John Buckley, local, academy product, I'm sure he's a lovely lad.

Putting him on a plinth with the likes of Garner, Shearer, Dalglish. Clayton, Douglas and the rest, is brain-dead from this football club and makes a mockery of the whole thing. How would he make the cut of 'legends' at England's tenth most successful football club?

Could this anniversary season have been any more tinpot?

Still got another 6 months of it yet, maybe Roar & Roarina will be getting a cap towards the end

Don't think even Roar would get one with his past history..........

I’m sure he’s a nice lad but John Buckley getting a cap it’s embarrassing And clearly just because he’s over visiting during his mid season break.

I don't like that at all, very glad we didn't end up putting our similar one out (even though there appeared to be a special run of one shirt that a random rovers fan on twitter managed to buy).

Ours is probably going to be released the day we get relegated in May, probably with Steve Kean and the Rao's faces embossed into the fabric or something.

Still, a white Macron shirt with a Maltese Cross, who knew such things could reach the market.

Is this just a Macron thing then? Put out a white shirt with a Maltese cross as an anniversary edition, even though neither have any particular relevance for the Club concerned.

Perhaps they've got a bulk order of 10m lying about they need shut of.

My favourite thing in that announcement video is that the photo of the old team in black and white that they've used isn't even wearing the same shirt, they're in blue and white halves. Almost as if blue and white halves would've been a better choice for a 150th anniversary shirt 🙂

"Choosing Queen Elizabeth’s Grammar School as the setting reflects a time when the club was shaped not just by matches played, but by the town itself, its institutions and the people within them."

Telling use of the word 'was'...

After the Christmas period, after the 150th game and an exclusive offering only

Who decided the 150th celebrations should be exclusive? Has this happened at any other club?

Sorry to seem like a doom and gloom merchant but the whole 150th celebrations have been crap. It’s as though they have been a distraction rather than a celebration. This club is the pits

£80 for a polo shirt with a Macron logo stamped on it, £200 for it in a 'special box' presumably signed by Balaji Rao personally or something.
