Backroom Tom Posted July 2, 2011 Backroom Posted July 2, 2011 its a cheap design, no real effort behind it. yellow with a black bit on the sleeve, I'm sure it took many hours to think of. this is not a dig at Venkys, but at Umbro, just in case people think otherwise. Obviously it wouldn't be a dig at Venkys as it would have been sorted before the Rao's had heard of the club. I still don't like it, looks like a Sunday league kit still to me

pick32 Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 I like the new shirt would buy it depending on how the new sponsor looks on it. Either way I buy the home shirt regardless even had the bet24 one.
emerton Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 Would we have hooped yellow & black socks? Or would they be black shorts & black socks? Either way there isn't really any excuse for umbro not coming up with an innovative design, especially after the good work they did on the home kit for last season. I've seen 100's of sunday league kits better than this one.
jonv Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 Really? That's our away shirt? I hate to add to the countless of people already filling the board with whiny comments but this shirt is HORRID. It looks like something a Jockey would wear at The Grand National . Any news on the home shirt? Would be really happy if Kingfisher pulled through as the sponsor, think their logo would look rather snazzy
Stuart Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 Not sure yet about the away shirt. Although ironically my pet hate (The Crown black box) would probably look good on it. Hoping to get a home shirt this year, for the same reason (in reverse). But what I don't understand is the process for selection. Does the contract with Umbro mean they have sole design rights? Or do the club marketing team get a selection to choose from and pick the one they hate the least? Surely a decision so important to Rovers fans (and no-one else by the way) should have some kind of input from Rovers fans?
Tim Southampton Rover Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 They used to let fans pick their favourite design out of a choice of shirts.....maybe someone at the fans forum can suggest that if our away kit isnt very popular.
Ricky Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 anyone got any idea at all when we're likely to see the new home shirt?
Hughesy Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 But what I don't understand is the process for selection. Does the contract with Umbro mean they have sole design rights? Or do the club marketing team get a selection to choose from and pick the one they hate the least? Im sure we have been told in the past they decide the new kits more or less a season before (pre venkys) and im sure they used to get several options and then pick which they wanted....Whoever picked that away shirt wants an eye test
magicalmortensleftpeg Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 Is our new away shirt made from the same material as the England/Man City shirts? From that picture it doesn't look like the same material as last years away shirt.
Iceman Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 It's made from reconstituted egg shells.. sounds like a Terminator movie
67splitscreen Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 Deary me! How could someone concentrate wearing these. Everton & England GK shirt
Amo Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 Deary me! How could someone concentrate wearing these. Everton & England GK shirt Maybe they're designed to blind the opposition?
jonv Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Does anyone know what other Premier League teams haven't released there home shirt for the new season yet? Are we one of a few?
Kandevil Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Does anyone know what other Premier League teams haven't released there home shirt for the new season yet? Are we one of a few? Looking at www.football-shirts.co.uk/fans and www.facebook.com/footballshirts looks like we are one of five Premier League teams to not yet officially launch a home shirt. Seems like Liverpool are the only team who are keeping last season's home for this year. Aston Villa - Nike not launched yet, but was leaked Blackburn - Umbro but no news Man City - Umbro launches 12th July QPR - no news Wigan - no news
scunnyrover Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Deary me! How could someone concentrate wearing these. Everton & England GK shirt Haha there real bad, maybe everton are hoping the striker doesn't see the keeper and then the keeper can launch a surprise attack
ChrisyG Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Don't know if this link has already been posted. Sorry if it has! http://www.football-shirts.co.uk/fans/leaked-blackburn-rovers-201112-yellow-away-shirt_12222
Roverdale Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 That yellow kit is definitely one of the worst kits I have ever seen in my life. Could they have put any less effort into a design? Although saying that the England kits are absolutely awful as well.. it's just a friggin polo shirt! And the keeper kit is beyond crap. Scrap Umbro
chaddyrovers Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Somebody has got a pic of the new rovers shirt http://yfrog.com/h31sqccj
Gumbi Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Someone has just photoshopped the New York Cosmos shirt.
Muddboy Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Seriously cool jersey if real Seriously crap you mean! What's that collar all about?
liam Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Seriously cool jersey if real Yep I'd be buying that if it's true
bringdunnback Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Love that top, I rarely buy a shirt if I bought the previous seasons one but that would get bought.
