Ditto, if they don't run out of stock before I can get down to the shop I might splash out now the vaping Sponsorship has been removed.

It takes a real fool to mess it up - and yet we have done for years under Venkys. If the halves on the back are finally reversed then fair play to them - it's really not that hard.

Home: Blue and White halves reversed Away: Red and Black halves reversed Simples. Ferrari still race in red because it’s iconic just like our kit. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have to change up those away colours every year to keep it fresh but basically any time a viewer sees a halved kit they should be thinking "Oh is that Blackburn?" 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, I’ve been saying the same for years. I can’t believe we don’t use our iconic halved kit as our usp branding. Any kit we play in, home / away / third kit/ training etc should always be halved. We’re missing a huge opportunity and every kit could look amazing and be instantly recognised as Rovers. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not rocket science is it - I used to make this point to John Williams and Tom Finn but it was poo poohed because the Marketing men apparently thought the strips would be too similar year on year and we wouldn't sell enough new kits etc. Edited June 22, 2024 by RevidgeBlue 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halved kits should be the sole preserve of Blackburn Rovers. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaddyrovers Posted June 24, 2024 Author Share Posted June 24, 2024 (edited) The local law firm, who specialise in a full range of legal services, have agreed a record deal that exceeds all other front of shirt partnership deals since 2012.

Backroom Tom Posted June 24, 2024 Backroom Share Posted June 24, 2024 A startling (who am I kidding?) lack of imagination but much better than the vapers, red always looks good on the home kit and they were decent enough when I moved house a couple years back 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah that’s a typo - what they mean is bigger THAN 2012 - when we had no sponsor so gave it to the Princes Trust 😛 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt83 Posted June 24, 2024 Share Posted June 24, 2024 Embarrassing that we can’t get proper sponsors. I’d expect Mill Hill fc to get a deal with a local firm of lawyers. A not surprising lack of imagination for a useless club. “OUR BIGGEST DEAL SINCE 2012” I’m also calling bullshit with that claim as well. Unless there has been such gross incompetence in generating sponsorship money for over a decade. Which wouldn’t surprise me thinking about it. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
