My first ever 1985 Everton football shirt

The monstrosity that is the Everton 1985-86 home shirt. While being born into the misery that is supporting Plymouth Argyle, a short-lived top-flight glory-supporting soft spot was reserved for Lineker and co. Possibly out of sympathy for this kit.

What is your favourite ever football shirt?

My favourite shirt is the Sampdoria 1990-91 made by Asics.  It was blue, the badge, the collar, the maker and even the sponsor. Effortlessly cool. Especially on Roberto Mancini.

In the flesh, Scott Sinclair flying down Underhill for Plymouth vs. Barnet. On television, Trevor Sinclair. The outward curl of the stood-up cross is often overlooked as to just how hard it was to score from that position.

Thanks to James for speaking with us!
