22, 2018 Posted November 22, 2018 (edited) Looks a bit work in progress. As already suggested needs a logo, flag or club crest to the right of BRFCS.com. Edited November 22, 2018 by Cherry Blue Quote
jim mk2 Posted November 22, 2018 Posted November 22, 2018 Don't encourage the club - Sky blue is Man City, not Rovers. Change it back please Quote

Pale Man City blue was not the original colour of Rovers first kit. It was white. We have used this insipid shade of pale blue just about 10 times in our full history, yes half of those occasions were in the very early years. The Logo looks like the flag of Japan, badly washed on one half. Edited November 22, 2018 by AllRoverAsia Quote
Mattyblue Posted November 22, 2018 Posted November 22, 2018 The new font and general look of the threads looks good. The light blue banner and HAL red eye... not sure! Quote
Gav Posted November 22, 2018 Posted November 22, 2018 The color is awful, the main font looks like it was designed on an Atari in 1979, but a part from that is good to go..... Appreciate the effort but it looks awful, if it's not broke don't fix it a wise man once said... Quote
