J*B Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 They’re the best kits we’ve had in ages. I don’t like the rose detail, looks a little forced, but I shouldn’t complain. 1 Quote

Dreams of 1995 Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 It’s funny seeing the Chileans on social media posts demanding Brereton(-Diaz) constantly. I noticed on the home kit reveal and thought they’d definitely show him on the away kit. Instead we were given Gallagher. Small complaint but come on, give the fans what they want to see. Let’s see Brereton-Diaz in a home and away kit. They might be bloody tempted to buy it!! That’s if Waggot won’t try and screw them over on international shipping 4 Quote

bluebruce Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 Wasn't sold on the home kit but the away one I'm all aboard. Loved the red and black halves last time we did it and always wondered why it isn't our go-to away kit most seasons. The sponsor looks better on it than the bet 24 did too. Quote
rog of the rovers Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 Question for the fellow kit geeks like myself... Will we see blue shorts for the away matches at Blackpool/Stoke/Sheffield Utd etc... Last two trips to Blackpool have seen us wear our away kits. The teal nike kit, as worn by match winner Rudy Gestede and in the League One promotion season, the Black with Red pinstripe effort, as worn by match winner Charlie Mulgrew. That said, our home kit has been sufficient against Luton for the past few of seasons. Though Luton do wear navy shorts as standard. Similarly, we wore the grey away kit in our last game at Bramall Lane, cup defeat a couple of seasons back. Or will there be a 3rd kit option? A single block colour, either light or dark, being the obvious choice. After today's kit reveal, my way too early guess/prediction would be for a yellow shirt with blue pinstripes as next seasons away kit. Quote

RevidgeBlue Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 (edited) Always love an away kit with red and black halves and might purchase one out of principle * at age 57 * but I think the white collar looks terrible, it's nowhere near as nice as the Roque Santa's Cruz version imo. The home kit I'm not overly sold on, again don't like the collar at all. *KHod - wash your mouth out you young whippersnapper* 🙂🤣 Edit: Was relying on long distance pics from the Bradford game for the home shirt, having now looked at it properly I think the collar works a lot better on the home than on the away kit.

Ossydave Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 At a time when the club are struggling to do literally anything right I suppose we should be happy the kits are superb IMO. 1 Quote
justjonny Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 The away kit is beautiful 😍 not a big fan of the home kit, looks a bit weird without the contrasting sleeves. Can anyone confirm if the clubs crest is printed on or embroidered? Quote
Southside Rover Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 Apologies if it's already been said but at least we will be the best dressed team to get relegated. I can't think of any better unless I'm biased... Quote

I think the white collar looks great tbh. It’s my favourite away kit since the Time sponsored black and red striped one of the Souness promotion season. Quote

JHRover Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 Palace recently decided that they were actually founded back in 1861 and not 1905 as they had claimed for the last 100+ years. I don't know the ins and outs of it but it seems someone has managed to find a link to the original Crystal Palace team and that's enough for them to claim status as one of the oldest clubs in the world. Whether it is actually true or not I doubt they care as it seems to be all about proving that they are older/more historical than their London rivals. 1 Quote

The original Crystal Palace were founded in 1861 and were dissolved in 1876. Although both teams were founded by the same company, how they can claim to have existed for 160 years when for 29 of those years they didn't exist is bizarre to say the least. It seems they want to be recognised for something as they have no major trophies to their name. 2 Quote

Bit like when folk try and claim Stanley (third team to come out of Accrington as late as 1968) as being ‘Founder Members’ 1 Quote

The club is the club, not the company that owns it. We aren't Venkys, just ran (ruined) by them. I guess Tesla were founded whenever PayPal was founded too. Your argument is spot on too. AFC Darwen don't officially get to claim to be Darwen FC anymore because of some money problems and a very short spell out of business, so Palace can definitely get to fuck with a 29-year gap!! 2 Quote

I mean it’s a nice shirt but it is a Rovers shirt. They can claim they had it first off they want - I don’t imagine there are any colour photos of it - but that is a Rovers shirt. There’s a video on YouTube and the Palace fans in the comments are all salivating over it. Just cements the fact that Blackburn Rovers have the best and most iconic kit in the country. Just a shame the clowns currently in charge of the club don’t have a clue, and we are back to playing in blue in the first half and playing in white in the second. 3 Quote
