Mike Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 I'm pretty sure you can book it now - Bombers are going to the royal blue color scheme full time next year. basslicker, bigg jay, Noeller and 6 others 9
Super Duper Negatron Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Based on inside info or a hunch?
Mr Dee Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Another good step in making things right again.
Mike Posted December 5, 2014 Author Report Posted December 5, 2014 Little bit of both. I've heard rumors of them making the switch but all the promo material that keeps coming out seems to be confirming it. They're wearing the royal blue jerseys today too at the presser. Noeller 1
FrostyWinnipeg Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Based on inside info or a hunch? Official logo. I guess thats the stadium. Poor representation IMHO. Could have gone with Provencher bridge or CHRM gfx or combo or both, Royal blue and flat gold? Works for me.
bearpants Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Nice... I like the simplistic look of the logo... just like the Royal Blue uniforms...
Mr. Perfect Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Love the look. Hopefully in due time we can revert back to the road jerseys (or a similar concept) to the ones we had in the 80's/early 90's.

Hopefully in due time we can revert back to the road jerseys (or a similar concept) to the ones we had in the 80's/early 90's. If what I've heard is true, you might get your wish this year. I've heard a lot of rumblings about the fans speaking with their wallets as it pertains to our current road jersey. Nobody likes the gold primary color. The club didn't want a white road uniform, but the fans might be giving them no choice. iso_55, Dascow, johnzo and 2 others 5

That road jersey needs to be burned, and all documents of it's existence destroyed as well. basslicker and IC Khari 2
17to85 Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 the jersey they came up with last time is just an abortion. I won't even buy a blue one cause it's hideous. The **** they got for the signature this year was even worse. Whoever was working with Reebok on that front was clearly an idiot who had no idea what fans want in a jersey. Simple is better. Noeller and basslicker 2
TBURGESS Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 I hope you're right Mike. The fans have been clamoring for the Royal blues for years. HC85, Blueandgold, Noeller and 1 other 4
New_Earth_Mud Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Love the look.

I just hope we never ever wear white pants again... that looks stupid. johnzo and Noeller 2
basslicker Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 They will sell tons more jerseys if they just use the Royals. Sometimes you have to listen to the people who fork over the money. Noeller 1
HC85 Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 If the jersey switch is true a 20-year wrong will be righted. Those royal blues are simply the best. I remember talking to Walby, who was a substitute gym teacher at my high school in those days, right when they went to the navy jerseys and we both lamented what a shame it was.
Jpan85 Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Hopefully they go to the jersey material they used for the signature jerseys too. That was a lot better than the reg jerseys

Noeller Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Love the logo, love that they're (probably...) going to the Royals full time next year. Great news! iso_55 1
Zontar Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Hope you guys are in it next year. I really do. Rich 1
ediger Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 I think I posted this around the Banjo Bowl, but when a friend mentioned to Miller that the fans want the royal blues, Miller responded with something to the effect of "I think you guys will be happy". Mr Dee and IC Khari 2
Captain Blue Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Love the move back to royal blue. Neutral on what happens to our away jersey colour scheme - fine with white or gold (I own one of the retro gold ones they wore a few years earlier). I think the problem with the current uniforms has been the design. The logo looks very retro. Can't say I'm a big fan of it. Could be worse, could be better.
Captain Blue Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 For those of you who want to see the intro video: http://bluebombers.com/video/index/id/107569 Definitely a lot of royal blue involved there, in highlights and backdrop.
iso_55 Posted December 5, 2014 Report Posted December 5, 2014 Hope you guys are in it next year. I really do. As traditionalist I'd love to see a Hamilton-Winnipeg Grey Cup someday. That would be awesome.
johnzo Posted December 6, 2014 Report Posted December 6, 2014 My prayers for tonight: 1) Please God let them go back to royal blue jerseys. 2) Please God don't let them also go to royal blue pants. rebusrankin 1
Zontar Posted December 6, 2014 Report Posted December 6, 2014 Would energize the league. If GC week is just meh with CAL again the haters would have a field day on how the CFL is now failing in the heartland etc.
