What's that Netherlands esque top?

I hope that @Quirkafleeg kept his.

The Wolves match worn chap said previously that they sponsored a team performance of the week award and it was a shirt for that rather than a sponsor.

Amazed we won any awards that season

Thats a great looking shirt.

It looks like it's been sewn out of napkins that got hot sauce spilled on them.

Good collar, though.

Was the award for drawing away at Reading? They were about to break a league record of consecutive victories or something along those lines and our fine bunch of heroes prevented them from doing so?

I meant the one DW posted! Not that awful Bukta shirt

I do have a similar age original leisure shirt somewhere, might have to sell it if people are paying daft money for them

Sounds vaguely familiar, it's all slightly before my time though, I'd have only been 4 or 5.

Ah, missed that out on the last page.

That kit is lovely, although as an American I think I'm genetically obligated to love pinstripes (the Yankees' uniform has brainwashed us all innit). Umbro always seemed to have designed really good stuff, at least before Nike started winding them down.

I liked the design of our 2016-2018 kit, but the sponsor was morally abhorrent.

As for Umbro, from an England perspective if anyone ever surpasses their 1990 effort in my lifetime I'll be surprised:

They still put out bangers, don't get me wrong. Look at what they gave to Guatemala:


Fucking Guatemala gets that kind of effort!

Long live Umbro tbh.

Looks like a Miss World tribute shirt.

I'd genuinely buy that shirt.

This was taken a few months later. Waterloo Road stand cleared and the pitch moved closer to the John Ireland stand.

A bit of nostalgia for us old codgers.

Brilliant, thanks for posting, made me feel 15 again

Thanks Facebook for reminding me that it's 11 years today since we signed Frank Nouble.

From Steven Fletcher to that overnight.
