Out with the gold and in with the new
First it was a change in ownership. Then it was a change in name….from “Columbus Crew” to “Columbus Crew SC.” Then it was a new name for the stadium…”MAPFRE Stadium.”
And now the colors. The Columbus Crew SC has sported a gold jersey since the team’s inception. To be clear, the club has other jerseys, but gold has always hung in the lockers and is most closely identified with the team. But that is about to change. In the current season, the team’s black jersey is primary with the traditional gold viewed as the secondary soccer kit. Next year, the boys will continue to sport the black, but the gold uniforms will be out. Secondary will be white and reportedly feature colors from the seal of Columbus…red, blue and yellow.
Stay tuned for fan reaction. (jj)
