Blackburn Rovers 2018 Shirts

Blackburn wear blue and white halved shirts, one of the most instantly recognisable in the game. Two early players for the club suggested the design of their school shirts should be used for Rovers' new kit and their traditional green was changed to the light blue of Cambridge University, at the request of some other players at the time. The design has lasted the test of time, still used on the shirt today; the colour of blue has varied over the seasons as has which half is white and which is blue.

Blackburn Rovers were formed in 1875, they were previously known as Blackburn Grammar School Old Boys, they play their home games at Ewood Park, Blackburn, Lancashire.

The player who has scored the most goals whilst wearing a rovers shirt is Simon Garner, who bagged 168 league goals in his career at the Ewood Park club. Other famous players to pull on the kit include; Alan Shearer, Damien Duff, Ronnie Clayton and Andy Cole.
