Too many whine when we do and whine we don’t. If it’s not worth it to you, don’t buy it.
Decent attempt by the gas this. If it didn’t look like the badge was painted over with yellow road paint I’d be getting one!

If it didn’t look like the badge was painted over with yellow road paint I’d be getting one! Why can't we "whine" when a L1 club is selling replica shirts for £70? I've always bought similar ones in the past but I won't be paying over £50 for one. Perhaps I'd feel differently if we were a top 6 side playing attractive football. |

Wow. £70 for a Rovers shirt? What a time to be alive. Comes in a fancy box mind. |

Limited to 1883 so why not chuck a premium price on it and make some extra cash for the club. We can’t moan about where we are and refuse to stick our money where our mouth is.
That being said, I won’t buy one cos I just don’t rate it. Did get a lovely new coat delivered today tho 👌

With last weekend's 20% discount you could have bought a home and away shirt for similar money. |

Don’t forget 1883 only means Macron don’t hit economies of scale on the production and therefore the price reflects increased production costs vs the Home and Away kits

Will look great framed though I might wear it once or twice. |

I'm really torn between getting one or not - I like the concept and it would be a good way for me to spend money at the club that I can't currently spend attending games - plus I really like the Black Arab strip, loved the one I got for the 125th anniversary and wore it a lot...
...but it just looks a bit 'wrong', mostly because the badges are weird (effectively the grey Macron logo is more prominent than the yellow? club badge). So I wouldn't wear it (and at that price I wouldn't wear it anyway) and I wouldn't frame it as I'd wince every time I looked at the yellow badge. So if/when I do get one it will sit in it's nice box, which is also a bit weird....

£70 is a watertake. Disgusting Is it really? If it's something you'll keep as a bit of history, it's pretty good value. I spent over £70 at Wetherspoons last night. |

Happy with my Toffs shirt that I got about 15 years ago. Looks more authentic with laces to do up the collar

Ordered one last night as a Christmas pressie from the Mrs. She always struggles to get me something so I’m happy.
At this time of year spare a thought for our Ted friends they have another 99 years before they can release a kit for an event like this

Forgive me if it’s been mentioned but the last time we wore black Arab strip at home, we snatched a 2-2 with Swindon in 2008.
Lambert scored one of the best Mem goals of them all & Linesy bagged a beauty in 94th minute top bins…
& was sent off for celebrating.

That way you donate to the club without worrying about it. Win win. 👍 |
