I love most of those, particularly last year's and this years, and the one top right which was cruelly stolen when I was at Uni along with about 9 other highly collectable footy shirts.
The only ones pictured there that I can't stand are the maroon, badge in the middle job, and the purple Thomas Cook one. Proper naff.
I doubt I'd like the pyjama one from the late 80's either, but every time I see it I think of Clive Allen, on the turn, with a 30 yard volley going in off the bar away at Chelsea (1-1?)
My favourite is the Kappa one, but this view is somewhat tainted by an episode of Peep Show I watched the other day.
Bear with me here please! I dunno if anyone here watches the show, but in series 2 there's an episode where Mark isn't sure whether he's gay or straight, and tries to watch gay porn to find out. It gets weirder: there's these two gay types in a room, one on the internet, and the other one, well, being what I would term inappropriately friendly - BUT THE ONE ON THE INTERNET HAS THAT BLOODY SHIRT ON!
I foolishly blurted it out to my girlfriend, who now insists that I have a gay football shirt. I should tell her it really doesn't matter as long as the shirt is comfortable (and it is - it's the long sleeve version), but I chose to simply put it back in the closet. True story.
