Brand recognition! lol
Go to a Cote d'Ivoire (first example i could think of) soccer game and show somebody a Saints shirt. Do you think they'd instantly yelp "ah! that red vee can mean only one thing! Saints RLFC!". But i bet if you went to an amateur rugby league game over here, people would know Barcelona's shirt straight away.
Our organisation isn't in the same world as Barcelona's, let alone the same league. They sell shirts the world over, just because they are who they are.
Our organisation apparently struggles financially, so shouldn't a shirt that actually differs each year make sense, to make people want to buy a new one each year?
I used to buy the home and away shirt every year at the start of Superleague, as it felt like getting two new shirts every year. But lately, its just like downloading a service pack for Windows most of the time
I've nothing against having a red vee on a white shirt. Its having the same plain white shirt with a single red vee that is my problem. What's wrong with varying it a bit like we used to?
