i dont know if this is posted in the right area.was just in a sports shop in the dundrum shopping center at lunch time. they are selling pats and rovers home jersies. what struck me was that the rovers jersey is not actually hooped.the green stops around the sides but dont actually join together. how do rovers fans feel about this. no home and now no hoops????
Celtic did this a couple of years ago and there was outrage among their fans... Maybe Rovers' jerseys are just cast-offs?
Don't think any cares, to be honest. I've never been hung up on things like that. Some people complained that our league winning jersey of '94 wasn't properly hooped because it had a tiny white stripe running diagonally through it. Likewise, the jersey of '96 was "controversial" because the hoops were bigger than normal.
I love the new jersey for one reason: it doesn't look like Celtic's. I know other Rovers fans feel the same. It's hooped at the front, hooped at the back, who cares that they don't join up under the arms.
Does that make it a sham hoop or a hoop sham?
oh really funny, ill be laughing all night...How did you ever come up with such genius?!
I think they are being given the right run around !!
I'll get my coat !!
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

As an overall jursy its a bit more different, but whats with the star? Have ye won the champions league/world cup or something?
As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.
If ya win ten domestic league titles, yu can put a star on your shirt!
I like the new Rovers shirt. Its better off when it isn't Celtics shirt with a Rovers crest and sponser on it.
Its class alright. Best looking one in the league IMO!
Bray's shirt is nice aswell though
Yeah with the adidas and all!Bray's shirt is nice aswell though

oh, its great to be right
First for everything I suppose
Yeah, it's to mark the fact that we've won over ten leagues (15 to be precise, just in case anyone needed reminding). People suggested getting silver stars for our cup wins but that never happened (we've won 24 of them by the way, just in case anyone needed reminding. Incidentally, our nearest rival is Dundalk who have won 9. If we hadn't won a cup since 1945 we'd still hold the record for cup wins. Should I go on...?
