LISTEN HERE The Kidder Street Noise show is back with the real discussions around the latest fans forum & this week we're delighted to be joined by Jakob Ward (@PropaNortherner) who has all the insights from the latest instalment. Join Rob & Jakob as they discuss the timeline around the latest fans forum, some of the things that were actually discussed & the atmosphere in the room with some of the discussions getting a bit tense!

Latest episode of The Sportsman looks at Rovers in-depth in Part 2 with me offering some nonsense…👀

I’d argue that they got the kits so very right last season they were massively popular across all demographics. This season they’ve made a dog’s breakfast of what should have been a home run with the home shirt, the gold one is Marmitey, the green one could have been a classic with the town badge on & all three should have had the gold detail that they are now applying to the shirts having realised the error of their ways. Had they listened to the kit consultation group & launched even half of our suggestions I absolutely believe that the club would have had record sales this season…not just in shirts but in other items too. They are totally tin-eared.

You’re giving them far too much credit. It’s simply that Suhail is concerned that with 2000 unsold shirts on his hands, launching another new one will cannibalise those sales in the run up to Christmas. Someone therefore believes the fanbase can be fleeced more effectively by launching the anniversary shirt later; perhaps even after Christmas (?) at £90 a pop. Anyone wanting a chuckle…imagine if Liverpool released their 1st ever shirt as their anniversary kit. Well worth a Google that 😉

The BRFCS POTM is… MOTM template.mp4

That Baradji lad had better be good after all this…🫣

He may be ordinary but who can Rovers realistically recruit now, that is demonstrably better?

Credit it to him for going along with it…short of putting him in goal couldn’t be more alien

Any truth that the club motto is to be changed to “Due to unforeseen circumstances” from Arte et Labore ? 🤦‍♂️

We do too..!

A bizarre one off…

There may be other solutions for short sleeves…take it into a local seamstress 😉 The challenge is having to hit minimum production runs in two designs.

Me too

About 8-10 weeks…

Duggie came on & just voted for himself 😆

Let's leaven the mood by remembering this...

This was the club badge when I first started going to Ewood in the 60's - it was on decals in the Nuttall St stand for sure & started being used on the programme (replacing the town crest) in 67/68. The Tudor rose badge is the first (non-town crest) badge I recall on the shirt - replaced eventually by "the club badge".

NEVER underestimate the power of "Marketing" Parson 😉

We have M, L & 2XL left...£63 inc P&P - DM me if you want one...

On a separate but related note...if BRFCS sold a "Bob Crompton*" shirt for £60 - could I bank on at least 50 of you buying it ? Because if you will...😉 *more Cambridge Blue...white half on the LHS (over the heart)
