Blackburn’s 08/09 away shirt has a navy blue base with royal blue trim on the collar and sleeve ends and white and royal blue strips running down the center of the shirt (broken by the CP logo).
You have to see it to believe it, but I think Umbro have done an excellent job with the away kit and come up with a progressive shirt design that perfectly accommodates the Crown Paints logo.

Blackburn unveiled a new color scheme for their away kit in 2007-08. This kit provides a combination of colors from the past. In the 2005-06 campaign the away kit was solid black, in 2006-07 it was solid red, so what is it in the 2007-08 campaign? Red and Black. Using the same kit as the home uniforms, Umbro and Blackburn used the red and black combination making this one of the most contrasting kits in the world. The Blackburn Badge on the left chest is a nice addition on the field of solid black, which makes it stand out even more.
I am a huge fan of this kit, aside from the sponsor logo, but no need to go into that again. The colors on the kit as well as the design has made this one of the leagues more popular sells, and it is easy to see why.

The Blackburn Rovers will use virtually the same kit as they did the 2006-07 campaign, with a few minor additions. This season the White and Blue top by Umbro will feature more red, white and blue around the shoulders and collar, a very nice touch on an already nice top. Add the classic Blackburn Badge on the left chest and your home kit is complete.
The only issue I have with the jersey is the sponsor logo, granted there is nothing that Umbro can do to make it look any better. But it really takes away from the classic Blackburn top that we are so used to seeing. But hey, this is a business, and “Bet 24″ pays them a ton of money to have their logo on the front. So if they keep on writing the check for it, Blackburn will keep on putting it on there.
