| Rovers have always released the away shirt late, but surely the whole range should be released at the same time?

Why...........................?
Rovers feel selling the Home and Away shirts at different times makes sense and I can see where they are coming from. Before Christmas if they release both then do fans buy both or do they choose the one they like the best. I know I can't afford both at that time of year. The away shirt launched after Christmas when the purse strings are lighter would make me more likely to go out and then buy the Away shirt where i may not have done so earlier as the novelty of the shirts coming out has possibly worn off. So instead of buying one I buy two. If this wasn't the case Rovers wouldn't stick with two shirt launches.

| Don't think small ears meant that Easty, might be wrong but I think he was talking about a full range of sizes being released at the same time. Seems a bit shoddy to release different sizes at different times.

Did you get rid of all the voices in your head? Do you now miss them and the things that they said?: |

Especially last season when home/away were released the same day

THat's what I meant. Just seems wierd to me.
As regards the different release dates, I can see the logic. But I personally like all out together, its not like you have to buy both at the same time. You can always save up, or birthday / christmas pressies for people.

My guess is they probably did want to release them both at the same time, possibly have green unveil one and mason the other but due to the issues with mason's visa/passport (i wont get into that "debate" on this thread) they have postponed the release of the away kit for as long as possible in the hope mason would be here.

IIRC both o'meley and fitz had been granted visa's and were pretty much certain at the time to join up with Hull.
I think sending Mason a shirt to model which he might never actually play in would be worse then waiting a few weeks.
My guess could be totally wrong though it has been known.

| the away shirt should have been on the shelves for Xmas to make the most of sales, for some reason it wasnt, well never know the reason i guess, im putting it down to a badly run commercial dept, but thats just me.

| Just seen the shirt, think it is absolutely fantastic. Gonna be a top seller, I reckon that the next two weeks running up to the season money will be flying in for the shirt.
I'd say this was one of the best shirts this season.
