Making cash is fine with me but choosing an obscure date instead of the 150th anniversary of the foundation club and the laziness/sloppiness of the design is just poor commercial decision making - and I think that probably ends up ultimately at Rob Oates' door.
I know you can't have blue and amber irregular hoops every shirt, but a club truly in tune with its fanbase and its history would know what works and what doesn't. And wouldn't try and create a heritage event whilst forgetting about a genuine anniversary and simultaneously trying to shift a heritage shirt which has no element of heritage to it. Give half the people on this messageboard ten minutes to sensibly feed back opinion on any of the above and they'd get a better steer of what would work than seems to have been the case here.
