The retail panel, which are gasheads, was given the chance to design the kit. Via twitter they asked for ideas for the kit design and the feedback they got, the designs were the 3 they came up with. However, when you look at their twitter account, they have just over 200 followers so the feedback they got was from just a handful of people when compared to the amount of fans we get turning up at the Mem and the amount of people who follow Rovers on twitter. Rovers on twitter didnt ask for feedback on what people want as an away kit. If they did, they may have had a lot more responses and different designs and colours etc. However, only 200 gasheads seen the request for ideas and hardly any of them responded! Therefore, you can see why a fair few people are unhappy with the choices!
So you wouldnt have had the opportunity to give your ideas on what the kit should be, style and colour etc. I use twitter but didnt know about it until our OS said 3 kits to choose from which was designed by the retail panel who got ideas from fans. I found the retail panel and they only have just over 200 people who follow them on twitter so only they would have seen it. I wasnt one of them. So I didnt see it either. I think the OS should have did an article saying to send ideas in to the retail panel, just to promote awareness.
As someone on FB said, "as long as it has the football league emblem on the sleeve, who cares !!!!" Tho the pink design from a few yrs back was very popular.... Maybe pink & white quarters ???? Just a thought...
If we were using the colour pink and the quarters as well, I would prefer black to the white quarters Or pink and yellow quarters like this http://barin.liquidweb.com/~foodswot/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/tumblr_m3qddyjm3A1qk9tpg.jpg
