FAO CARL regarding the kit change?

Wed May 29, 2013 8:12 pm

What's the reason for this colour and design change?
You say in another thread there still has to be some thought going into he design no matter how poorly thought out they are.
Could it be the designer behind it was thinking of pleasing a certain investor/investors?
Or was it designed by a certain investor/investors?
I believe there's a more valid reason to the colour/design change than just because Tan thinks red is lucky...

Here you go Jinks....try not to laugh.

In its statement accompanying the launch, the club said the new kit would make it “stand out” in the Premier League.

It said: “The club decided to maximise on the Puma King design and adopt a two-tone red home kit this season, helping us stand out in the Premier League crowd.

“The two Puma King stripes reflect the fans loyalty to the club, which is appreciated by all.

“We hope you all enjoy the results and look forward to seeing you all wearing your new shirt - with quite a few optional sleeve badges we think - as the season gets underway.”

I personally think that because Tan wants red, they may have tried to make it original (not look like another team) and come up with the two tone, thinking it was an original concept.

That's my two penneth for what it is worth.

I am convinced that there will be changes and until the changes are made no PRE-order will be accepted.
