Agree 100%, have thought it for years.
It really is so straightforward isn't it?
Avoid a colour clash with the opposition by wearing the exact opposite of the home kit!
There's really no need for Jade/green or Purple!!
I knew all of them, I was only asked about the three I mentioned.......
What do you think Danny boys idea for that is all this different coloured t:shirts with a spurs motif on them then?
See it’s an age thing.......
but in saying that the “ players not doing well thread” there are a lot of names on there I don’t know.....
The History of the Spurs Shirt is unearthing some gems.
Apparently, there is no known example of this particular shirt in existence. One of the reasons is because it was never worn in a cup final, and from this era, it is generally only such jerseys that ever found their way out of the WHL kit room.
Before the 1960s, shirts were washed and worn a few times, then used as training tops, then cut up for dusters and cleaning cloths.
Can you imagine that happening today?
Yeah if memory Serves Greaves i think mentioned that players got two shirts a season and they’d to look after them or they had to pay for them! they were mended as well sewing up if ripped no wonder none survived. Side note the majority would love a 60s style shirt now no RED green or any other colour they can think of white, navy at a push yellow for a change kit if need be......please
Apparently, the reason the navy wasn't approved as a second strip back then was because the FA thought it was too clise to the black shirts worn by the officials.
And for this reason,i still cant get my head round why we didn't have "a last season at the lane shirt"
It would have been an instant classic,sold for years.
Levy dropped a bollock there IMHO.
Well no excuse to avoid it nowadays then....
Refs/Officials seem to wear every colour BUT black now!
"....who's the wanker, who's the wanker, who's the wanker in the Lime Green/ Luminous Yellow/ Pink?" Hasn't got the same ring to it!
I totally agree, been trying to get hold of a shirt remembering the old lane that aint cheap shit
You’d think the club would take a think to themselves Toffs & Scoredraw do retro shirts up until recently it was with us anyway 60s & 70s retro and a lot of people buy them they were...... white shirts with a badge give the people what they want.
