Personally I don't care for kits, but this is one of the few kits I absolutely adore.

Did the fans mind the flag? I just feel like it's a little odd - putting their commercial branding on it somewhere would be normal. At the extreme, imagine if it was an English consortium and they stuck an English flag on it? Maybe in this case it's okay because most people don't dislike Germany.

At the time, no I think most were cool with it, they'd added the flag in previous seasons too.

However, the start of the season was dreadful, and relations were souring significantly, to the point where the owners decided to put the club up for sale (announced via a fairly self-pitying and fan-vlaming statement).

You're probably right about what's happen if an England flag were added, though it's not really any different. More concerning is the nature of the new owners, hard to know whether to trust them or not.
