[Albion] Chewits wrapper, or not?

[Superphil]

History article on the club website,

When Albion were nearly promoted in 'the Chewits wrapper'​

but this isn't the Chewits wrapper kit, is it?

Strange article and use of photos.

As for Dan Tester describing it as truly horrendous, he wouldn't be saying that if he had one for sale given the prices they go for and I maintain that if either the 'pink' or 'chewit' kit was made as a retro it would sell really well.

 

[Vetinari]

No and we were sponsored by TSB when it was the chewits

 

[Deano's Right Foot]

No. No it's not.

Those were the days when a good chuck of our first team was made up of local players, now we are lucky if several are even British.

Chewit is my favourite kit. I'd buy a remake in a heartbeat.

I really liked this kit, still have the shirt and it fits!. It was replaced for the play off final by the chewit kit, which was awful along with the matching shorts, which were adopted the following season.
The striped shorts from the home kit were a novelty and just about worked, the chewit shorts were hideous relegation fodder.

No, I had a 'Chewits' shirts. I wish I had kept it (probably wouldn't fit me now!!!!)

Not strictly true, when we were at Wembley fumbling our chance for promotion, the Chewits kit had NOBO as the sponsor

Apparently, if you look at that shirt, and squint your eyes, you can see an image of a seagull.

Imagine coming from Brighton and going to an away match nowadays with NOBO written across your chest. Imagine even buying such a thing. Just saying

By God - you’re right! I can see seagulls swooping.

That one must be rare as hens’ teeth. I wonder if any survive. I do have a player’s sweatshirt with the Wembley 1991 badge on it.
Shame they didn’t wear the Sports Express shirts they’d used all season.

Plenty of moiré effect in the OP.

I know of at least 2 that found their way into the bin on the evening of the play off final. Mine is in fact the 'blood shirt' from the game, it has no number on the back. Another I know of was worn by Mark Barham, number 7, so who knows how many survive.
