Documentary on Admiral , the company that supposedly invented replica shirts , should be interesting especially if they show this gem :ohmy:

I love that shirt, it could only remind me more of growing up in the 70s if the middle section was orange (or green for a bit of 'Dalek Attack' action). Not that I saw Coventry much is just the lovely design, shorts and colour scheme :)

I'm looking forward to the show, a friend of mine is making a small appearance in it.

The England 82 shirt by Admiral has always been my favourite.

Ahh, when football boots were football boots.

The most curious thing..
The first replica kits I can recall would have been around 1970 /71 when I had a Chelsea kit (oh the shame of it :blush::blush:), when they won the FA Cup and beat Real Madrid to win the Cup winners Cup. My only defence is that they were quite good (and glamourous) then, and my Grand-dad was apparently a fan.

Also everyone at school had to support a first division team. I didn't know Brighton & Hove even had a proper football team until I went to big school there.

My first Albion kit I had when I was a kid was this one.
I didn't own any but I liked all the England Admiral kits.

The ' Got not got' book about football memrobilia has lots of photos of Admiral sportswear.
