Kits 19/20

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Has next year's April 1st come early?

Who the fcuk is responsible for this abomination...THE worst away kit I've ever seen connected with our club.

Unreal.

Awful, possibly the worst kit we've ever had!!

Where the hell does the 'green' come from?

That's a Theresa May's Brexit of an away kit. Nobody likes it, nobody voted for it. My 10 month old son could produce a better design on his dribble bib. Abomination!

Alright, that's it!!!

First, we need somebody in East Lancs who knows how to silk screen to carve out 2 10Bet logos. (make sure they're perfect)

Everybody who prefers the red/black halves buy one from Umbro. (You can get their generic blue/white too if for some reason you dislike this year's traditional (home) kit.)

Now we'll need a good supply of embroidered club badges. (Does the club sell them in the store?)

Someone will need to offer at cost to screen the 10Bet logo onto the kits (white onto red/black, RED onto blue/white) & affix the badges. (DO NOT TRY TO PROFIT FROM THIS; THE CLUB &/OR UMBRO WILL SUE.)

Voila: The kits I believe most of us prefer exactly as we want them, complete with the current sponsor's logo in the color it should be.

If enough of us keep doing this they will eventually capitulate; it's simple commercial math.  It will take a concerted effort, but we can do this.

One saving grace. Some attempt to at least make it 'halved'.

This is not a good kit

Someone is taking the piss here...No pictures on the Roverstore site anywhere.

This is a Photoshop wind up surely?

As long as the team play well I don't give a damn about the kit. Buy a blue and white scarf instead

Madon booked in for a colour blind test ..infact an eye test may simply  suffice !!?

Diabolical. And to think it will almost certainly look worse with a big black sponsor stuck on the front. 

I'd say embarrassing but just another slap in the face to supporters really. 

Were you not complaining about the home kit saying you wished they did something different and outside the box? Well you got your wish lol

I cannot believe Rovers have approved it.

Do you think anyone at Rovers actually gives a stuff? I reckon Umbro could turn up with claret and blue zigzags and Rovers would sit back and allow it.

Far easier to just sit back and let events unfold than kick off about it.

Was it Preston who recently ditched their new away shirt because it was unpopular (much nicer than this). Wonder what odds on Rovers doing anything like that?

[HowieFive0]

The daft thing about the shirt is that it proves that Umbro don't have to use standard patterns/templates and that they can be creative and give teams something a little bit different ..the emphasis though is  on a "little bit different"

So an all brown kit sponsored by Scott's 1000 toilet paper would be copacetic with you?

I certainly don’t think they care a jot, not now.

Its just basic things that get done so badly, Christ.

Haha I said grey halves with a pattern in one half about 3 months ago what more can I do!?

The story of the away kit by Umbro (probably)

The base colours taking inspiration from Blackburn's part in the industrial revolution which saw lush green fields replaced with the grey smoke from the hundreds of mill chimneys springing up . The accent grey pattern represents the progression of the industrial revolution, motor vehicles replacing trains   and carts and leaving  tyre marks  on the cobble streets...

…. which is all very well. But, well, quite frankly it's minging so I'm afraid I won't be investing. I'm sorry but I'm out.

Have I missed the kit launch somewhere? Have they accidentally released it in the store??  

[Stuart]

I think it’s the most emphatic response to a kit launch that I can ever recall. Normally there are a fair amount of people who like it. (And not just to be “that person”).

Today would have been a good day to sell Dack and sign Charlie Adam and Jason Lowe!

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

It's fake. ( I hope)

When you type in https://www.roverstore.co.uk/away-kit you get the new kit. 

Unless this is all a horrible prank

On a positive note grown men look ridiculous in replica shirts anyway so it should discourage a few from buying it ??

Oh they’ll be plenty on facebook groups saying they do.
