If making the 8 isn't our goal, wouldn't rd 24 be premature then?

I'd prefer we hold out until round 28, no use going too early on this..

True, but if we are top 4, we are 1/2 way there.

I think it's a pretty big deal if these new colours are adopted as official club colours. 102 years of navy blue and white.

Navy blue shorts make this jumper bearable...

They have to wear a lighter jumper 3 times a year to avoid a clash. Teams all over the world do it. Even a team called the Red Devils wears black and they are one of the most popular teams in the world.

Everyone knows we are Old Dark navy Blues no matter what we wear.

PS Wearing navy blue shorts might defeat the purpose of a clash jumper strip unless we can get the home team to wear white away shorts.

Yep, if the club decides to adopt the light blue for the majority of the season, then we might have cause for a conniption.

People can be dress it up anyway they like.

The FACT is we now have a 3rd colour incorporated in our official club colours.

After 102 years of navy blue and white, this is a pretty big deal and very significant.

Then technically we've had a '3rd colour' since this day

Donstuie as you well know the M&M and Livestrong outfits were special one off designs that were never considered official apparel.

This current outfit is worn and marketed as official apparel.
