Who's the Rovers player " modelling " the kit
I liked that kit. The one I hated was circa 1986-7 which made us look like Rotherham. Though I think we thought it made us look like Arsenal.

Yes. That was horrendous. Looked like it had white epaulettes. Pilkington Glass might have been the sponsor.
The yellow away one from that season is for sale on eBay, £75 they want for it which seems like a lot.
To be fair, none of them light a candle compared to Coventry's famous turd brown change strip from a few years ago.

I thought the epaulettes (87-88) were a marginal improvement because we went to predominantly red sleeves. Shame we abandoned the hoops straight after winning promotion with them in 83-4.
