Not Cov at all then? Well, the look from that era at least.

Yeah, I bet every school picture of that era looked exactly the same, regardless of where it was taken.

It’s def not Murphy

Remember him scoring a winner at White Hart Lane.

A final for the ages.

I'm team 87/88, I love that Hummel design. Won't begrudge the tramlines a victory, though. A genuinely iconic kit of world football.

The tramline is our greatest ever kit and will never be bettered. It's looks ace whether it's in sky blue, red, chocolate or yellow. Found an old picture of me at a school sports day, summer 77. Wearing the trackie bottoms, bottom rightView attachment 44215.

What chance we'll see these trackies in the club shop after the kit lifts the Jules Rimet trophy? They'll fly off the shelves!

i had the tramline trackie. the lines went from your wrists all the way up, and then all the way down to your ankles.
you got a lot of tramlines for your money.

it was a great look.

If I could leave you a turd and a thumbs-up, I would.

Swear that’s Graham Oakey. Donal Murphy had a side parting and was not so easy on the eye. @oakey could no doubt confirm.

Correct

 

[torchomatic]

Slightly closer.

They still look great. If I'd have given it some thought 48 years ago then I would have put on the trackie top too.

There is still time, folks. 87-89 need your vote.

My advice is not to try and rally the troops with a picture of David Smith!

Time to let go.

 

[skybluelee]

Time to let go.

Never! It's barely half-time!

Never! It's barely half-time!

87-89 has cramped up and can only watch in despair as 75-81 disappears over the hill, along with any lingering hope of catching up. The tramline ribbons are on the trophy and the T-shirts have all been printed.

A referee would stop the fight.

Anyone fancy an away kit WC once the dust settles on this one?

I think I have a (near) complete set of pictures of away/3rd/special release kits. There is a rare yellow one we wore in the very early 80s I think which I can't find. I want to say we only wore it once at West Ham but couldn't swear to it, before my time.

Yeah, an away one could be interesting.

Thanks for sorting this out, it's been a fun distraction from work during the close season

There’s no need ,surely the green and black stripes from 72-75 will walk it.

Two tone vs Chocolate brown final otherwise it’s not a real contest.

Great idea! Thanks for putting in the hard work on the home kit WC - a very enjoyable diversion.
Oh, and commiserations!

My money would be on the purple and yellow Pony one
