Let's not forget why it's pink, it's for a good cause. _________________ RAITH ROVERS VIDEOS

I think it's pretty cool, not sure I'll be spending 40 notes on it though... _________________ Follow the Trust on facebook and twitter |

That is horrific and one of the all time bad strips. Dire. ACA Sports could have donated £2 to Maggies no matter the colours so thats no excuse.. That is bad. |

I'll probably buy this as opposed to the home one as I prefer the V-neck to the collar. Personally I love the colourway.
Also, the last time I checked I'm pretty sure it was 2011. Some people still can't come to terms with the fact that men can wear what colour they want to. _________________ I can't get fit because I'm always injured,

Lets be honest!! Its a marketing stunt and quite a good one I think!
And as a cancer survivor delighted to see the club getting involved like this, the mention GB opened the Maggies centre may give a clue to who may have pushed this idea _________________ Cameron....Salmond....Daily Mail = euuuurgh |

To those of you being negative - I can see your point, but its all about men facing up to their health problems and raising awareness of Maggie's Centre, which is a fantastic charity.
The problem with that name is it seems to be for women only, although I know the reason for the name.
Anyway, makes a change, although I may donate £10 to the charity rather than forking out £42 for a top, of which £2 goes to charity. _________________ A proud member of the 45. Saor Alba. |

I like the style-if not the colours, if we were gonna make it pink, then we should've gone the whole hog and had it bright flourescant like Evertons a season or so back........this looks like a white top left in with a red jumper wash! _________________ "if I had the chance to do it all again- I'd change everything" |

With £2 being donated to maggies by ACA for every top sold doesn't that make it look like ACA is doing the Charitable thing rather than Rovers ?
I'd have preferred seeing "maggies" on the reverse of the top rather than on the shorts, as most of us big blokes don't buy the shorts, whereas it would be better to advertise it on the shirt. |

the strip design is fine i think the pink is a bit wishy washy would have preffered a bright hot pink almost luminous. i think the aca logo sits a lot better than the home kittys logo.
as an aside i think aca should be commended for donating to a worthy cause. i was under the impression maggies was the main shirt sponsor a bit like unicef for barcelona. |

2 shocking strips this year!
Although I do think instead of that salmon pink colour the kit is we should have went for a bright pink effort similar to evertons of last season. |
