Midlands Yellow 3,825 Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) Bought or given. Full kit on Yarmouth beach early 70’s by my father for me before my own rosette and sticker purchase soon after. Was very lucky to have family contacts at Admiral soon after and got kits on my lap on tap. What was your first magic moment to have pinned on you or wear?

Graham Paddons Beard 2,353 Posted May 5, 2021 (edited) I remember having a promotion 72 Penant and a Wembley 73 Silk scarf. The latter would be worth a few quid if an expired battery hadn’t leaked on it . Edited May 5, 2021 by Graham Paddons Beard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's Character Forming 1,156 Posted May 5, 2021 A shirt with Newsome on the back which I bought about 3 weeks before Robert Chase sold him 😡. It’s ok, I’m over it now, mostly 🤬 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmic Twin 180 Posted May 5, 2021 (edited) It was definitely mid/late seventies - could have been the market. I just don’t remember it! I was very young! 😆 I do remember buying my first scarf from the sports shop in Sheringham in October 1984. Edited May 5, 2021 by Cosmic Twin 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't the guy with the stand near the river sell them? I strongly suspect he uses botox as his appearance hasn't changed in years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
