    That feedback came from the storm of opposition when HSG arbitrarily changed the colours in 2010 when they were looking to add the knights to the portfolio. I organised the phone/email feedback protest that shut down the HSG office.
    Then more feedback when Martin Lee owned the club and Lawrie was inundated with requests to bring back the gold. I (and JeterPool) were on the fan committee back then as well when it was discussed. Hey presto, gold alternate jerseys started appearing again.
    Then finally in 2021 Mattiske announced the club was "returning to our roots" with gold as our primary colour.
    I'm fairly certain there were also a number of fan surveys over the years that overwhelmingly voted that gold should be brought back as our jersey colour.
    The main issue over the years was our shit kit suppliers who could never find the material in the correct colour.

    Is this enough feedback?
