Umbro was always a football brand made, quite surprised to really hear it hit the USA, but that’s maybe for the 3 year period Nike bought them (to snaffle the England kit deal that is worth billions in sales). I do love Nike as well, but again, not great for kits. Was delighted when they got the NBA deal other than the fact it made my collection all out of date instantly haha.
Yeah, Nike, adidas, Puma, when they can be arsed do do a good job. That new City away is a belter. I used to get the M&M catalogue years ago! Didn't realise they were still going. I'll definitely have a look. I try to limit myself to teams I've seen play (that was aided massively by the random European beer and football weekends I started doing with a couple of mates a few years ago) but that slips to just teams from places I've been quite often and then just to tops I like from time to time. Its probably on the verge of an addiction.
Nowt wrong with having a hobby mate, I never buy them personally, but was mad for £4! There’s heaps of them on there totally random as well, mainly Euro teams but a few South American as well. They get some ****e on there but sometimes some mad stuff, it’s just catching the stock as it’s very limited.
Sounds worth it. The other thing I do is trawl charity shops (I travel around a bit for work so don't have to go in my local ones!!) to see what they've got. I've got a 1981-83 Chelsea top (original, not recent reproduction) that's worth about £200 now. Bought it for a fiver. I saw a fella on Twitter found a Meyba brand 1980s Barcelona top in a charity shop- they're worth about £300. I don't sell the things on, I just like knowing they're rare. Bloody hell, it's all coming out now
Hahaha, nowt wrong with it mate, it’s good to have passions, we are all different. I collect failed relationships, yours is better than mine
Ha! I've got some experience in that too! Perhaps it was all the football shirts. (It ****ing wasn't all the football shirts)
The away shirt would have looked better with the sponsor logo straight onto the blue Ah well I'll stick with this one instead Which one have you got? BBVA home / away?
Looks like it's been knocked up in some Bangladeshi sweat shop to sell in Poundland. Bloody awful shirt
