The now sadly departed Sammy Conn,  is shaking hands with TG and it's around 1986.  but the other players will need some Wiki research.

Vic Kasule is jumping up at the back!

Correct me if I’m wrong but fairly sure Umbro made and sponsored these :

I was going to post this one. Though the kits we have now with Dafabet on the front and Magners on the back look s****e. 

I think that was during the time we couldn't get a sponsor for the shirts so they just decided to ruin a decent kit completely and embarrassingly put Umbro on the front for a few extra quid rather than just leave it blank! 

I'm not a fan of having sponsors emblazoned across the shirt, but I loved this one, where we had Tennents keep it small and in the corner. Super kit that season.

I thought he was there and I came across a colour photo of the 1986 squad,  on the net and indeed Vic was there .A few years ago I was at a Rovers game and Vic was chatting to all the fans and he appears to be a Rovers legend.  I had great difficulty identifying the others . I think another Airdrie legend, Sam Goodwin is in the photo as a Director of the club. As to the sponsor it was a local engineering company and it did produce some gentle humour.

Absolutely

Great player, great strip, won a cup in it and designed by a Buddie...........what’s not to like?

As the world's first ever club to wear black and white vertical stripes, we've had more scope than anyone else to have a few stinkers along the way but that 2012/13 strip is just about perfection in the design of a  striped shirt.

Hey @pozbaird 

Spoiler

I'm expecting a greenie for that :P

I remember hating the yellow sweatshirt with Hydrasun (no... me either) emblazoned on it.

I would now sell my children to get my hands on one.

Just seen the full image. It's not as bad as the above photo suggests, but still bad and definitely ruins what looks to be a really nice top.

Bottom one didnt see the light of day did it? They're both ridiculously small time, kind of shite you'd expect to see the Dees in.

It did aye, I've got one.

Someone created a petition to change it but it didnt work. 

Evidence...
