Forest Green still wear their original strip formthe 1900's, black and white verticle stripes and black shorts.
Stadium
The New Lawn was due to cost the club £3 million pounds and was verified in October 2003 by local council members, despite much local opposition due to the controversial siting of the development on school playing fields. Work started on the stadium on the 3 May 2005.
The new ground has facilities to house 230 car parking places, 3 coach parking places, a capacity of 5,147 and two seated stands - the main stand and another seated stand. Also available will be conference facilities, a leisure club, gym, sauna, function room, social room and fitness suite.
The stadium will represent the club's biggest ever investment in its 115 year history. The club hopes that having a modernised stadium will attract better players to the club.
For the 2007-08 season Gloucester City shared the ground due to serious flooding at their home ground but have since moved to Cirencester Town.
