Unveiled in late May, Preston North End today announced that they've scrapped the red 19-20 away kit. Instead, a new yellow away kit was shown off today, one that is very similar to the one used last season.
Preston North End 2019-20 Away Kit Revealed
"Since we announced the club's kit colours for the forthcoming season we have had a significant number of our supporters expressing disquiet about the fact that we had indicated a change of our second/third kit option from yellow to red."
The decision was taken by the club in order to not make last season’s yellow away kit option obsolete and "force" supporters to buy a new one. For the first time in three years, the main sponsor (32Red) has remained the same for PNE.
However, many of Preston North End's fans are unhappy about the move to drop the red shirt and have voiced their disappointment on social media.
