ROY OF THE ROVERS BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE
Even if you didn't read the comics, everyone has heard of Roy Of The Rovers. For those who haven't, it's about a young footballer named Roy Race who plays for the fictional Melchester Rovers. The comics follow him through his career, through the ups of winning the Premier League title, to the lows of being relegated to the Championship.
The comics ran from 1954 until 2001, and has been defunct ever since. 16 years later, I want to bring the magic of it all back, and want your help.
Design a crest and/or a kit for any team within the ROTR universe, from Melchester Rovers themselves, to their rival Melborough Town.
If you are unsure about the teams and colours, here are a few links to help you (Includes some European teams too):
