Don't think P+L made us a laughing stock, people just commented on it. Hashtags are tacky, unnecessary and look naff. It's not about other clubs opinions, it's about our opinions. If they'd polled all the season ticket holders I'd guess less than 1% would have been supportive of hashtags. Yeah I take your point and personally would have preferred the shirts to be Hashtag free. However, to claim less than 1% is a bit misrepresentative as actually a lot of the young people I interact with on social media and in person seem to really like this unique aspect of the design.

brizzlelou Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 I actually really love this shirt! Would look bootiful with hooped socks! So all the #itk's who said it would be 100% pinstripes were wrong? How unusual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen precisely 0 on any Bristol City fan led Facebook pages or on Twitter. I've seen quite a few hiding in amongst all the outrage, and actually a lot of people don't interact with official pages for the fear of being shouted down. Again I'm against the Hashtags but it is naive to think that Bristol Sport didn't put any thought into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigger things in life to worry about. Of course there are, but I don't think that's the point here. People aren't angered by the #hashtags themselves, it's the worrying lack of knowledge and market research at the club for them to think this was a good idea. There's huge opposition for this and most people on the forum or elsewhere could have told the club this would not go down well, it's obviously a poor idea that people would dislike. 6 minutes ago, RedM said: I've just commented to someone that I've seen no favourable comments at all.

How are the designs created and chosen? I know we're in-house now so it's not like we can blame an out of touch American manufacturer or something. That's the concerning thing, someone or a group of people at our club thought this would be popular as it's in the commercial interests of the club to produce a popular design that sells.
