Lots of Blackburn fans have taken to Twitter to express their delight at their new kit.

Blackburn's Twitter page announced the new kit today (July 3), which will continue to be made by Umbro.

Also similarly to last season, the kit is half and half, apart from this year there is a darker blue than the previous year. Bet10 are still the shirt sponsors.

Blackburn also poked some fun at the fans by using the hashtag #AnnounceTheKit, in response to the fans constantly asking the club to announce the new kit.

The club used the tag line of "Our Pride, Our Shirt" for the announcement, and have now released the shirt online.

However, if you would rather see the kit in the flesh, then there will be an in-store launch at Ewood Park tomorrow.

The response from most Blackburn fans was overwhelmingly positive, with many saying that they would buy the kit straight away.

One fan was delighted with the kit, but less so with Bet10. He said: "Minus the Bet10 on the front (nothing we can do about that) it's spot on and how it should be."

Another said: "Well... Behold a thing of beauty".

Below are some of the responses to the new kit announcement...
