holidays are different I mean at home in Bristol, I just feel like a big kid wearing one up the pub or wherever Even in gas heartland you’re bound to come across a bell end that supports our rivals who considers it a licence for them to be a cock towards you. Sadly, local football shirts attract the idiots in my experience. Not so bad around cities not in the south west though! I wear several Rovers shirts In cardiff and I’ve never had any sh**. They are okay with us but they absolutely fecking hate the sh** and rightly so! UTG!

Thinking about plain vs quartered backs… Plain is better look for players and if you are getting name and number printed. Quartered is better for replica without name and number. Just bought son AC Milan kit for his birthday. There’s a black box on the back for name and number which looks great. Would look crap without a name and number. See number 9

It's ok, although the map reminds me of when you use crackle-glaze over paint. Just how close do you need to get to the shirt to see the map? It seems to me just my advertising gimmick if you've got to be stood next to somebody wearing the shirt before you can see the map. I assume this kills dead any chance of the FM being announced soon, unless nobody told our advertising dept that we might not be playing in N Bristol in a few years time!

i will never forget that goal and game The first league derby of my lifetime (I was born less than 2 months prior) the scenes on that open away end, highly envious of anyone who was on it! Never see a derby like that again, completely dominated & a smash n grab raid with a worldie 😄 I was in the dolman stand with my old man...

Most sh*theads in my local don’t even go to their games, one even asks me their results every so often.

I assume this kills dead any chance of the FM being announced soon, unless nobody told our advertising dept that we might not be playing in N Bristol in a few years time! If you’re that bothered about how practical the map might be why don’t you just buy an A-Z instead. As for linking the shirt to a future ground 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Two hideous kits tbf
Edit: this comes across quite harsh but some of our kits, especially home have been quality the past few years.

Or it could be on there so that we have something to remember the times when we used to play in North Bristol.

Wasn't overly keen when I 1st saw this shirt but now I have seen the back and its all blue I love it, I really do prefer all blue backs, might have to get one myself, I don't wear Rovers team shirts as a rule as I am 50 now, does anyone else wear them away from match days, adults I mean? I wear it around the house in the garden etc but rarely away from home unless we pull off a famous victory &/or get promoted, then I might wear it to the shops etc! I've bought 3 of the last 4(?) home shirts so not sure if I need another one stuck in the wardrobe for most of the year.

The white sleeve/blue sleeve detail will look class in a long sleeve version come winter! Surely a nod to the 86/87 home shirt? For that reason I’d have loved to have seen Gary Smart’s NYD derby winner included in the promotion video, I can understand why it wasn’t though. Doesn’t seem to be a decent quality version of that goal anywhere in existence. Anyone out there with the super hi tech comp skills to upscale the quality of the pixelated YouTube vid? i will never forget that goal and game Amazing wasn’t it ….. gotta be in the top 5 all time Gas goals.

I for the last 4 years live in Bridgwater.... Wearing the shirt is a statement of my love and identity.
I even gets toots from car/van horns with shouts of Up the Gas on occasions. Reminds me of home and were my heart lies tbh

Anyone know where the Eastville mural is located at the start of the video? Never seen that before? Clubhouse bar No it's on the high wall between the Eastgate Centre and Ikea carparks. Been there a few years now, but not sure who commissioned it. Worth a look if you're nearby!

Kit changes annually, stadium builds circa 5 years depending on project, absolutely no overlap whatsoever or even close to one.
