Nothing in your post responds in any way to mine. Im not having a pop at you at all Stuart ..all in your head ! Im just stating you ll never please everyone regardless of how much time and effort someone puts in to a kit which you mentioned in your post so responds to that part of your post Stuart . And the majority of fans at other Clubs saying the same thing .. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Exiled_Rover 2103 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I'm always amazed why we don't replicate the famous halves in our away kit. It's marketing 101 - see a halved shirt, know it's Blackburn Rovers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

West ham fans in the majority slated all three of their shirts released this season and the list is endless of other club supporters doing the same. And at the end of the day it comes down to the individual whether they like it or not ..everyones taste is different ..never going to please everyone even on a kit decided by fans. You could have three potential fan kits and fans could vote 50% kit One 30% ..kit Two ..20% kit Three and straight away half the fan base has a dislike to the winner...so no real easy way to decide a shirt. As for me yeah looks reasonable ..maybe with blue shorts red socks blue trim ..may look quite dandy on the pitch ..IMO !!!!!! K-Hod ..i now understand what you meant this morning in windswept Bash ....no wonder you switched your PC off and went for a walk !.? Good guess Howie ...wink !

AspRover 199 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Don't particularly like the away kit, but watching the game it looks better on than I was expecting from the photos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CD_93 547 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Ultimately on the pitch it's the colour scheme that matters. I like the red and blue. Just dont look too closely at that dreadful pattern. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oldgregg86 3450 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Neither like nor dislike it. But currently watching the Leicester game and it just doesn’t feel like a rovers shirt. I feel like I’m watching a la Liga match. The blue and white halves are famous and have tradition which is our identity , I’d just like our away shirts to have a similar feel with an artistic liscence. I’ve loved every red and black and yellow away shirt . This just doesn’t feel very rovers to me Quote Link to post Share on other sites

matt83 2242 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Blue and white halves reversed is unmistakably a Blackburn Rovers kit. Big clubs like Man U and Liverpool just generic red so without the crest who is it really. All white spurs, Real Madrid could be anyone. I appreciate we nicked ours off eton and others have nicked it off us. But even if you hid the club crest anyone that knows anything about football would know that’s a Blackburn Rovers kit. Change the colours to red, yellow, whatever then it must be the Rovers away kit. The recent kit style are just generic training tops could probably buy at sports soccer.

I wish we'd have halved away kits every year, just with rotated colours. So few teams in world football have a style of kit as uniquely identifiable as ours - we should make as much of it as possible. Yellow & Black halves would be excellent.

Ben Frost 189 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 On the question of 3rd kits, we've had one 4 of the last 10 seasons (12/13, 14/15, 16/17 and 19/20). The 6 seasons where we haven't, the away kit has either been predominantly red or yellow. So can't see any justification for a 3rd kit this season, especially as the blue away shorts can be used instead of the white ones with the home shirt against teams with mainly red home colours but white shorts.

I know BRFCS is a small sample size but there's always a clamour for the red & black halved jersey, and I bet there's plenty of fans outside here who'd lap it up. Seems the club are missing a trick.

Stuart 16237 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) Another example of a great fan concept kit. Would have absolutely bought this. A guy called Daniel Lilley over on Facebook. Edited September 5, 2020 by Stuart Quote Link to post Share on other sites
