It's a replica of the 1962 cup final shirt and should remain true to the original.
BTW I have heard that the club has plans to produce a Wally Lewis replica shirt and a Neil Fox replica shirt this season

Too many retro shirts will see us all accused of being filiopietistic

It's exactly the reason it looks special and like you say can't see how they can replicate it, without adidas backing.

Word of the day fantastic

Personally i think as far as big words go, you cant beat the following works of Mr Curtis:
Well, I simply observed, sir, that I'm felicitous, since, during the
course of the penultimate solar sojourn, I terminated my uninterrupted
categorisation of the vocabulary of our post-Norman tongue.
`Contrafribblarites', sir? It is a common word down our way
Oh, I'm sorry, sir. I'm anus-peptic, phrasmotic, even compunctious to have
caused you such pericombobulation

Now settle down at the back!!!

I suppose the main difference is that the majority of those words are not actually words at all - merely portmanteau creations from the strangely dichotomous Mr Curtis - hilariously good with all iterations of Blackadder, but vomit-inducingly bad with the likes of Love Actually, Notting Hill, Four Weddings and other bilious, sugar-coated fripperies.

Oh shut up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

back to the shirt - if it's anything like the same quality of the kooga one of about 5-7 years ago then it'll be worth having. i think the club only did a run of about 100, and they were supurb.

Is it just me or do we always seem to be in an era of success or resurgence when we wear a shirt simular to this years home one.

1960s, Wally Lewis, 1998 and now being examples

we got relegated.

I know but the season is one of the most memorable for obvious reasons and off field it produced a legacy that's so far unmatched.

Most of that decade is memorable for the iconic players that were pictured wearing that famous shirt, Steve Ella, Mark Graham etc
