Stuart Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Any hopes of it being a hoax now dashed. Preston changed their kit after a fan backlash. No chance Waggott would do that but I wonder what the real consensus is. Sales and seeing people wearing it will ultimately dictate but what is the vote? Quote

Bigdoggsteel Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 But why change it when people like it? Seems to be more who like it than dislike it on social media. Some of the stuff I have read on here like "it is a slap in the face to fans" is comically over the top. 1 Quote
Roverthechimp Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Dislike it right now but will be interesting to see if my opinion changes when i see it in a match 1 Quote
DavidMailsTightPerm Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Grey shirts - ask Fergie - our players won't be able to see each other ? Personally - take away the big 10 in the centre and don't actually mind. Novel approach to keep halved shirts. 2 Quote
Claytons Left Boot Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Superb. Best away kit for years other than the red and black halves. I have mentioned elsewhere that not enough clubs utilise green for some reason. A bit of green to debut the kit at Ibrox. Couldn’t be better. 8 Quote
SBlue Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 I put “don’t care” but I’m on the fence... it’s growing on me Quote
JBiz Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 For anyone who plays FUT - this is guaranteed to be popular next year! I like the shirt. The design on the front and colour is “cool” Id definitely buy a reduced none sponsor version. Quote

Great for Lenihan and Williams to have the bit of green ? 1 Quote

Mattyblue Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 To be fair they could have launched a bin bag with arm holes and it would’ve been 50/50 on that group. 4 Quote

Oldgregg86 Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Absolutely hated it but having seen the players in it I am warming to it although my beer kench and travis’ abs are two different things. Need to see it in the flesh to give a fair verdict 1 Quote
Herbie6590 Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 We did one on Twitter as well...it’s a “Wow”...which it definitely is...? 1 Quote
Mattyblue Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 I thought last season’s yellow was plain and cheap looking, like something a team up Pleasy would wear, yet looking round Ewood against Swansea I could see loads of folk with it on. As long as there is a Rovers badge on it, a sizeable number of fans are simply ‘take my money!’ Quote

Bit of a put down saying a sizeable amount of people will buy owt with a badge on when some people may just actually like the shirt! 2 Quote
Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted July 20, 2019 Moderation Lead Posted July 20, 2019 (edited) Having slept on it, I think this new shirt will be popular with the hype beasts. (Think Nigeria/AIK etc). Edited July 20, 2019 by K-Hod Quote
Mattyblue Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 (edited) Eh? Did I say nobody actually likes it? I was actually talking about kits generally and about last season’s very plain shirt, If you do like this season’s effort, good for you, all money for the club. I’m assuming you don’t as you were hoping it was fake yesterday. However, In MY OPINION (you know that everyone is free to have on here, glad to see someone is known for banging that particular drum after a summer of posters telling people what they can and can’t post), plenty of fans will buy anything with a Rovers badge on it, not sure why that’s controversial, I and I bet you know a fair few of such folk.

Eh ? Did I say you said nobody doesnt like it ..and no you didn't say nobody likes it !? My point was you pidgeon holing sizeable fans into buying last seasons shirt because it has a Rovers badge on it when in reality they may .. just may have actually liked that shirt ..tastes and opinions! And no I don't like this seasons away shirt either ! (but im sure there will be a lot who do ) 1 Quote
Mattyblue Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 (edited) Some people obviously do like it, social media says as much. But some people DO buy anything with a Rovers badge on it, I’ve spent years on a coach to aways with a load of such fans, great fans they are too, but taste doesn’t come into it... I bet you can work out the group in question, by the way. Oh and Swansea was last game of the season, when the shirts had been reduced to £15... so go figure. Edited July 20, 2019 by Mattyblue Quote
