I feel better, at least we don't look like Yorkshire bus seats from the 90s

I think Leeds United were the first club to sell replica shirts in 1973. One reason Leeds were chosen by Admiral was 5hat then a lot of people didn't have colour TV but that didn't matter because a white shirt is a white shirt whether it is in a colour TV or a b/w TV. The owner of Admiral, who had worked with Revie at Leeds, then got their branding on the England shirt in 1974 after Revie had become England manager which if I remember correctly caused a bit of a furore about selling out and cheapening the shirt.

Any news/rumours about our shirt next year? If the Allams have ****ed off I'll buy it even if it looks awful.

I would imagine there as a brown envelope in it for Revie, guaranteed.

I think I have heard that before but you could certainly buy what passed as Hull City kit long before that. I had one in about 1964 as did a few of my young school mates. No idea where they were bought though. Presumably they weren't true replica shirts and weren't the official kit. I didn't even question it at the time.

Ferriby's kit ideas for their maiden season as a newly reformed club. I quite like the chevron one in the background. But top row second from the left has to win it for me.

Probably the same one I had in 1960. The only two kits you could get were a shirt which with a black v neck was similar to amber with black shorts and a red shirt with a white v neck and white shorts probably because the top 2 teams were Man Utd and Wolves.
