The documentary the other day on Admiral"s heyday brought back some memories of the various kits/shirts I had as a kid. Some chosen by me, some foisted upon me by a relative for Xmas or Birthday in an attempt to sway my allegiance. So let's get the confessions out there and list yours here. I'll start;

Souness and McAvennie were my favourite players back then.

There was a shop in Blackfen called San Fernando who used to sell a lot of different cheap kits that weren't quite current.
Chelsea 80s shirt (criss-cross lines design)
Liverpool grey (crown paints and a Candy one)
AC Milan home (early 90s)
Real Madrid away (centenary shirt)
Arsenal goalkeeper (first Nike)
The Liverpool kit made sense, it was from a trip up to Everton (we drew 2-2) when me and dad visited Anfield. I really loved the Spurs kit, so I stand by that. I'm ashamed about the Chelsea one though. It's not even a nice shirt, although I liked it at the time. Still wear the Madrid one to the gym.
