I never had a problem with Greg Broughton. Thought he did well enough.

Venkys. Equal parts thick and lazy.

Hull had their 120th anniversary last year and released this beauty in commemoration. That's Hull City, 120th anniversary. Nothing like Blackburn Rovers' 150th anniversary, a far bigger occasion and more successful club, yet they made the effort. A unique strip, with a special badge to show everyone what it was all about. They also released a whole range of other gear - t-shirts, tracksuit tops etc. in the same range. Made a load of money out of it and had to order more in. I'd hoped that at the very least we'd be able to manage something similar here. Seems not. Effort....something money can't buy. You can either be bothered or you can't.

The kit is nice but they usually are however it isn't radical or much of a tribute to anything it's just bog standard stuff. Typical of the lack of real punch in anything they do down there and just smacks of going through the motions again.

It's so obvious. The same tactics time and time again. Pathetic that anyone would fall for it to be honest.

I quite like the shirt but no reversed halves is a no-no for me, so sorry but I won’t be buying one. It’s dismal that they can’t get anything right.

I was really looking forward to seeing this kit and I'm really underwhelmed. Last season's shirt is miles better. I might be tempted if they somehow pull a rabbit out of the hat for a one-off shirt like they did in 2000, but I ain't buying this one. Port Vale are also celebrating 150 years. A small but proud club, this is their anniversary shirt. Much better than ours.

No Board of Directors No Chief Executive No Business Plan No Commercial income No Vision No effin Idea how to run a Limited Company serving its Community.....end of oh.....no surprise

They are having talks on a Contract extension, as reported by Eliot Jackson. Just hope they dont feature on the 2026 Christmas/New Year Calendar.

No reversed halves…😬

It was the plan (as stated by Fraser) in April 2024 for there to be 4 kits next season…

Wasted my fucking time here didn’t I? 😆

For the record… That will be popular but here’s what I’d have done… 1. Reversed halves obvs 2. ⁠scroll under the badge in gold referencing 150 years 3. ⁠Macron badge in gold or red 4. ⁠contrast cuff single band to match the collar 5. ⁠halved sleeves Other than that…😆

He's a club legend so I'll temper my language by saying I'm very disappointed he's involved with this.

Villa only had a special kit for one game. The only reference to 150 years on the normal home kit was a '150' on the back under the collar.

A retro style kit (with the sponsor's logo on) with the old badge would have been a lovely touch. Instead we get 'Halved kit style 3' from the Macron catalogue.

If they do release a different special edition shirt for the 150th, and I'm not confident this lot have the capabilities to do something like that, it just raises more questions. Why do it as a limited edition? Would it not be more befitting of the monumental occasion for the special kit to be worn all season and make it a full year of a celebration? This is what others have done who have celebrated this occasion recently, Aston Villa, Sheffield Wednesday. Limiting it to being work in one game, or a limited release, to me just dilutes the occasion and shortens the exposure. Knowing what we do about their approach to stocking kits, running out etc. I could see an epic fiasco unfolding if they introduced a new kit later Plus are people going to be willing/able to shell out another £60+ a time for another kit if it is only going to be worn once? If they'd have gone to town on the main kit and made it a true anniversary product and got plenty of stock in they could have made a fortune on it.

So in what is supposedly the 150th year of the club (it isn't, it's the 15th) we are not playing in our traditional colours.

The halves aren't even reversed. It's another shit Macron kit off the rack. Awful. They continue to spit in our face.

I think in a major tournament, the further you get the better you expect the opposition to be. So we were unlucky in the same way that you’d be unlucky to walk down a back alley and not find a tenner on the ground.

I like the kit, just not as a 150th anniversary kit, in that respect, its pretty terrible.

To be fair we've been practicing that for a while - a local vape company and a local solicitor firm are hardly going to pay much.

Probably more likely that they have a special one off retro shirt to be used in one game as they did for the 125th. I don't think it was ever on the cards to have a shirt like that for the entire season.

I like the kit in all honest. Theres bigger issues to be moaning at so I won't be loosing much sleep over it.

As Rovers shirts go it's fine. There is nothing wrong with it...there have been far, far worse home shirts. It's perhaps not a particularly special design for the 150th year is all.
