Oh I've read the article again...the maroon one is the home kit!

*puts tin hat on*

They can't get much right ...
But I like the shirts ... the maroon one is way more interesting than the other, which is boring in comparison.
Maroon?
Marooned in League 1?
Also, as our masters, I thought the Rovers wanted some red and white somewhere.
For the Club Doncaster bollox.

I think that was just a rumour we all started cause we needed something else to be angry about

We?
All?
Edit
The Cleggbook brigade.

I like them both but will be getting the blue n gold one for obvious reasons!

Just had a look on the Cleggbook... yes, they're are some unhappy chappies on there!

Just to clarify, there was no mention at any of the Fans Panel meetings that the blue and gold was going to be abandoned. I would have thought it wise to canvas some opinion before making such a drastic change.

Quote from the Dons' website: "The kits are a fitting testament to a new sense of direction at the club, after confirming that they are going alone in 2020 without the dual-registration system that they have previously called upon. The club have maintained a blue and yellow theme in some part with the 2020 away kit."

I'm a traditionalist and don't feel comfortable moving away from blue and gold. Just in the same way I wouldn't like Donny Rovers to move away from red and white. I wonder what the Rovers fans would have to say if they did? The Cleggbook would explode!

I fail to see the reason this change. We certainly don't need to celebrate our split with Hull by doing this!

I'm pretty surprised Carl sanctioned this. The silver lining is due to the "away kit" it's an easy thing to sort out. Some common sense is needed here. The decision seems very arbitrary.

With the start of the season nearly upon us the kit issue is not the main issue for me . They were getting rid of dual reg & getting out of League 1.
Well we have split with Hull FC . Getting promotion may be more difficult ! It will not depend on what colour shirts we wear. I have always liked the blue & gold but hey ho .

Is it definitely the right way round?
I mean it wouldn't be the first time for someone to type something wrong would it?
In which case all this would be unnecessary.

This article seems to cement the fact that we now play in Maroon as opposed to the Traditional Blue and Gold that we have all grown up.

Real misstep by the club, can you imagine any other team doing it or even the Rovers moving fully over to Blue and Gold......Look what happened when Vincent Tan wanted to change the colors that Cardiff City played in rlhttps://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/6231138/cardiff-city-owner-vincent-tan-red-shirt/rl

We had one awful season away from the Blue and Gold in the ill-fated "Lakers" days, that worked out well didn't it?



Which marketing mastermind came up with this quote?

Yes another faux pas from Club Doncaster, I could get on board with the away strip being the Maroon, as traditionally away shirts are the "experimental" ones, but deffo not a home shirt, we look too much like Batley or Manley or ever Queensland sadly the appearance is where the similarities end.

Reading Cleggbook the usual suspects are defending the indefensible, but a lot of people are not happy, it's handy they waited until after Christmas and people received season tickets tho, I'm pretty sure we could have had a preview of the "designs" many months before they went into production, the cynic in my thinks this was a calculated "release" so people were already committed.

This along with the news that the Eagles will be using Castle Park, and I am sure we have made efforts to maybe you know to play our "home" games in South Yorkshire or better still inside the Doncaster borough. Everyone will love wearing the Maroon home strip at those home games at Post Office Road.

I guess the ONLY positive is that shirts have been produced by a Doncaster firm so we're putting into the local economy.

correct me if I am wrong but one of the best seasons we had at tattersfield we played in a red strip.i will wait with baited breath to be shot down.the sponsor was PDC and he chose the kit.

Steve can you explain why you only do doom & gloom. Why did you not who praise the club when they ended Dual Reg or when they sign players like Boas . Life is too short .

This is a ridiculous decision which benefits nobody. I'm proud to wear the blue and gold. This smacks of one of the most divisive times in our history. The Lakers. I can't believe the current club are so stupid as to follow this through. I'm BEGGING the current regime to change this. Hally. What colours did you play in. PLEASE reverse this!!!
