This is the new Blackburn kit 14/15, Blackburn Rovers’ new principal shirt for the upcoming 2014/2015 Championship season. Released by Rovers on 14th July, 2014, the new home kit has been made by Nike and features a new sponsor in the form of Horwich-based claims management company Zebra Claims, who will take over from Regulatory Finance Solutions (RFS).
However more than the actual kit itself, it is BRFC’s kit launch video that has come in for a fair bit of flak, with some dubbing it “the worst kit launch video” ever. And after watching Alan Birkbeck’s “birdysdate” video below, we think you’ll agree too.
I like the new Blackburn kit. I like the black trim. I even like the sponser’s logo all in all very nice indeed. Good job Rovers.
Horrible
Rovers have made a laughing stock of themselves. The sponsor supposedly has a net worth of just £95 according to companycheck.
And the dreadful video with a “sexy” old man, don’t get me started on it….
Shame on the marketing department for resorting to such tactics to get media attention.
As long as there am option to purchase a sponsor-less shirt I am happy. I am far from pleased with who they have chosen to sponsor us this year. As for the video, it was for a laugh and I got a chuckle out of it. Birdy is a local legend!
Don’t like it.
The video probably doesn’t mean anything to anyone outside of Blackburn – but the dude’s most likely a legendary fan.
Either way, that shirt is great.
That man….. That music…… WHAT???!?!?!?!
One word describes that video – Cringe!
again…..horrible.
Not sure about the black trim, but I like the lighter shade of blue and general design. The sponsor, jeez!
at least they didn’t put zebra print on the kit!
nice to see the change in the shade of blue. Harks back to the Simon Garner days! jury’s out on the black trim, but overall is really nice. the shorts are pretty slick and simple too
