Minor changes to the white shirt with a red band theme.'"
If you are happy to shell out 45 quid a year for a shirt that only had minor changes then so be it, I doubt everyone is

It was beyond awful (away shirt not too bad,, described as black and white by some commentators, anyway  ). I like the Peru football shirt idea. Looks a bit like a Miss World sash.

Gee, sorry Phil. Didn't mean to offend you by stating my opinion.
If you are happy to shell out 45 quid a year for some random garment with a Rovers badge on it then so be it, I doubt everyone is.

Whats random about it, it's A Rovers home shirt. Red and White, tradition is all well and good but a boring white shirt with a red band wouldn't be a massive seller year on year i'm afraid. The shirt and it's style needs to be different every single season to get the sales the club expects.

| I guess you're right. It probably explains why Real Madrid are in pink and green paisley pattern this season.

Yes, that must be it. Fancy comparing a club that within one month of signing a player had sold 1.2 million shirts with his name on the back in Madrid alone with a club that will be lucky to sell 7000 Shirts.
Rovers customers are the same people year on year, I'd hazard a guess that Real Madrid appeal to slightly more people than Hull Kingston Rovers and if one person doesn't buy a shirt that will be cancelled out by someone else somewhere around the world deciding to buy one.
A white shirt with a red band is nice to have every now and again but 2 of the last 3 have been based on that design

| So the fickle fans of Real Madrid will buy the same old white tat whilst our loyal but modest support won't purchase a recognizably Hull KR kit because, well, it's all a bit samey.
Ok then.

No, Real Madrid have a massive fanbase worldwide, if people decide not to buy a Real Madrid shirt because it looks similar then theres always someone else willing to buy one. Like I said they sold 1.2 million shirts with 9 Ronaldo on the back in madrid alone.
We don't have that luxury and although you are pining for a plain white shirt with a red band it's not something the club can afford to do year on year but i guess as long as you are happy then thats alright

TBF, I think Rovers should go all out for a proper retro shirt. Plain white, broad red band. The efforts based around this so far have been poor - that H thing was rubbish and the Carlotti shirt was the best of a bad bunch. 5 years on, surely it has to be a proper retro shirt? I don't mind the Peru one, but reckon in a season with Mason arriving it would be a fantastic opportunity to go for the best design you can, with the broadest appeal, particularly since last year's shirt was red.
