Saw a reply to a post down the page about favorite jerseys, thought I'd bring it up to the top and get a discussion going (for two reasons, keep our minds away from the silliest two days of silly season, and to give our poor eds a break from answering pointless questions!).

My favorite jersey from throughout the years was the 93-95 away one, Umbro were the makers and Sharp (what ever happened them?!) were the sponsors. It was the first United jersey I ever had, too big for me even when I was watching the 1999 Champions League final as a seven year old! Still have it (bit small now mind!) and will certainly be keeping it!

In terms of home jerseys, I was always quite partial to the 2006/07 one with the white v neck. Probably the last time we had a fully functioning midfield, maybe that's why I like it! what's your favorites guys?!

The white away kit from I'm guessing it would be 98/99 my very first kit and one of my faves by far. The images of giggsy after scoring THAT goal against Arsenal just show why that top was the best!

Adidas 1990-91 (I think) was quite groovy.

{Ed007's Note - The 1994-96 Umbro top with the stadium embossed in it was a cracker but my favourite would be the half green/gold one from 92/93(?). That was one of the nicest football tops ever and not just out of Utd ones.}

Oh and Adidas 1986 or 1988 was quite smart too.

My favourite is probably the white from our Cup Winners Cup victory in 91. The memory of Hughes rounding the keeper and slamming the ball home from an angle, is one I will never forget. Have to say, that is one of my all time favourite goals too.

My favourite top of all time is the Italian diadora top of 1990 wc, like a silk shirt. I'll have to stop this reminiscing now before I don my gazelles, do a few electro arm waves and a couple of back spins.

Remember the 01/02 season, 3rd kit, white, reversible gold shirt made by Umbro and sponsored by Vodafone. Great shirt.


7.) 30 Jan 2014
2005 black away kit, sponsored by Vodafone. That highbury night . still gives me goosebumps.

Deeps.

I was actually looking at that green and gold one earlier ed. The one with strings at the top. Think it was something to commemorate 100 years since changing from Newton Heath or something like that.

{Ed007's Note - That's the one mate, it was a thing of beauty! Speaking of strips, has anyone seen the new Shamrock Rovers GK strip? It's bizarre to say the least:

White admiral kit with 3 black lines down the left hand side. The sight of Jimmy Greenhoff stooping to head past Clemence in mind in the 79 semi final replay comes to mind. Used to wear for games at school . Classic kit.

Green and Gold with laced neck from the early 90's was class. Had one with Cantona on the back. Worth a small fortune on ebay now!
Home kit from 99 treble season was very classy too.


11.) 30 Jan 2014
The 1977 white away shirt with the 4 black lines down one side, adidas copied it in the 80s with 3 black stripes and the black 94 away kit.

Big john o'shea with a beauty of a chip over stuart taylor (i think), great game, lovely kit!


13.) 30 Jan 2014
Bond picked out my two favs. The green and gold was such a bold choice at the time and the stadium embossed home kit was fecking beautiful. I don't think I have really liked a kit for almost 15 years. I feel they are all too generic and unimaginitive nowadays.

Supasub. Backspins! lmaof :)


15.) 30 Jan 2014
It has to be my first United kit when I was 6, which would have been the 86/87 season. I loved that kit.

Good memories.


16.) 30 Jan 2014
Favourite Utd one: green and gold one

Favourite Scotland one: Euro 96 tartan one

Favourite ever: Mexico WC 98 with the Aztec head on it

That Shamrock keepers top is very UFC.

Favourite Kit is the UTD Green and Gold, never owned it but always liked it.


18.) 30 Jan 2014
Hehe Betty, in all honesty if I did try it now I would probably be out of action for a couple of weeks.


19.) 30 Jan 2014
Pancho and midfield general nailed it. Got it first time around as a kid, and the only football top my wife ever let me buy as an adult!


20.) 30 Jan 2014
Some things from the 80's and early 90's are so funny to think about now. Breakdancing, body popping, mullets, perms, shoulder pads, the list is endless. Great times though. I'M 40 now, but the late 80's and early 90's were the best years ever. Still wear my Gazelles and blue suede Samba's too!
Backspins lol. Priceless :)

Admiral 79-80 (don't think it changed throughout 70, s) loved it!

Thread of the day. Especially away from the final 48hrs transfer deadline. I'm 37, I remember going clubbing in an AC Milan shirt 1990 (I think) with Mediolanum sponsor. Thought I was the dogs kajangas in it. There was a couple of years late 80's or early 90's when it was very cool to wear football shirts (especially Italian ones) clubbing.
Mind you bum bags and troop trainers were also groovy. When they come back in ( and I think it may be sooner than I think) I will blow the dust off.


23.) 30 Jan 2014
77 white away defo had 3 black stripes not 4. Don't remember Adidas doing it anyway. Before that as well I liked the yellow and blue one.


24.) 30 Jan 2014
Supasub, love this thread too. Could go on all evening. Maybe after transfer window is over we should do a new thread on favourite 80's things? So much to talk about.


25.) 30 Jan 2014
Brendan81 I agree.

Supasub I have that Italy shirt #10 signed by r. Baggio. It's awesome.
