Too late by now. Whatever we end up using it will have been designed, prepped, approved and in for manufacture weeks ago. We can only be days from it's release and the marketing people will have shots of it out and on embargo already.

Nah they love all the bloody 'drama' of the big reveal. Didn't they release a series of super close-ups of different bits. No way this year they've just leaked it in full and said, 'what d'ya reckon folks?'.

Out of curiosity (I'm constantly learning), how important is red as a third colour? It's been a part of our kit for years and in our emblem of course, but say red was replaced by another colour, would it be a total disgrace?

Red is the devil's colour. Speak no more about it.
