Rovers get two mentions in this link.  Can't see City anywhere there.

To be fair your kit colours are the only thing you didn't steal, so kudos for that.

Exactly, ******* deluded,

I saw a pic of about 300 fans in Spain the other day and I'm being told (by gas surprisingly) that there was 850 there!!!

"Everyone"?

Yep, I'm sure that link covers the views of millions of football fans everywhere.

Wally.

The Gas have got a bit of a quirky kit, that's what really matters isn't it?

You've got the club you deserve.

Shame they didn't still have that Wonga loan, Rod chanting 'there's somebody at the door' as the bailiffs went in would have been far more amusing that Grotbags giving his pink windmill a knock!

It's a fan submitted , not chosen by survey or poll. A lot of those kit's are identical, similar so hardly classics - the Rovers kit for example is pretty much identical in both dates, the fan who submitted it put 

Bristol Rovers 1974

Rovers' visits to Plymouth always left their mark on me as an 11 year old boywhen they ran out wearing this striking but simple blue & white kit.

My girlfriend decided to wear a Bristol City top for a week to see the public reaction.

Today was her first day, and she's already been spat on, swore at, punched in the face, kicked up the arse and received death threats.

God knows how bad it will get when she finally leaves the house.

 

Sorry Boys, it made i laugh

I can't help but think this hashtag they're using is a joke. Maybe it's because they've just ripped off a scene from the first episode of 'I'm Alan Partridge' (1997):

Alan: I love that phrase you used, it was very clever - Revolution not evolution.

Tony Hayers: No, it was the opposite: evolution not revolution.

Alan: Well whatever.

I see they're getting in on the hashtag phenomenon as well now

Can't quite make out the bottom of the shirt but I'm sure one of our resident Sags can confirm if it's on there too?

#EvolutionNotRevolution........

I've used the Ashtotron Digital Doobery and confirm the hash tag says #masturbationandincestation

I think we should therefore be grateful to have our hashtag.

At the end of the 1962/63 season Con Stevens admitted to me that his policy of  #destitutionnotrelocation had failed and we needed to find some cash from somewhere fast.  I mentioned this to Alfie Biggs and he told me his brother Ron may be able to help which is how we found ourselves in early August 1963 at a hastily improvised training camp next to a railway line in Buckinghamshire.

The idea was to disguise ourselves as footballers, hold up the London bound mail train and overwhelm the Post Office staff with our quartered shirts and pirate badges. Then we would use a sublime series of bird noises (or tweets) to trick them into donating the millions of pounds they were carrying to us instead of letting it fall into the hands of those greedy investment bankers in the City. It was a disingenuous plan but one which I felt we were capable of carrying off provided our wing halves tucked in behind our inside forwards and Alfie kept off the George’s bitter.

In typical Rovers fashion things soon started to go awry when Doug Hillard Sports failed to deliver the shirts in time forcing us to wear training smocks borrowed from the Coates Cider factory at Nailsea. Then, when the box of badges was opened, we found the  intense heat that summer had made the Pirates go limp from the wrist downwards. But our final undoing came when the train sailed past our “stop, we are billionaires” banner only to come to a halt at a red signal half a mile down the track where Alfie’s brother and his gang quickly started loading the mail sacks into an old army truck.

I know when I am beaten so rather than confront the cocky band of synthetic Chelsea hustlers who were making away with our money I decided on a hasty retreat back to Bristol. Con Stevens was angry of course, and gave Ian a terrible spanking, but at least he had his plan B to fall back on which was to sell the ground to Ikea. Tragically the lads and I never received a penny of royalties from the film of whole sorry episode which starred my friend the delightful Joan Collins and in which I was portrayed by Dame Margaret Rutherford.

Everytime I see or hear the phrase 'Evolution not Revolution' I automatically think about Alan Partridge running out of a restaurant shouting "IVE GOT CHEESE....THIS IS CHEESE".

Great signing for you and good money for us.

1) Could've had him for free a couple of weeks back if we wanted.

2) I thought you didn't need the money anymore?

3) We've already got someone to wash the kit.
