Marshmallo Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Red away tops are definitely the best Falkirk away tops. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Kinnear Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 The bukta strip I remember was home, navy with white bukta signs running down the sleeve and the away was white with navy bukta signs down the sleeve. Each to their own but I've always preferred a white away top. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe early onset dementia but I seem to remember that we also had a yellow Bukta kit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Kinnear Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Yeah we did. It was a third kit and was an absolute cracker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie Perrin Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Wasnt the yellow one a Hummel of Richard Caddette vintage? We have had one or two yellow efforts over the years, I think the Caddette era one was Matchwinner. The more I think about it the more convinced I am that we had a yellow Bukta late 70s or early 80s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluegrass Bairn Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Actually there's been various red, yellow or white away kits that I've really liked, but that Cadette-era golden yellow with navy blue shorts was a belter. (And always to be associated for me with the cup win at Bleak House, Govan). For the home strip though, while I'm not averse to a splash of red in it somewhere, given a free hand I'd go for an update on this thing of beauty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be his second spell with us so you could maybe work it out from that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The away strip of that was white with blue going down the side. It was a nice strip. I mind Hibs had bukta as well and their away strip was a god awful purple number with green bukta signs going down the sleeves [emoji21] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) What's the Stardate on that photo - 1970? 1971?

I remember when they were introduced and Willie Cunningham saying that the white panel on the home one was for effect ' when we throw our arms up when we score'. I remember the away one though as being a white top with blue shorts and red socks and that was 'for colour TV'. Don't remember a blue stripe on it but I could be wrong? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Kinnear Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I could be wrong as the old memory isn't what it used to be but I thought we had a white kit 74/75 that was blue shorts, red socks. I always remembered the reverse of the strip in the picture as having the blue under the arms but I could be wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
