Your favourite ever Rovers shirt?!

[not on facebook]

once saw rovers paly at scunny away in the late 1970's
in yellow shirts with chocolate brown shorts,the kit was that bad there is only two things i recall abouit the game

one....that it was a nite game
two....that orrible kit

The 90-91 away kit's a favourite of mine.

Virulent green and presumably tailored for the Elephant man. Huge chest, massive sleeves and stops half-way down your back.

Despite resultant Merrick impressions it's never fitted me.

65-69 for me. I remember going and it shone so bright under the floodlights. But looking back last years doesn't look half bad.

Yes the African Violet kit was epic

The Yellow Shirt and Chocolate Shorts kit was brilliant and I remember to this day what a dick I felt at Darlo where I had matching Brown Jeans and a brown shirt with Yellow V Necked jumper - this is the days before Replica shirts of course. It was the best I could do and (at the time FELT like a good idea)

Personally and this will be at odds with everyone else my all time favourite shirt is YET ANOTHER away shirt - the Blue and White Hooped number - brilliant. I will wear it till I die !!!

Thanks for your post Red Rover

I like the !946-47 design so much that I've ordered one from Toffs!

I dislike this season's Nike number - the big white area on the back does not appeal to me at all.  It's obviously designed to make player identification easier for the media.  Celtic wear Nike kit but their shirt retains the hoops and so should ours in my opinion.

Rovers wore the 1956-57 kit when I first began suppoting them.

Good luck!

I have that kit, won it on the answer is Ipswich on Talksport back in our conference days. Wasn`t around like some on here in `46!

My personal favourite is `81/82 as like most that is when I started to support the Rovers.

The best ever rovers kit as voted by most on this thread so far

My favourite was the red Asics one from the first year in the conference. All red with white stripes down the sleeves, looked awesome with no sponsor. Still got mine and occasionally wear it to games.

In fact, I may wear it tomorrow at Preston as I've not had chance to go and pick up a new one yet.
