Not quite. The two alternate strips will be one light and one dark according to Pourre

I do hope they bring back the black away kit...I traded mine with an FC Tokyo fan over in Tokyo years ago

I really hope we don't go for grey.

The players merge with the background/crowd rather than standing out clearly - which means the players can't see each other across field or upfield without having a good look for them. When we have played with grey we have slowed down considerably and had a lot more wayward passes.

When we went back to our usual strips the play improved on the spot.

I cannot see that as coincidence.

I would have hoped for some version of a simple white or pale blue (I see Waz said Pourre had said no to white) with either black or orange trim - even a black V (like Victory) bordered by a thin orange strip either side.

Since we are Brisbane Roar FC, something related to Brissy? That Brisbane RIver shape in black over a pale orange?

I would be happy with that.

The black yes, not the stripes on the orange though 

It needs a significant point of difference from a plain orange with black (or vice versa) strip though - would the Hull one without stripes be different enough to serve the purpose of a an alternate strip from our usual range of shirts?

If there is a predominantly black jersey,I hope they only use it at night.It would be crazy to wear black in the summer sun.

The RSF had some older gear for sale at pre-season games,

A long shot, but if you haven't already checked maybe they might have one sitting somewhere getting dusty.

Honestly, I don't care if they ever wear it, but obviously the fans want it. If doing four kits means they can have one that gives fans what they want (and the players don't have to wear it if it's too hot), then I am all for it! 

Agreed

I purchased tics for the cup game as well, and received the order confirmation but no tickets (as yet at least).

Has anyone had any issues or late receipt of ezy tickets?

if any one is interested you can pick up last season's shirt for $20 in the Roar shop at the moment(some limits on size), i bought a couple just so i have some comfortable shirts for working out in :), cheaper than a plain umbro shirt.

@Mello-D, i like your roar pride badge!  would be awesome to see that on the white strip for the season.

Yeah I've did printed tickets they haven't rocked up.

They’re not due to be generated until either this Friday or next for some reason. 

So it's not just me. I guess they'll arrive at some point. Cheers

Thanks! I stole it from @AardigOranje on Twitter. 
I think it came about when there was all the talk about whether clubs should come out in support of LGBTIQ+ etc. 

Thanks mate, will do

I wouldn't mind going for a blue, green, gold (maybe some white trim) kit - BCC colourway

Can't see that happening with the push of "not a Brisbane club, but a club for all of Queensland". 

A random question.
Is ROD eligible to become an Australian Citizen yet?

There’s no push on being QLD 

I also enquired about Roar's 3 game hospitality package for the 3 HAL matches at Dolphin but they're not releasing the details until 28 August.

Hope it doesn't cost more than the resort.

Push probably the wrong word, but it does seem like they are trying to avoid alienating other areas of Queensland (e.g. using the Queensland Maroon), and I think having a kit based on Brisbane City Council colours would go against that. 

We did do that nice Brisbane City blue change kit a couple of years back. I bought that one (the only change kit I’ve ever bought in fact) 

Was that the darker blue and orange kit?  I quite liked that one and missed out on it unfortunately. 

I thought that was more a nod back to Brisbane Lions/Hollandia, being royal blue and orange (rather than the Brisbane City sky blue). I agree it was a nice strip though, best away strip Roar have had IMO.

Yeah it was the Dutch link, like New York (Amsterdan), Knicks, Mets and Islanders wear.

Roots kit.

Kingsman said it was the city colour. 

Iirc he said it was heritage linked.

Anyway why wasn’t it a orange, blue and yellow kit then?
