First things first - they haven’t spooned it. So that is good. A bit disorientating at first, and there’s bound to be a bit negative reaction with anything new. It looks better when not surrounded by more red, and I got used to it within a couple of minutes. Robinifying the crowns (ducal coronets) risked falling between stools and trying to be too clever, but they’ve just about carried it off. The one Robin on some of the new clothing lines I like a lot. Simplifying from Kingston Rovers to KR is sensible. I’m tempted to give it a 9/10. But I’ll stay true to my Hull-raised roots and limit myself to a sparing with praise 8. |

I suspect there is a sound financial reason behind the rebranding & if it brings income & publicity to the club so be it. I do suspect there will crusty old gits like me who will still call the team rovers out of habit. I do wonder why anyone would not be proud of a name with 125 years history or feel the three crowns of Hull are not relevant? & don’t forget the feelings of those of us who have been proud to pull on the red & white shirt. |

Thanks for the link, interesting reading. I suspect behind all this change is the need to own our image rights to maximise income & well done if it achieves that. Nothing stands still & in difficult times the club appears to be going in the right direction on & off the field. |

Surprise, surprise, I don't like it, don't see the need for change and completely hate all this digital identity kknackers. Having said that, Lakin knows an awful lot more than me about branding, running a sports club as a commercial venture and how to sell merchandise and sponsorship so I'm prepared to back him. |
