(26/09/21)

Manchester United had come close to winning the league title before the first Premier League season in 1992-93 but hadn’t lifted the trophy since 1967, maybe a change of kit manufacturer would be the missing element or just one special signing. The Red Devils did both.The red side of Manchester had high hopes for the first Premier...

My Favourite Empoli Football Kits

(16/08/21)

Empoli F.C. are a small club from Tuscany, Italy (30km from Florence). Formed in 1920, they are only one of seven provincial teams to have played in Serie A, and in a remarkable season in 2007/08 they reached the UEFA Cup.

My Favourite Crewe Alexandra Football Kits

(28/07/21)

Crewe Alexandra are my team. The club based in the town of Crewe nicknamed ’The Railwaymen’ have played at Gresty Road since 1906 and ever since then they have donned a red home shirt (apart from the 2016-17 home shirt when white was the main kit colour). We've seen a lot of different change kit colours over...

My Favourite Middlesbrough Football Kits

(21/07/21)

What colour do Middlesbrough play in? Well, red of course, usually with a dash (or more) of white thrown in. However, the club’s formation back in 1876 saw them start with blue and white until just before the turn of the 20th century, when the red and white combinations started to appear. Blue did make a comeback in 1994, appearing until 2001...

My Favourite Watford FC Football Kits

(14/07/21)

Ah, Watford FC. To the outsider it’s that confusing club that sacks a manager every two months (not true), owns no players other than Troy Deeney (also not true) and is nicknamed the Hornets despite having a moose on their badge (true, though it’s a hart [a male red deer], not a moose).Being one of the few teams in the football league that...

My Favourite Scotland Football Kits

(22/06/21)

International shirts are quite often rigid in colour palette, and although this can be said about the main navy blue colour of Scotland’s home kits, they have often added significant pattern detailing since the late 80s and it certainly isn’t true for the away shirts. We’ve seen an array of colours and designs across away and third...

My Favourite England Football Kits

(10/06/21)

It's that time again when everyone dusts off their favourite England shirts and gets set for a summer of eventual disappointment. While online the eternal debate of what is the best Three Lions kit rages on like it does every time a tournament swings around. On the basis, England football shirts are usually predictable; a plain white home with...
