Very very sad kit and how much stick did we get

 

[Publius Ovidius]

I still have that kit in my wardrobe

 

[Gary Nelson]

I bet its also a bit easier to get into than 6 months ago Dave

Let's be honest, we almost deserved to lose that game purely because of the kit.

You can just see the shame in Stefan Iovan's face can't you?

"honestly, I play in Ceaucescu's poverty stricken Romania for years, I put up with 10 year old clingy towelling adidas shirts smuggled in past the Communist officials, and I come to England, thinking at last I find fashionable clothes, western style, genuine American Levis. And they make me wear this!"

Hitting the woodwork twice means it was mean't to be!!!

We had the kit for the next two seasons as well! Don't forget it was proceeded by the "pink" away kit. Add the NOBO sponsorship to the mix and we must have held the record for the worst kits in the league. Surpassed only by Hull City's "tiger stripe" kit.
I'd pay top dollar for an intact Adidas kit. Any of them from 80-81 to 85-86. I doubt if any decent examples are left, the ones I have seen around are normally faded to a kind of washed out pale blue.

I bought my eldest daughter the BCal shirt in 1983 - and my youngest duaghter still wears it - and she's at University !!

My Favourite Kit.

In the infamous "Pink Nob" kit .... whoever was responsible for that should have been shot ... whenever we wore it that season away from home the opposing fans pissed themselves (and quite right!!! - the kit was crap!)

 

[On the Left Wing]

In my humble opinion this was the best kit we ever had .... didn't even realise we were supposed to play in stripes until we switched back in the early 1970s ....

My Favourite Kit.

You lot went to Wembley wearing that

 

[The Wookiee]

That was a class kit! Anyone know if you can buy it anywhere?

The problem with the British caledonian kit, was that if you wore it in the sun alot, it faded to a horrible shade of pink/purple!!

Blimey that takes me back. First 2 kits I ever had. B-Cal and Phoenix. Dig that furry writing!
