Looks pretty smart......

Has anyone seen or even purchased it ? How does it look in real life ?

Can’t get to the club shop to see it so any help would be really appreciated.

Do you mean the Umbro one or the 1960/61 league winning shirt ? I have the latter and it’s very good quality.

Posted: **Fri Aug 27, 2021 10:22 pm**

I imagine he means the “Peter noble” shirt. 74-77 ish I think.

Quite groundbreaking in its day.

It’s a great shirt. I have it, and I have a spare all wrapped up for when this one dies a death.

Buy it, you won’t be disappointed.

No I wasn’t one of the 46 that went up.

Thanks all, yes the Peter Noble shirt.

Bobinho, have they got the material right ? I had the original as a kid and it was neither a heavy cotton or the newer polyester. More like a course “sack cloth?”

Posted: **Fri Aug 27, 2021 10:42 pm**

Mmmm… it’s quite a modern material, but not like the really light stuff they are made from now.

I had the “toffs” reproduction of it without the Umbro diamonds in white on it, and that was heavy cotton, but the new Umbro repro is much lighter.

I love it. Never have it off.

Posted: **Fri Aug 27, 2021 10:49 pm**

Cheers Bob, going to purchase it.

I think the 1960/61 league winning shirt will be a Spurs shirt

I ended up selling my toffs one on ebay, i was too weak to wear it

Talking about the 1960 retro shirt, like the one that Jordon North was sporting outside the Turf, I have an unworn, brand new one in a xxl size which cost £30, it’s massive and way too big for me.
I am happy to give it away to a fellow claret for free (perhaps a donation to the food bank)
I would also be happy to post it on to whoever would like it.
I will need your postal address, unless you live near Durham haha.

Hi Charlie, I’m about 46

Was a crap shirt then. It’s still a crap shirt.

Really I wouldn’t say that.

My first replica Burnley shirt, a Christmas present in 1976 and the my first Subbuteo team (Christmas’77). The ‘V’ shirt is one of my all time favourites.

We were playing in that shirt when I first started watching us. Even that nostalgic thought is not enough to redeem that ridiculous blue V.
However I respect your difference of opinion.

At least it's original, unlike the Aston Villa copy kit.

Yes I think it was original at the time but might be wrong, compared with some of the nonsense shirts we have seen since it seems quite an original effort.

We got relegated almost every time we changed our kit in the 70’s and 80’s.

Makes no difference what so ever what shirt we got relegated in, its the bodies in the shirts that count

Hi Eyres great, it’s yours, not sure how to get in touch, perhaps post your email address (which can be deleted I think) ?

I hope they remembered to order the retro shirts unlike the away shirts

Posted: **Sun Aug 29, 2021 11:04 am**

I also bought the 1988 away retro.

Looks like a very faithful reproduction, minus the Spall badge.
