A good initiative from the club for fans, 14.5% discount in the shop sounds like a good deal to me .


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

The 150th isnt far away and will be special. Wouldn't it be nice if we could celebrate it in a higher division, and conclude it with a promotion.?!

Talking of retro kits which the club are asking fans to wear, I saw a picture of Tommy Briggs the other day in his shirt of the era and I hope we can have one based on that some day soon. The simplicity of it with its equidistant stripes and black socks with white tops was quite evocative.

Looks good.

At what point does a shirt become retro? Is it any shirt from before the current season? Or does it have to be at least X years old?

I guess that's a generational thing, retro to me means 70's but regards football kits as Town didnt really start with replica shirts until some point in the mid- late 80's then you can't really go back alot further than that...unless you have a match worn official team shirt of course.

Seems a bit strange to celebrate the 145th why not leave it to a proper anniversary like the 150th unless the current owners are thinking along the lines of not being here then.

Hats off to anyone who turns up in a genuine shirt from that era. I’ve got a couple but there’s no way I’m getting into either of them.
