150th Anniversary kit/celebrations

[Riverside under the drip]

Honestly, I thought the pink one was top notch. It was clearly the popular choice around town this year. As a XL wearer away from Rovers kits, I needed 3XL which I then took into town to get shortened and the fit was worryingly fine. I may be 'big' but I'm bloody well not 3XL big!

I would have got a home shirt this year if it had been very '150th' themed. I may or may not get an away as it depends on the design. Any special one-off 150th bonus shirt would need to be football style (in material) rather than the cotton rugby jersey for me as I don't like heavy fabric.

"Full kit wanker"

Love it!

That deserves a new entry all of it's own in the Oxford English dictionary this year.

Adj: Elderly male wearing full soccer kit with neither the looks nor the physique to pull it off.

Only just noticed he's wearing a captains armband too 🤣

I'm too old to wear football shirts any more, but even if I wasn't, £60 is silly money for a football shirt.

I stopped regularly buying football kits to wear when I stopped playing in my 40’s. I’d have bought this one to help the club if had been quartered properly. I may get one for my grandson if he likes it more than I do.

I bought that 1960’s one that Herbies was selling on this site to wear when walking out in rural Spain. Now that is a cracking shirt that any Rovers fan could be proud of.
