Hearts have unveiled their new away kit – to a somewhat sour reception on Twitter.
The club have revealed the new pink and yellow design as a homage to the 5th Earl of Rosebury.

Rosebery was a 19th Century Liberal prime minister as well as a patron of Scottish football.
The colours also featured prominently on the Scotland away kit released in 2014, which received a mixed reaction.
Hearts have decided to go down a similar route but have drawn criticism for their own fans as well as others.
But many online have failed to acknowledge the link to history and think it looks more like sweets than anything else.
certainly a lot better than our Puma away kit up here at Hearts. #FruitSalad pic.twitter.com/YtXGWJFY4S

The new Hearts away kit pays "homage to the 5th Earl of Rosebery" who we can only assume created Fruit Salad sweets. pic.twitter.com/IyqLKf7Kc3
