Good, Bad and Ugly kits from the past – Doncaster Rovers

Doncaster’s third shirt for 2018/19 promoting mental health awareness

Good – third shirt 2018/19
Doncaster Rovers brought out a third shirt in the 2018/19 season to promote mental health awareness. Mental health charity CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably) had their name written across the front of the kit.
The design was created by an 11 year old fan who entered through a school competition and was picked by a panel of five Rovers players.
The shirt was plain white with various triangles of different colours on the shirt.

The first time in this series that both the bad and ugly designs are from the same season!

Bad and Ugly – 2018/19 home and away shirts
Both the home and away shirts are equally as bad and ugly and I cannot separate them!
Rovers have had horizontal red and white stripes on their home shirts for a lot of their history. They were first seen in 1930 and a variety of other designs for the home shirts have been worn since.
The red and white hoops returned on Rovers’ home shirts in 2001 and the wavy design from the 2018/19 season is definitely the worst design of the lot!

The away shirt from the same season, sponsored by Virgin Trains (the same sponsor was on the home shirt) is equally bad.
The shirt was black with red collars and cuffs and across the chest was a fading pattern from blue to red. A thick white ran around the shirt below the fading pattern.
