Hate to say it but that is a really smart shirt. Rovers tend to have better stuff than us, has to be said.

They're big fans of Bo Derrick and Dudley Moore.

The blue and white halves are on the wrong side.

Sadly the outrage doesn’t compare to the other season when they swapped the blue and white halves round :lol:

How can any Burnley fan think that awful piece of faded blue and white bog roll is 'really smart' is ******* beyond me.

They can't be proper footballers, they haven't got enough tatoos.

It's an acknowledgement of the debt they are in. They just need to wait until next month to order the u's that go on the end.

Looks like the blue has been through the rinse cycle a couple of times too many. If it becomes any lighter, they'll become the new version of the "Lilywhites".

I agree, Rovers home shirts are guilty pleasure for me. It’s a shame kits are spoiled by awful sponsor logos.

Why is it ok for the "royal" blue to some years become "sky" blue? It's happened before I think. Are they trying to get a bit of City's aura rubbing off?

I'd love to have a chuckle at the crap sponsor on their new shirt, but the raging monstrosity on the front of our new one prevents me from doing so.

Both of our new shirts have been ruined by the naff, tacky logo of a crummy online gambling company.

It's a shame, but I guess that's just where the money is these days.

Ignoring the fact it's a Blackburn kit, Umbro kits almost always look smart.
Can't be arsed with the same old from Puma anymore, give us a Hummel or Umbro next time and have some decent kits made.

Tend to agree about Umbro shirts. The new Everton. and West Ham ones are quite nice

Actually, of all of the clubs in the north-west, I've always thought that Bury had the sharpest-looking kit.
