Milestone Shirts

Milestone shirts have been a thing for over 7 decades at Hull KR, so I think it is about time this information was captured in one location and where better than hullkrshirts.co.uk?

I’m classing a ‘Milestone Shirt’ as one which has been embroidered (or by alternative means) with either match and/or player details, in a unique or custom way. If you know of an occasion that you think I have missed, please make me aware and I will get it added to the ever growing list.
