True though isn't it? They are light years ahead of us off the pitch and stuff like this only highlights it. It's a strange one isn't it. As someone else has said, I can only imagine that securing a late sponsorship deal is deemed more lucrative than the estimated amount of shirts we will have sold to date. Don't know if anyone else has an idea of how much income a lower league club typically generates from shirt sales? To not have it available for the open day seems particularly bizarre.

Thought the club said it would be ready for the open day?? Someone on Twitter said it will be revealed tomorrow. Not sure if that's true, but he's been right about stuff before.

So the only other teams in the football league that haven’t revealed their kits yet are Bolton, Bury and Macclesfield. Not exactly great company to be in. Not too bothered about what the design will be but aren’t we missing out on sales by releasing it this late? Presumably it will be ready for the fun day this Sunday. Bury are in deep trouble and after today's EFL statement on Bury, its beginning to look increasingly likely that the 12 point deduction that they've already been given, won't matter because unfortunately they probably won't be in business at the start of the season.

Wow, I had not realised that we were that far behind the rest.. That is pretty damming. I know some will say 'it's only a kit, stop moaning' etc etc .. But for me this sort of thing is symptomatic of BRFC in general to be frank. I for one am getting fed up of my club being so far behind the crowd off the pitch. It is embarrassing. But don’t forget this is the new ultra professional Bristol Rovers. God how bad were we before if we are now just supremely crap?

it's not the shirt that matters. It is the badge, The badge needs to be in the right position so players can kiss it when they win a throw-in. On the back of their shorts perhaps?

If we had our new shirts on sale for a month then we would have some extra funds in the pot to improve the team! You would need to sell about 10,000 to make a big difference

I'd put good money on the EFL still finding a way to let them stay in the league. Although god knows how they are going to sign a squad of players by a week Saturday unless they've already got players lined up in the background ready to sign. Although why would any decent play sign for them anyway.

I get the feeling it’s going to be a retro kit from this video

With that clip at the end, I assume it is going to be some sort of 30th anniversary celebration shirt.

I’d be happier if that changing room could swap places with our current one

Last seasons faded line kit did nothing for me, if this vid is anything to go by then I am a tad excited by this retro implication.....UTG!

Last years was the best in a long time for me. (Probably since the purple and black we never won in!). Never buy the kit so it all means nothing but getting good vibes from the promo
