I don’t mind the home shirt, actually. I know it’s not traditional and it won’t be everyone’s favourite.
I was dealing with a rugby club before Christmas at work and was talking to someone who was involved in marketing and merchandise. Like football, they change their home kits annually but they work theirs on a three year cycle. They have one year as a traditional shirt, one year a remake of a retro shirt and one year where their shirt is a bit out of left field.
I wouldn’t be against a similar approach for our home kits.
