my son says he doesnt like the new away kit...why are we wearing red when we are a blue and white team..? Thats kids for ya
Its boro, you dont go with colours that are associated with other teams, ie red and blue for palace. Red with a white bar is boro. Yellow and green is Norwich etc. You either go with the club identity (hoops) or go with something totally different.
Agreed but they could at least make some effort to keep with tradition. A lot of clubs were wearing 'pseudo hoops' last season (subtle variations of one color) and we could have had similar with the away red. Definitely looks like Middlesborough circa 1980.
Just shown the pics to my wife, who has a purely aesthetic interest. Her reaction - "Tony doesn't like spending money on good design, does he?" the Air Asia logo got a particular bashing for being "cheap". And yes, she works professionally in design/ communications....
