So, this has just been shoved through my letterbox, and I'm over the moon with it.

The stitching and embroidery is pretty good, the brown ale logo itself is soft, and embroidered, not hard and stiff like it is on the 'Entertainers' home shirt. But crucially, this 'XXL' actually fits me, well, it'll be a nicer fit once I shift a little more timber, but just tried the Entertainers 'XXL' and still cant get that on. So the sizing on this is closer to UK.

Really pleased with it for roughly £17 delivered, and didn't take too long either, from DHGate (ordered 14/10).



 

 

 

 

I had that one..1999? Gutted it ended up in a charity bag, long story. It was the last strip I owned, never bothered getting anymore.

Do we think one of those other Adidas 90s kits would be remembered as adoringly as the grandad collar, had they been the ones worn when chasing the title? Or is the grandad collar still the best at a purely baseline level, forgetting how the team performed in it?

 

If we'd beaten Man Utd in the '99 Cup Final I think that one would be immortalised.

What about the one we wore in 98? Would be remembered for beating Arsenal and that game v Barca.

From a kit nonce perspective everything about it is perfect before factoring in the team that wore it. The balance between black and white, the thickness and the amount of stripes, a perfect example of a sponsor making a kit look even better and the number and name sets were lush as well. (Though that's just me personally: I really am not a fan of red numbers. Would rather see us go back to blue a la 2003-05 than have red but they seem set to stay.)

Got it on release day before we wore it in the cup final.  Got Hamann on the back.

 

Lost the cup final and sold Hamann weeks later.  Class.

Lol ? 

 

 

I also had this shirt when I was a kid ,it was my second favourite kit after the classic 96 one. it will always live in my memory as the shirt that was worn when one of the best goals I’ve ever seen in St Jame’s Park happened.

I had Hamann on the blue away top and Ferguson on the home one.

This was the listing (if it works)...

https://www.dhgate.com/product/retro-newcastle-soccer-jerseys-94-95-96-97/855796264.html?dspm=pcen.orderlistpage.astab.1.bekr6IaJSbNik65vJZvl&resource_id=

The seller was: 'football_shirt', and they also Whatsapp'd on despatch too, which was a first from any seller I've experineced on DHGate.

Annoys me how these sites always have the away & 3rd shirts from 94 but never the home - my favourite shirt

Still got ptsd from being at the 4-1 Leeds match that season. Actually just looked at the team that day, god it was as rotten as the Leeds fans behavior that day:

Given, Watson, Peacock, Howey, Beresford, Barton, Batty, Lee, Ketsbaia (Tomasson 53), Barnes (Gillespie 53), Rush

Andy Griffin's curly barnet in that strip. [emoji38] Was he any good during that time? I can only really remember him being good for us in 01/02 and 02/03?

He marked Ginola out the game in the FA Cup semi final and was generally a good full back for us. Was always a little baffled why Robson dropped him for Hughes, who came through as a centre back.

Adidas apparently going to the trefoil logo for all 24/25 kits. 

They have just changed logo this year.

 

Edit: It’s apparently all 3 kits for next season, and only for Elite teams.
