England Kit v Blackpool Kit

[Wee_Bob]

Never owned an England kit but got about 20 Blackpool shirts. Anyone ever actually bought an England kit?

Numerous dating back to Mexico '86. I've not bought either of the last 2 home shirts, they were awful. I actually like the new shirt barring one small detail. I have bought dozens of Blackpool shirts however.

Ive bought the last 4/5 England shirts. Last years was £75
Also got about 10/12 pool shirts aswell as other stuff like BFC hoodies and t shirts and coats

What a match between 2 kits. Whatever next.

I think at £85 Nike are trying to kill off sales , never mind about a multi coloured cross.

Not a big shirter to be honest but have bought a few England over the long years, same with Blackpool ones. The “infamous” black Blackpool away one springs to mind and the white one, for holiday wearing purposes.

I've always been club over country, not right arsed about England until a major tournament so buying a England Shirt has never really entered my head.

bought one back in the mid 70's, Admiral shirt with a red and blue stripe down the arms. Back then replica shirts weren't a thing.

I bought the ‘82 Admiral England away - red with blue/white shoulder stripes.

I understand people inevitably have a sentimental attachment to the ‘66 plain red shirt, but I still think Admiral delivered the best England kits ever, along with those of many other sides.

PS: Yes, before anyone says it - I exclude the infamous brown Coventry away kit!

I won't be buying an England shirt at these prices. A nice retro one will do me fine.

No.

I got a retro 82 World Cup Admiral kit last year, best England top ever

 

[Lytham_fy8]

I had an 82 Admiral as an eight year old and the 86 World Cup one.

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Found one on the floor when I went to the Germany 2006 World Cup. Like a true northerner, I stole it, washed it in the River Rhine and wore it

 

[Wizzerboy]

Jack Chapman was doing a good deal on '86 shirts for the Mexico World Cup, a few of us bought them.
Also, someone bought me one for my birthday (the one with the red stripe that went through the badge) wore it once!

The last England kit I had was the admiral kit from 1975 / 76. We used to play in those as our second kit at Thames.

 

[Macseasider]

Never had an England kit as a kid. Did have an Argentina kit mind.

1st Blackpool kit I was bought was the Harry Feeney kit. 1987?

 

[tangerine_neil]

I don’t mind the new white England kit, but at those prices they are taking the Mick McCarthy.

My first football shirt was the 1982 England Kit - as a 14 year old - buried me - can't remember when I first got a replica Blackpool shirt.
