The history books talk about the Cobbolds with admiration for Arsenal modelling ITFC on the Gunners. I have no idea if that went as far as the kit but certainly in my opinion the home kit should always be a variant of royal blue body and white sleeves. Likewise we should opt for a change strip colour and STICK to it. People will still buy new kit (and I bet just as much of it) but we'd have a proper identity both home and away.
