1864roverite Posted July 13, 2021 Posted July 13, 2021 This issue is a poor reflection on Rovers commercial operation 🤬🤬 Quote

Backroom Tom Posted July 13, 2021 Backroom Posted July 13, 2021 I wonder if the kit is still on the roof from Umbro’s genius reveal campaign last season 2 Quote
Wheelton Blue Posted July 13, 2021 Posted July 13, 2021 My daughter is down at Ewood this week. All the Umbro advertising etc is still in situ. No hurry eh lads?... Quote

1864roverite Posted July 14, 2021 Posted July 14, 2021 I saw the new forest blue top today whilst walking in Falmouth it looked an awful design and appeared “cheaply made and tatty”. Quote

I assumed he was referring to the kit and a teaser or reveal was imminent but nothing since …or Warren has a new wine supplier…. Quote
rog of the rovers Posted July 15, 2021 Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) The Millwall Macron kit has been revealed. Interestingly for a release date of 23rd July 2021, so I wouldn't expect the Rovers kit to be released by then (next Friday). I have to say its another attractive effort (IMHO) Sheffield Wednesday are in the same position as Rovers, having just joined the Macron group. They too are playing in pre-season strips for their friendlies...enabled I'm sure by a more traditional striped design, and therefore using a Macron Teamwear design. Expect to see the Rovers/Wednesday strips be revealed and released at the same time. Looking for clues from this, Wednesday do flip-flop between their shorts colours, blue/black. Interesting to see the preseason kit has black shorts....maybe a nod to their official design? As for Rovers, I think the blue shorts are a nod to contrast with the white shirt, rather than using blue shorts with the home kit (last seen in 04/05) although..maybe the choice of sock colour...could mean a return to white rather than blue? Could be way off the mark. Edited July 15, 2021 by rog of the rovers Quote

Rover01 Posted July 15, 2021 Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) Looks like the away kits leaked. May not be legit but interesting to share. I personally like the yellow and blue Edited July 15, 2021 by Rover01 Quote

Gumbi Posted July 15, 2021 Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) There's a few things that make me think it isn't real. The Macron logo on the sleeve is too low down compared to every other Macron made shirt. Plus it only appears to be on one sleeve as opposed to both. The Macron logo on the front seems too small compared to the other shirts they have made. The little box in the bottom right corner isn't a Macron thing. They usually use a line of text saying 'MPerformanceSystem'. Edited July 15, 2021 by Gumbi Quote

Which I highly doubt As much as fans loved that kit I'm sure it was said to have 'cannibalised' sales of the home shirt, ultimately reducing revenue. I'd therefore be (happily) surprised if they went back to it. Quote

Surely if sales of the away shirt are so impressive to decimate the sales of the home, then that’s still a positive for the club, with sales just up in general? Quote

So no need at at Of course we don’t need a third kit to prevent any clashes. However, I expect that having a third kit will be seen as an ideal opportunity to squeeze a few more quid out of our dwindling supporter base. Quote
