    I suppose you could by it at the end of the season for £10 and know the Allams have made a loss on it ??

    Surely somebody'll be doing knock-off copies for a tenner somewhere?

    A potential collectors item this one if so few people are planning on buying.

    New owners halfway through the season would see a big boost to sales

    Same reason as me. No matter who the owners are I've stood firm.

    Nasty, stinky, sweaty polyester. Besides, I think the new shirt is ****. Never buy one either. I did like the amber jersey with the two black horizontal chest hoops back in the sixties. I remember buying city stuff from a shop in town but the name eludes me. I think it started with A ... possibly Asbestos or something like that. Anyone remember?

    The Shop was called "Asbestos" and later changed to ARCO, fancy calling a shop Asbestos.
    It had very steep narrow stairs to the upper floor, I know this well because in 1972 or 1973, I fell down them whilst carrying my daughter, I managed to go down on my back whilst holding her on my chest, she was OK, I eventually had an operation on my knee, which was dicky through a motor bike accident, hence the fall. Happy days.

    I got my first cricket bat at Asbestos back in the early 70s, a reward for getting into the school team. A Gray Nicholls. It lasted forever, school, through Uni and into a few seasons of club cricket. No bat I have had since has matched its longevity, or its six-hitting capability.

    I think buying boots from Asbestos was a rite of passage - spent 3 weeks paper round & pocket money on my first ever 'good pair' of Adidas Inter boots.
