The Cup Final retro shirts thread

I saw a fine selection for the semi so what are we all wearing?

For me it's a toss-up between the 88-89 white Riding Bitter away with amber and black slashes across the shoulders or the tiger stripes. The white looks cool as **** but it would be good to be in amber. Decisions, decisions...

Really regret selling my home and away 80-82 shirts now

 

I bought shirts consistently from about 86-93 – stupidly gave them all away – bar the two from 93, which are both now in poor condition.

The white away shirt from 88-89 you refer to, always reminds of the much discussed Whitehurst pile-driver away at Bratfud in the cup.

 

Yep, that's the one! And you really were stupid, I got £700 for the 80-82 home and away.

 

I'm toying with going with the green and white check Bonus kit from 1990 but like you say, probably need to be in amber so I reckon either the home kit from the same era or tiger stripes

 

Is this any different to selling a Cup final ticket??

 

So it goes.

Handed-them-down, along with some other clothes, to some younger kid whose family was struggling cash wise, so they went to a deserving cause at least and maybe I created a fan. Maybe.

 

Remember the Green and white small check shirt well and the end to the chant "We all follow a black and amber team - who sometimes play in green" which many newer fans didn't understand.

 

My son has that shirt and it's my favourite. Don't see many of them.

 

Not realy retro but I will be wearing my 2007-08 shirt. Put it away for posterity after Bristol City but have got it out on 2 occassions since - Cardiff and Sheff United - hoping its magic works for a 4th time a week today.

 

I'll probably wear the 07/08 Wembley one. Not retro but one of our best shirts in recent years and we've a 100% record with me wearing it at Wembley.

 

Black away Karoo one for me

 

I'll be wearing retro 2013/14 home shirt, not like I have that many options, it's either that or last seasons away shirt. All my other shirts are in bags at my Sisters!

 

My tiger stripe shirt hasn't fit for a couple of decades so probably the Centennial shirt. Good old Bonus Electrical.

I still think we should dust this full kit off for the final:

I have the Matchwinner Green & white chequered 'West Germany away style' shirt in a medium and the Patrick 'Sportscard' away shirt in large to wear. The green and white shirt is a little snug

 

I shall be wearing one of my lucky Ben Sherman's .

 

Mine is the plain amber shirt with Sportscard as the sponsor, think it was the season after Adam Pearson took over and we had Nicky Mohan, Lawrie Dudfield etc. Love that shirt.

 

I'll be wearing the pelada black, amber and white vertical striped shirt with needler's sweets sponsor from around 1994/95 season (jimmy grahams bald head avatar).I wore this shirt for the play off final in 2008 and the fa cup semi final v sheff utd, so here's hoping for a hat trick of Wembley wins.

 

Think i have my black away shirt from about ten years ago, don't have a clue what season it was though, worn it twice at Wembley won both times. I just can't not wear it again now.

 

Jungle shirt for me. Always a bit of a tradition for last away game of the season. Getting a little tight now though.
I'm sure I can handle the gooners' "what the fukcin hell is that" jibes!

 

I'm not wearing a shirt. Instead I'm having my body sprayed in amber (but it looks orange) fake tan and I'm having vertical stripes in black felt tip pen drawn on. If anyone knows a good face painter could they pm me ?
