Well, at least the first sentence was reasonably positive.
Frankly, the focus on me personally rather then the point of the campaign is a shame. Particularly from people who do want a return to our traditional colours.
Am I the right person to front up something along these lines? Probably not in fairness. It has however astounded me that no-one, and I mean, no-one else, despite the moaning and disappointment when the shirt design was released hasn't tried to focus this and make the desire for the stripes to remain to be more visible. It was a hope of mine that based on the obvious numbers that did want this that the campaign would snowball from the initial effort I made, this obviously isn't happening.
Regarding the T-Shirt design itself, that was chosen after a vote on a some member submitted designs was held on the Save our stripes facebook page. As was the nominated charity. No-one is forcing people to buy them it was however a logical way of keeping things visible.
Do I feel proud? How I feel is irrelevant. This should be about something the majority of fans want. Obviously people don't care. It was evidently a mistake on my part to try.
