Old Maine Road photos thread


Still love that shirt more than any other. Not just because it was my first, and I ponced around in it thinking I could be a footballer if I could develop thigh muscles like King Colin.
But it's the simplicity of it. No sponsor, no badge, no writing of any kind. Nothing extraneous. Nothing showy. Just the quiet assurance of that celestial blue, with its white trim, that everyone would know who you were and where you were from.

(The guy wearing it isn't too shabby, either…)
