Altamullan Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 This one appeared with the headline: Were these two 1974 (cup final) fans the first to wear replica shirts at a UK match? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimburst Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 There are 2 people holding them up that were wearing replica shirts too . I genuinely didn't realise replica shirts were so rare back then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 A quick google search indicates that they are the first fans seen wearing replica shirts in the U.K. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigfella Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 There are 2 people holding them up that were wearing replica shirts too . I genuinely didn't realise replica shirts were so rare back then. Adult sized replica shirts were very rare in those days, small, medium and large were the only sizes available. It was unusual to see kids in them as well, I was the only lad in my school with the full kit, got it for Christmas 1973. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With school shoes (didn’t have Football boots yet) and can recall using thick elastic bands under the socks to hold them up. Recall my granny (who bought the strip for my birthday) warning I’d end up with varicose veins! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
henke Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Replica shirts were reasonably common when I was a kid. But in the days before squad numbers you almost never seen a replica shirt with a number on. And when you did see them they were almost always hilarious in their shitness. Cause the quality was down to yer ma's sewing ability and the material she had available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Nah, far worse than that. The centre-back pairing alone would probably be one of the best in our history. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Plus Kev ditched the reserve team at that time if I’m not mistaken. He was fast, but he wasn’t very good. No Bellamy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superior Acuña Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Was listening to an old 'Quickly Kevin' podcast with Ian Dowie. He says the best atmosphere he's ever experienced was SJP when he came up with Shearer as coach. (assuming he means boro match) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
