Our next auction piece has been kindly donated by a member of the Community Trust.
The range of Admiral shirts during the 80s were some of the best in the club's history and generally see good demand when they come up for sale.
This shirt came from the clubs kitman, so was from the batch of club held kit, but in those days players did not have their own squad number. So to be fair and clear, there's no specific evidence of whose shirt this may have been (centre halves at the time were Tommy Caton, Colin Pates, Joe McLoughlin), or whether it was worn in a match or not.
It is a Medium, in good condition given its age, with some minor bobbling on the front and left sleeve, and slight fading on some of the number 5 on the back.
Opening bid £40
