That's where I made the mistake then, just shows you how often I (don't) wear it!

I have the:

92/94 Home kit
95/96 Away (purple with yellow shoulder pattern)
96/97 Home (Blue and dark blue stripes)
97/98 Away (All white number)
98/99 Home (Blue and dark blue with white sides)
01/02 Home
06/07 Home

These are the ones I believe I have lol. They're not at my new places. Still at my mothers so I can't check!

Never looked good in replicas. Could sport my yellow and blue scarf from the early nineties, though folks might think it a washed out 2012/13 away jobbie.

How do we know people won't cheat?

Anyone remember when we were sponsored by talbot but you couldn't have sponsors names on shirts if on tele. We got around it with an awful skyblue, dark blue combo which looked suspiciously like a T

Don't remember a version that didn't have Talbot on it. Happy days at Ryton under Chrysler, working one day a week, with 75% paid for the 4 lay-off days. A walk-out every other day. Ah, bring back Socialism.

Always loved the 97-98 shrit, the two blue with a huge logo printed over it. Sadly i was only 9/10 at the time and i doubt it would fit me now!

Just stick to the inflatables idea, still got two elephants from the Yoevil away to use.
To cold for an old shirt and am a little bigger now and my brown city kits will not fit.

You can always tell the ones who don't go to many games by the people who wear Cov shirts from pre 2001...

The one we beat United in is pretty rank. I'm going for the red Ribero Peurgot one.

That was one of my favourite post-prem shirts, bought that straight away when they went on general sale!

I quite liked the silver tbh, thought it was quite different. It's not to everyone's tastes though but I do seem to remember the shirt sales were pretty good for that one, obviously proving I'm not the only one who liked it

I've got the old green and black away shirt, but I think it'll only just fit around my right arm. Quite loose on the left can't think why?

I liked one a few years before we went down. The one where you had to have a number on it otherwise it looked like you had a dartboard on your back.

Ive still got the yellow pin striped away top from about 1984 but the chances of fitting in it are a bit slim. Which is more than can be said for me.

I had most of the home and away kits between 1994/5 and 2000/1. None of them would fit me now mind!

One of my favourites which doesn't get mentioned too much is this bad boy.

As I said earlier (am off work) it's to cold to just wear an old shirt and the old ones I ave no longer fit.

The only old one I have I could possibly squeeze into is the awful Pony purple and yellow one from 95/96. Even that would be a tight fit though

Yep. Every home since 1983 which i think makes 24 (from memory) plus 11 aways, the brown anniversary one, and the cup anniversary one.

37 in all.

A bit more modern but I quite liked the "Ajax" away shirt we had a few years ago, white with a block of red down the middle, also got a few from the nineties somewhere as already mentioned, seem quite popular
