The Footballshirt Collection Topic

EDIT February 17;

I've been busy building a site called Club 25 for my collection, on which I'm posting regular in-depth analysis and review pieces. Target is to get all my tops on there, but just trying to get some starting content on there right now. Consider giving it a read (only Scottish strip among the ten on there so far is Livi's 04/05 deckchair) and a Like on Facebook;

Considering most everyone here has a devout love of (Scottish) football, I figured it be interesting to see how many and what kind of shirts each of us has. Have a big catalogue of your favourite club's kitties? Managed to get a shirt from every single league club? Have a matchworn top from the 60's? Show it off here!

Personally I used to have a small collection, but it grew and grew and grew into its gargantuan current size (120+ unique tops). Sadly only three Scottish ones among them;

Raith Rovers ('95 - '97) and Livingston ('04-'05, I will never not be amused by the sponsor being 'Intelligent Finance' when they went into administration) and Aberdeen's '94-'96 kit (so bad it's good).

Quick snaps of sizeable parts of the collection (I have them across two rooms), including matchworn and signed jerseys;

Looking forward to seeing what the rest of you have hanging in your wardrobes. This isn't the place to buy or sell kits, for that you're gonna wanna visit the Bargain Basement section (but you can always try a bit of wink wink nudge nudge).

Which one do you use as a 'wanking shawl'?

If I had to use one I'd probably opt for something that isn't a piece of expensive polyester clothing.

Latest addition to the fold; the 2011/2012 away kit of Romanian team FCM Targu Mures, matchworn and signed by Dutch player Moussa Kallisse. Always a pleasure to find 'exotic' kits from far-flung places (in this case Transylvania ) like this particular top;

I got rid of my collection a few years. Mega Sports in the old Inshops in Falkirk was amazing for finding obscure kits.

Just about every shopping centre inshops had an equivalent. The one in Paisley was run by a guy who looked like Tony Fitzpatrick.

At the risk of getting a slagging, charity shops are also good for random kits. I've got a Tucanes de Cancun one from Mexico somewhere.

Aye even Washington had a couple, I had a very ugly hearts fluorescent admiral keeper shirt with miller homes on which I wore in the hom end to be neutral I as Newcastle picked up their first ever premier league point.
