The fact the league has enforced this is a bit ridiculous, I don't think fans are in any doubt who is playing who when Quins take to the field, but at least it's still quartered and in the club colours. I'd have released the home shirt with a white collar instead of black and called it the away shirt while simultaneously giving the interfering league bods the finger.
It seems the league is trying to move towards a definite light/dark arrangement for Premiership games. Many teams now don't play in their traditional colours anymore (Glaws, Bristol) and teams are wearing away jerseys in more and more matches unnecessarily (Tigers and Irish at Quins, Irish at Wasps, etc) and now Quins are having to change 150 years of history in case some people don't understand who's playing. :wacko:
I think England, looking like Wales/Arsenal this weekend in a game against France (in France) took the biscuit. And now their saying England will wear it in all next years away games as well? :wall: :wall: :wall:
What's wrong with sticking with tradition?
