We're fostering a fraternal atmosphere in 2011 (like all new year's resolutions there is every chance it'll be forgotten by February, but still). The OP seems a reasonable question.

I've heard a rumour that the away kit is blue - which'd not be a surprise.

It was posted as a "reasonable question" but clearly?? for some rovers supporters its a very amotive question, "just were is my clubs away shirt"?
if it was hull f.c (my club of choice) id be asking the same question with less than 4 weeks to the start of the seasons fixtures.

Well if those fans were foolish enought to be asking that question they only have to look back 12,24,36 monthst for the answer as this has been Rovers standard procedure for a while.
You can make it something it isn't if you want but you would be talking rubbish if you were suggesting that it is anything than normal for HKR as the shirts will be out for the first away game they always are.

Seeing as we play in red and white and wire play in blue/primrose, its a fair bet that we will play in our home kit as we have done every other time we have played there

I've removed some posts, as it was getting a bit fractious. I believe that Rovers ended up at the back of the Kooga line as Sportingbet didn't confirm they'd be extending their deal until relatively late in the day - NH said something roughly along those lines somewhere iirc.

I can't see that it's an emotive issue.

I know the design of the home kit divided opinion, but I got mine the other day and it is very nice to wear. If I like the look of the away I might even get that as well this year.

No need to get shirty about it.

Really?

I got mine t'other day and it feels like it's made of grease proof paper.

I also made the error of ordering it on line after a few sherbets and now have to wear a shirt with an utterly ridiculous message on the back for the season.

Is the message Agar Out??

I'm quite happy for him to stay, doing a marvellous job.

I think the shorts and the hat are an indication of the colours. I doubt they're the actual shorts though

Amazing that on the HDM website and on here the Hull fans are the ones asking where our away kit is! Obviously Hutchies rumours about us owing Kooga a lot of money and them taking us to court for it is the spark that these Hull fans want to start the fire with!

As has been posted though Rovers have regularly left away shirts until the end of January and I believe this is because they order more home shirts and need to sell a larger number of those than away shirts.

I really couldn't care less what Rovers wear, the training kit looks fine and will probably keep them warmer in the opening rounds of SL!!!

If we owe kooga money then why are they shipping in new merchandise like the hoodies and coats rovers I think know that bring the shirts out end if jan people have been paid again after Christmas and the chance of selling more away shirts might be better. I'm very happy with the home one was like wearing a glove yesterday very light but kept me warm which is what the special material is supposed to do.

They may be paying proforma, anyway i hope the away kit is better than the home kit which i thought looked pretty dreadful yesterday.

Why did it look dreadful for what reasons

That it looks like a poor version of a 1970's Peru shirt?

Seems to really cause a divergence of opinions this years kit, some people have come round to it, others absolutley hate it.

I didn't like the look of it from the off, but I do like to have a shirt to go to games in so bought one.

It arrived on Saturday and I've got to say imho, it's the worst item of clothing I've ever owned (and bearing in mind I used to have to wear jumpers my Grandma had knitted for me at primary school. One was brown with a big tractor on it, so as you can see, the bar's pretty low here) from the horrible tissue paper feel of the material to the fact that the sponsors are all stick on now as opposed to embroidered so will no doubt all fall off after about three washes, as well as the shirt itself going pink.

The sash accross the shirt doesn't match with the trim on the shorts, its almost as if the shorts aren't supposed to go with the shirt. Predominantly white shirt and white shorts with all red socks??!! It just looked a mish mash of design feck ups.

Agree in part. i actually think the shirt looks good when played in... but the shorts just dont match at all. they have some sort of red rectangle on each side... nothing like the curved red strip on the front of the shirt.

Aka back onto away shirt. exactly same shirt as the home one with the two shades of blue in the training kit is what ive heard

By blue do you mean part of the design is blue or the whole kit is blue with other features?

I got the home shirt just before xmas but i've not worn it yet. The quality does feel poor compared too last seasons away shirt. That said its something i will probably be wearing once a week so im not going to worry about it too much.

I don't know - it was just a rumour. Given my record it'll probably be ribena purple and piccalilly yellow.

Biased i know but this to me has got to be one of the poorest looking kr shirts i've ever seen !

Thankfully my club do make a bit more of an effort ! got to say i think both are very good this year. Home shirt is very very good quality...just hope what wears it on the field is just as good quality this year!

I'm still of the thinking that anyone who is a Club Rovers member should be given a vote to choose between a few kit designs. If all choices are terrible then at least the club would have time to go back to the drawing board but ATEOTD if a majority vote wins from the fans at least the club know they should sell plenty.

While we are with Kooga though I have no hope of our kits ever being quality in design or feel.

Well done, you've got a lovely shirt. Chuffed to bits for you.

It'll go smashing with your shell suit bottoms, make sure you tuck them in your socks now won't you.

Dapper!

The away shirt will look something like this...
