My none Wanderers and England collection consists of a Spartak Moscow (£5 in a sale). Miami FC from 15 years ago. Portland Timbers (mate over in Portland sent it me). Mexico (from my ex-pat mate again).

I've seen pictures I think I'd explode if I saw it in the flesh.

My mate who I drag to deansgate has no interest in footy so probably helps me not spend all my money by being not impressed by anything I show him

I'm taking credit for them doing an exhibition: told them it's like an aladins cave... The staff thought I was mental

Fuck knows, that's why I put "iirc"

It was a long time ago that's for sure. Seem to remember the works manager's wife getting them from somewhere in Manchester; old stock or something.

You've got me thinking now- will have a look at it later!

 

Fuck that wearing other teams shirts.

Bolton and England for me and proud to wear both (not at the same time) 👍

What about my old college shirt from university times. Proud of that shirt, also great quality. I outgrew it and the wife took to wearing it as a base layer!

I have an FC Goa one. That's it. I don't even own a BWFC one any more, although I do have a couple of pairs of shorts. 

Bwfc + England  thats it although I do have a Ghanian flag which I bought in Dortmund in the 2006 WC just to support the vastly outnumbered ones as they were up against Brazil who won 3-1 have to say never rated Ronaldo until that game his speed over 10 yards was awesome & didnt miss anything .Scored two that day.He was the difference between the teams.Digression over

In a similar vein, I went to watch Barcelona the same year (scarf only, no shirt) and always thought Ronaldinho was just a show pony but when seeing him in the flesh it was surprising how high his work rate was. 

None. Although I did have the pale blue England shirt for Italia ‘90

I've just been on holiday and a spurs fan must've worn 10 different ones

He does say he knows a Bolton fan from Aylesbury and he does pay a grand for his season ticket so I tolerated him

I got the last Adidas shirt we had in the club shop about 5/6 years ago for a tenner. That's put away for my lad and won't see light of day until he's 18 (tight bastard dad). I've got the grey one too, again a tenner. 

Oddly only have 2 Bolton ones. 

The 'inter' stripes adidas one

And a match issue Nicky Hunt blue and red barcode one (he never actually got on the pitch that season)

Now that you've mentioned flags. I've still got an American flag. A Japanese flag. And a Soviet Union flag. Top quality flags from my time on work experience at the Crest Hotel. I only worked there for a week. Naughty Undies.

And Bukta who made the palace kit in the early 90s are also from Stockport

The plot thickens

Grey Toronto 3rd kit shirt - souvenir from when we played them over there in a pre-season game

Classic "Bimbo" Chivas Guadalajara shirt from about 2007 when I was in Mexico

My gran used to be friends with Edith Buck who owned the firm and she used to give me a free shirt every year. Never wore it near a naked flame.

Just checked...Bukta it is!

With Tulip computers on.

I've got two of them!

hUMphrey BROthers originated in the Manchester/Stockport area

One of the guys behind Bukta set up Front Runner in Gilnow Mill, had contracts with Bradford, and weirdly Seville, Betis, Valladolid... Pictures of Valderama, Maradona etc in their shirts. Lost a load of dough under Spanish © laws... Ended up giving me bespoke kits based on what material they had! Loved that, thanks mam 😂
