RevidgeBlue Posted Monday at 15:19 Posted Monday at 15:19 The blue and white one above is surely a hoax but it's an absolute joke that there seems to be no sign of an official commemorative shirt from the Club. Should have put some effort into a nice badge for the home shirt to be worn all season and there wouldnt have been this messing. Quote

Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted Monday at 18:01 Moderation Lead Posted Monday at 18:01 £90 for a football shirt 🤣. A fool and his money are easily parted. 3 Quote

The fact that there's no real evidence we ever played in white shirts apart, it wouldn't be so bad if it was a genuinely nice shirt like Herbie's 50's and 60's shirts. If it's the white shirt shown on here it looks like something generic Sports Direct would knock out for a fiver 5 Quote
JHRover Posted Monday at 18:20 Posted Monday at 18:20 Looks pretty dismal but lets be honest it was always going to with this lot. I'm pleasantly surprised they've made the effort to do anything whatsoever. Not sure how strutting around in all white celebrates 150 years of Blackburn Rovers but hey. Quote

Bill Fox once said, at a shareholders annual meeting, that there is evidence to show that Rovers home shirt has never been anything other than blue and white quarters. Sadly the quarters bit no longer applies Edited Monday at 18:39 by GHD 4 Quote

It seems clear anyway from that picture taken at Alexandra Meadows in 1878 that we've been playing in blue and white halves since at least then if not before. So for at least 147 years of our 150 year history we've played in blue and white halves. And what do we get for our anniversary shirt? A plain white one with no relevance to the Club whatsoever. At this point they must be doing it deliberately to antagonise the fan base. 5 Quote

Upside Down Posted Monday at 18:59 Posted Monday at 18:59 Probably best that they change the colours to ones we've never played in. The blue and white is the only thing that even resembles Blackburn Rovers anymore so they might as well get rid of that then there can be no more confusion between Blackburn Rovers and venky FC. 8 Quote
... Posted Monday at 19:23 Posted Monday at 19:23 Well I'm not buying it. As much as I love BRFC I cant bring myself to buy it. If we had different owners I'd throw my money at it and buy it 'just because'. This lot can swivel on a fat one 1 Quote

If it is, will the team be wearing it on Saturday? Quote

roversfan99 Posted Monday at 19:48 Posted Monday at 19:48 Id love to know how many sales are made at £90 a pop. Anyone that gets it has more money than sense. Quote
wilsdenrover Posted Monday at 19:49 Posted Monday at 19:49 Perhaps the club are leaking really shit fakes so the actual one doesn’t then seem as shit as it otherwise would’ve. Quote

Mattyblue Posted Monday at 19:58 Posted Monday at 19:58 Only Venky FC would do a commemorative Blackburn Rovers shirt with no blue and white halves (or quarters, take your pick). Laughable and tragic at the same time, so a fitting microcosm of the last fifteen years. 7 Quote
