I like it. It's a proper Rovers shirt, white with a red band and I actually like the look off the sponsors logo within the band.

Also similar to the one we wore last time we won promotion

It was 8 actually:

We won away at:

St Helens
Crusaders
London
Wigan
Hull
Salford
Castleford
Warrington ( in Edinburgh, so technically away!)

And we drew at Bradford 1st game of the season.

Long time ago mate!

Just picked up a home shirt, good quality, much better in the flesh than the launch photos. A deeper red than recent years, but very impressed. 45 notes is a bit steep mind.

You could do what I do and buy it for £20 in September

Forty five queens is just standard isn't it?

I'm sure it is, but it's still expensive, particularly considering how tight I am.

You're not tight, just lacking a bit of foresight your lordship.

You're missing a trick here.

You should have bought the shirt 3 or 4 sizes too big if possible for the same money plus 4 cross body bags / storage vests at the same time. That way you can go on any Saddo Airlines (sorry Ryanair) flight wearing the shirt with its deep luscious red chestband and avoid paying their staggeringly high hold baggage charges. Simples. You will also get the added bonus of being able to wash and tumble dry it a few times without shrinking it, unlike the average minging black and white. The only drawback is you might look a bit of a tit at home games.

You've given this considerable thought haven't you? I might have to send my L back for 2XL and give it a go. I might look like big Nige though.

Doubt it. He wears a modified spray-painted Jewsons bag.
