    is it though? or is it spangles nostalgia? if we came up with that for the first time today, I suspect there would be a lot of people saying 'how much have we paid someone to come up with that'. I do love that admiral badge though. iconic.

    Putting my artistic head on (actually, scrub that, I haven't got one) I can imagine the person who designed the Shaws Carpet stars shirt being inspired by squinting their eyes and staring at the collar on Clarke's shirt above. :)

    Am inclined to agree, but maybe the BFC in that font on the socks would look the part on todays kit.

    I'd happily take that shirt tomorrow if we could have the entertainment value that went with it.

    Back in 1968, the promotion winning team had BFC embroidered on their shirts in block capitals.

    it’s not the shirt but what’s inside it. You can’t polish a turd but you can roll it in glitter.

    Sod the kit, although back then it was better than a lot out there, it's what went with it as Old Goat said. Bumper gates suddenly; buzz of excitement pre season was unprecedented in my eye, and the football improved no end! Then there was the atmosphere with large away followings, and a surge up two divisions, followed by a close push to the top flight. Not to mention a fantastic run in the League Cup..... ooooh I'm rambling now!:rolleyes:
