Twelfth A-League license holders, Sydney Rovers have made significant strides this week by selecting their club name, colours and logo.
The team will be decked out in red, white, and black, similar to the old Blacktown City colours (in respect to the Sydney Rover’s Chairman, who had close ties with the club), to be worn in a vertical pattern.
As part of an over-riding philosophy to consult fans at a grassroots level, market research undertaken by the club suggested that fans did not a prefix with ‘West’ or ‘Western’ it. As they note: “You’ve told us you want the club to represent all of Sydney and that you know that the club is going to be based in the West of Sydney.”
The club has asked the FFA to register the name, colours and logo. So the big decisions have been made.
What do you think about their choices?
