If they'd have released 10 kit options then the ones they've chosen would easily be the bottom three against any of the following: Black Arabs Black Arabs in Reverse colours Green and Yellow Quarters Green and Black Quarters Yellow and Black Quarters White with Black trim Black Arabs in White with Black Sash And, probably, also Pink. I sense most fans will agree with that view! Whilst this year's away shirt is a nice design it could have been produced for just about any football club.

Option 3. It’s more slimming and god knows I need all the help I can get these days. NB: I agree it’s a poor selection to choose from and feels like the person who put them together is either not connected to our club or hasn’t done their research into our history properly. If you want to sell you need to understand your market.

I'd naturally pick option 1, but grey doesn't tend to work well - as stated already RE Man Utd years ago.
Depends on the shade I guess. If it was more of a dark grey with a light grey cross along it, I'd be much more inclined to vote for it.
Otherwise it has to be option 2 for me although I don't like the shoulders at all. Option 3 is awful

It doesn't matter what the result of the vote is because if it is not the same choice as mine I shall demand another vote until the majority vote for the same choice as me.....this may take several years but I understand that is how things work these days!!! :-)

My order would be 1, 3, 2.
Grey looks the best for me. I like that a lot. I also do like the 3rd option black with the yellow stripe down the middle but prefer the grey option though. Not keen at all on the 2nd option black with a few mini stripes.

This thread perfectly sums up why sometimes, fans are best left in the dark.
"Why don't the club ever involve the fans with kit design"
"I don't like any of the designs we have been involved in"

"Why don't the club ever involve the fans with kit design" "I don't like any of the designs we have been involved in" We've not really been involved though just given 3 designs to choose from with no real reference to our history. if we can do a grey with a slash why not have black with a slash? What's black with a yellow strip/pin strips got to do with Rovers?

I voted for the Grey one, I think it could look pretty smart. Agreed with the others that it's a shame the black and yellow options don't have a Black Arab design, but then I suppose as a vote it would have been a landslide in that case!
Very much appreciate that the club have tried to involve the fans on this though, well done to TG again.

I've never understood why we under use the black Arab kit.... The fans love it, we buy them up like crazy and wear them for years because they just represent our football club so well.... Why don't we use it and stick with it, it wouldn't even be an away kit as such, but a second home kit that we wear away, and there aren't many clubs that have this unique opportunity yet we do and we continually overlook it.... Use it more than once a decade and it’s not going to make much money. Nail on head I'd say. Its all about it he money, money.

Poor offering but 3.
I couldn't cope with another season of never winning away because its so difficult to see our away kit that the military start looking into using it for special ops invisibility cloaking.

Very much appreciate that the club have tried to involve the fans on this though, well done to TG again. It kinda feels half-assed though. A bit more thought to the fans as well as the club and I think they really should of had the diagonal stripe in the Black Arabs colours. It shouldn't be too hard for them to realise it's always a popular offering but it glares a bit that they've chosen the BA stripe on one design, and the colour scheme on the other 2! Also, the number on the back could of been 12 to reflect the 12th man tradition. And maybe say "Rovers" or "Pirate" above instead of "Player". Small things in my book.

Is it possible to add the Black Arab kit just for voting purposes so the club can see the fans preferred choice?
Surely it can't be too late for macron to start preparing the kit so it is ready for mid to late August? (sic)

We have worn dozens of different kits for away strips
Maybe this

For a start I would suggest the following two kit colours, in addition to the black arabs, are ones which are historically Rovers and stir up some fond memories. Attachments:

I just love the green and black quarters, and many friends I used to live with and meet in London in my youth all agreed that combination was stunning.

Are people trolling by voting for a boring grey kit?
