Just thought i would leave a message to anyone who is interested in the 1968 Replica Limited Edition Numbered Shirts.
I have been trying to get my hands on one for a few years without any success when I stumbled across someone selling some on e bay which have been discovered in a room left for several years. Just ordered one and it came today and is spot on. The guy has about 12 left if anyone is looking for one. I understand that 1,968 were made as a limited edition.

"discovered in a room left for several years"

Its a reasonable defence, my learned friend may pick a few holes in it when the prosecution get their chance to question him.

Could have been a bit cheaper IMO

I got one of these when they were first released, yes, they are expensive but its easily the best RL shirt I've got, quality is fantastic.

I could do with another after mine has *ahem* shrunk around the lower torso area after a decade of wear.

Did this come with the individual number, quilted shoulders and (if I remember correctly) certificate?

A lot of my clothes have done that as well. You just can't rely on the structural stability of fabric can you?

Yes it's its quilted and numbered no 40 of 1968 it came with certificate signed twice one was on behalf of the 1968 team and looks like an original signature of Mick Clarke,

I have a couple of these - my mate has an original he got from his "Uncle Albert" - he says he'd leave it to me when he dies.

Anyone good at "making it look like an accident"?

I have one in the wardrobe, bought it when they were first released with a David Howes promise that they were the first of several replica issues, yes David, I'm sure you meant it.

Anyway, mine doesn't bloody fit me anymore either, there was obviously a fault in the material.

The very same thing has happened to many of my shirts over the years. I think it’s a problem they’ve had for some time and would have thought that, by using several different suppliers, a multitude of different materials and many differing designs they’d have conquered the problem by now.

Just recieved mine ready for tonights game. Very happy with it.



They may be a xxl shirt being relisted by the seller, as he kept one incase I needed a bigger shirt. Can't say for certain, although I know it is the last one he has left to sell. Just a heads up. Great guy to deal with by the way.

Proper rugby shirt, nice and warm for tonight - over a woolly vest in my case.

But they must have really heavy when wet, and they certainly would have been wet that Saturday back in May 68.

I have got two of them - still fit excellent shirt

Pah!

You probably just haven't washed them yet.
