To be fair that Hummel shirt is basically a generic top, used as an emergency 3rd kit. Was it ever sold to the public?
I doubt it, was it even used?
Think it was worn at Peterborough
I made a mistake with that shirt as I think it was just used for some friendlies. As you rightly say we did wear the third kit against Peterborough but it was a different design to the one I posted.

Yeah this was only worn in pre season friendlies, I believe we did it a couple of years in a row.
I still wish we'd worn the light blue shirt. Thought it was good, don't think we ever wore it.
As the above pic shows, white stands out a lot more against blue than black! That one was used in the league a couple of times, was a different one used for friendlies that season.

This is not a new line of Cambridge United leisure wear - it is, believe it or not, their new away kit. My friend, who is a season ticket holder there, tells me that it has, unsurprisingly, caused a bit of a stir.
In a sense, the Cambridge board have done their counterparts throughout the land a big favour, given that, however bad any team's new kit is, they can always point to Cambridge's. By way of analogy, it must have been like being in the Conservative Government's Cabinet alongside the great Chris Grayling.

Ian Wallace - when I were a lad Dumbarton produced a jewel like him every year. Its now 27 years since we produced a home grown talent 😥 Thats why I love the Academy players Charlton produce
He used to have a drink or two on Sunday lunchtimes in my local in Kenilworth in the late 70s. Nice bloke and quite approachable. Usually accompanied by Terry Yorath, who also enjoyed a drink or two!

Good sponsor, a local craft brewer. That shirt will look bizarre on a cold, wintry night.
Cheers @Mametz - what was your local? My sister stays in Kenilworth, but I've only been in the one across from the castle
Hi there,
The pub was the “Virgins and Castle” in the old High Street. It was a brilliant pub back in the day, with a number of small individual bars and rooms. I was last there about 5 years ago for a reunion ( I was at student at Warwick). It’s still a decent boozer but converted into one large bar.

Hummel has some good template kits.
That one was used in the league a couple of times, was a different one used for friendlies that season.
