Apparently as a gesture of good will the third shirt sponsors have already produced an all orange away shirt at just £5 each ..with some intriguing wording printed on them

I would like to convince my workplace to do the sponsorship draw and.potentially have a local based business with a global name on the shirt

Nice kits but both have the quarters around the wrong way again.. I suppose I could wear it back to front to please Toni Watt? I agree, the badge and top blue quarter on the right (as you look at it) for me, over the heart. I suppose people's preference will mostly stem from the first time you watched, or had a replica kit, and for me that was in the mid 70s, with top blue to the right. If I've got my sums right, the style this year will be the 29th season we've had top blue to the left (as you look at it), with 37 the other way round that I prefer. www.historicalkits.co.uk/Bristol_Rovers/Bristol_Rovers.htm

Indeed. I just couldn't enjoy Lee Mansell's penalty at Wembley and everything that followed knowing that he had the quarters the wrong way round. Scandalous.

Wouldn't care if they played in the nude ('cept socks and boots, of course), as long as they win lots more games than they lose.

Would love to see them do something a bit different with the home shirt for a change, a similar style to the away shirt would be good.

Yes, bring back the Tesco's bag shirt - one of the most unpopular shirts ever.
We play in blue and white quarters, that's it.

I mean, they're OK, but for the love of God when are we going to get the Reverse Black Arab?!

Northampton don't have their kids kits available yet either from Errea.

That would clearly not be a great idea, I am simply suggesting that it would be nice to see something a little more creative/different about a home shirt for a change. The only thing to get excited about each season currently is what style the collar is which doesnt exactly prompt people to rush out and spend £40.

Should go for a classic design, no gimmicks on the collar or anything, just plain simple in a retro sort of style, obviously depends on the sponsor as to how retro it would ultimately look. Would love a season of no sponsor, just the plain quarters. People would buy that!

Tin hat on here, but I wouldn't mind going with a blue shirt and white sash for one season only, it'd look mint.

With you,.i like the sabadell one that was posted the other day, and.the one from the other season.which had a blurring blending effect

Back to the sponsor's logo, perhaps an agreement could be made to put a smaller logo on each arm and none on the chest for fans' shirts. That would even be worth paying a little more for.
But then you probably would not get repeat yearly sells.

There are only so many variations of blue and white quarters that can be designed!
I actually prefer tjhis design to last years, the blue is what I'd call a proper 'Rovers shade of blue' rather than the slightly lighter shade used last year. I also prefer the 'solid' blue rather than the 45 degree shimmer stripe effect we had in 2014/15.
(I found an old 'tesco bag' shirt in a cupboard the other day, sadly it no longer fits me, so it'll probably end up on eBay!).
