Funny, I was playing football in those days and a few days before the first game of the season at training our chairman appeared with a huge kit back with our new kit, the blue and white kit was well smart, then at the bottom of the bag was my new keeper shirt, what the f**k? It was yellow with pink stars all over, put some leather hot pants on and I wouldn't of looked out of place at a pride weekend, two bloody seasons I had that shirt, to rub in the young reserve keeper had a nice plain green one, I was tempted to pull rank and nick it off him!! But didn't want to look like a bully, so for two seasons walked out onto the pitch looking like the football version of village people!!

Remember playing in goal again during the 1990s and being amazed at the 'colours and designs' of the goalie tops on sale then. I just stuck to a plain ish yellow Reusch goalie top that I got in a sale in a well known Glasgow Sports Shop

The bottom one which scernchic r.i.p is wearing is similar but mine had more pink, funny wouldn't think twice of going to the bridge in the 80's with a pink Lacoste or Lyle and Scott on, but this shirt on football field was something else.
