When I was a kid my dad played against Newcastle reserves in a pre-season friendly. They gave the club a set of kits like this. The club used it as an away kit for a couple of seasons. My dad eventually ended up owning the one he wore. He played centre-half / no. 5. Same as you he wore it for painting, creosoting the fence, mowing the lawn etc. Probably worth a fortune in decent nick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the adidas training gear was lush. I have however got just the top (fuck knows what happened to the bottoms) of a Juve, mid-90s Kappa CL warm up suit. Rather than being shell suit it’s jogging bottoms type material. Amazingly it’s still in good nick. Even more amazingly it still fits. I spotted one on classic football shirts .com (I think) a couple of years ago. £400 just for the top Same From about 13 y/o I was in men’s sizes but ended up sending all my old gear to my cousins in Ireland when I got new gear. Gutted. Although I saved them from supporting Man U which might be nice on the next few years 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34338 Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 I chucked one of the Keegan era training tops out, unworn, years ago. Sounds like I could have paid for my leasehold with it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGingerQuiff 2412 Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 I've got my Nolan shirt that I can't prove I bought from the club shop straight after the Halloween Horrorshow. Got to be worth millions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 30337 Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 (edited) Well, yeah. I gave Tom a couple of match worn shirts ages ago. A Pedro one (the denim blue adidas away one - which he still has, or so he claims ). And a David Batty one (the adidas home kit that followed that with the round neck). He (again reckons he) donated the latter to an auction for the Newcastle food bank (Tom I am kidding btw ). Something similar on classicfootballshirts.co.uk would set you back £600.

Howmanheyman 26731 Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 On the topic of score draw.....our shirts are no longer listed on their website, so the likes of 3retro must be selling off stock already produced? I presume the licence has ran out and fatty/Penfold weren't taking calls before fucking off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stitched badges too Went and bought this for a relatives Christmas gift the yesterday and it’s belter tbh. Looks awesome with the red number on the back and no sponsors, very smart. Better quality than anything Puma came up with and the last few Adidas efforts. First time I’ve bought from the club shop in ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
