2011–12 Burton Albion F.C. season
The 2011–12 season was Burton Albion's third consecutive season in League Two. Club. Managerial change. Following Burton's victory over Northampton Town on 26 December 2011, the club then went 14 consecutive games without a victory. This prompted chairman Ben Robinson to sack Paul Peschisolido on 17 March 2012. Gary Rowett and Kevin Poole were put in temporary charge until a new manager could be found. Rowett was subsequently put in charge of the club on a permanent basis on 11 May 2012 in time for the new season. Kit. Burton's away kit  was retained from the previous season, as was the Mr. Cropper sponsorship brand. TAG Leisure continue to manufacture the club's matchday and training attire. The new home kit was unveiled on 15 July before the pre-season friendly with Derby County. Following 16 years of plain yellow shirts, it marks a return to the traditional black and yellow stripes that had been worn by the club from its foundation through to the mid-1990s. The kit will be used for all club competitions and will remain in use until the end of the 2012–13 league season. 2011–12 Burton Albion F.C.
