The new shirt is okay but... the why the heck did they change the design?

Piss poor by the club IMO, great idea to get the fans to design a shirt, but then undo all the good by agreeing to change the original design.
Why :102:

I work in this industry and worked on some of the previous shirts (well before JJB took over) and I just do no see the benefit of dropping 2 of the stripes, can not even see it being a cost issue. One reason I can think of is reducing the visabilty of the A&L logo, which is why it has been put on a seperate panel, but that would have worked with all five stripes.

Tossers.

It may be due to legal issues. If the club had used pin-stripes the same as the 80's Admiral kit, could Admiral of sued Leicester/JJB?
 
surely thats the same as saying we can never use a plain blue shirt with a white rond-neck collar again? just incase Le Coq Sportif get the arse

TBH stripes are stripes and the shirt on a whole is different to the Admiral one so do not see any copyright issues.
 
Also sent an email to Peter Jones.

Am I right in thinking that people are actually talking to the club about how many stripes are on the new home shirt? What is the world coming to.....
