Just to let you know that there will be a quite a few updates to the site arriving in the near future. I recently came across a stack of old Shoot! magazines which have provided a rich source of kit research material and mean that as well as now being able to document for the first time some VERY obscure third and fourth kits that were worn during the late 70s/early 80s I will also be adding some classic replica shirt ads that appeared in the magazine during this era. A couple of similar examples are included with the great ‘Modern Life is Rubbish’ article kindly donated by Gary Silke of The Fox fanzine (click here to read).
Plus I will be completing my series of Euro 2008 kits and producing some special features that look in depth at some of my favourite strips of the last 30 years.
Finally, a big thank you to all of you who have sent complimentary messages to me via the site. I will reply to every single one – they are much appreciated!
Great to hear that John, especially the bits about the very obscure kits, looking forward to seeing the updates!
Take a look over at the updates section now Jon…there’s a few rare strips on there already with more to come.
Hi John, Love both books they are fantastic! My only disappointment is the lack of Scottish League teams, especially Celtic. Any hope of a third book? Also, some kit questions for you… Any idea why Manchester United always wore red socks in the 60’s rather than the traditional black ones worn before and since?
Sporting Lisbon? Is there kit based on Celtic’s?
Cheers John, and keep up the good work, Jason
