Would this work as a home kit with yellow as away??


(I know we're not due a new home kit, just suggesting what could work)

Yeah as mentioned, i thinks its the blue in it that i don't like, for me its just not RDFC.

It does make me wonder though, might we see the Yellow come in as a home kit? I'm not sure i would agree with that, but would make the decision a little more bearable.

Interestingly, when would we ever wear this kit? If we clash with another team that wears white, surely this new kit would clash aswell?!

Having said all that, i would probably buy the blinking thing at some stage :lol:

I wouldn't want this as our home kit despite me declaring my love of the shirt! I'm happy for it to be our 3rd kit next year. Not enough connection between the colours and the clubs history to warrant it being a home shirt. Away shirts are all about experimenting!

I wonder how many teams in League 2 wear white as their home colours? ;) If ther's no clash we can wear this for every away game!

Doe's anyone fancy helping me out with all the League 2 and Blue Square teams who wear white at home?

God that is dreadful...Players look like grunge tramps. I'd refuse to wear it ;)

As I said earlier, it really reminds me of this (and this predates the yellow kit):

I think it's okay, although it does seem a bit bright - can't think of a better word than that really ;) . I will buy it but not til after summer when the sponser is sorted. Will be a shame to leave yellow though, my yellow shirt is my favourite one.

However, I really cannot see the point in this kit unless the home one is changing significantly, very similar.

It's not a bad shirt but I echo the concerns that it's not really RDFC.

However different colours = more people buying, it's all about money these days!

No. Just no. Coventry's nickname is also the sky blues IIRC.

It's certainly better than some of the Macron sample shirts that were floating about the club shop - presumably potential samples for styling (including and inter type one, and a green and black striped one).

What about 'Blue is the Colour', then? Or maybe 'Blue Moon'?
