Then in 2018-19 they will roll out the new retro, as there is pent up demand for it. This way they'll sell more jerseys, and make more profit.

I feel if they went to the retros this year, and brought out the current style next year as a third, they would be leaving a lot of money on the table. Many have said they want the flags and piping removed. Many will buy if this is the case. The third jerseys are to generate income. Having retros will maximize revenue, in my opinion.

I like the retros better. I'll probably buy a retro next year, but will also likely buy the current version this year. This is dependent on the jersey looking decent (to me), and being free of sponsor advertisements.

Do you still feel they have thought this through?
