I know the reason....money but is there any point in a 3rd shirt?
And yet when everyone loved last year's third kit, we actually wore the away one a shit ton.I'm wondering if the reason they always seem to wear the away less than the third is that the third is always exclusive to Spurs shops, and maybe the club makes more money when they sell it direct
Same question as on previous post regards purple 3rd shirt,how many times have we worn this seasons navy away shirt?And yet when everyone loved last year's third kit, we actually wore the away one a shit ton.
As I said before, I'm starting to think they push whichever shirt sells less as our away kit of choice - it'd explain why we've played in gold so many times when the navy one would've sufficed.
2, at Monaco and at Stoke.Same question as on previous post regards purple 3rd shirt,how many times have we worn this seasons navy away shirt?
Yes, I much prefer the blue kit, I do not like our gold kit.And yet when everyone loved last year's third kit, we actually wore the away one a shit ton.

That is why I am surprised we wore the gold at Sunderland.2, at Monaco and at Stoke.
I have that top with long sleeves, got it a couple of years back for £18 I think. Really good copy, I would go as far to say that the material is more hard wearing and better put together than a lot of the recent Under Armour stuff.I bought an original on eBay about 6 years ago for way more than its sensible to spend on a football shirt. So much that I'm too scared to wear it.
However, there's some decent reproductions (fakes) with the Hummel branding on on eBay too, so I bought that to wear instead:Tottenham Retro 1985 Home Shirt New White All Sizes/Sleeves | eBay
Yep. Never got why we wore gold against boro when monaco wear the same colours and we wore navy then. Doesn't make senseAnd yet when everyone loved last year's third kit, we actually wore the away one a shit ton.

Nah Sunderland makes sense to me. They wear black shorts and socks so there is a bit of a clash there (with our navy (black) shorts and socks). Stoke and monaco wear mostly white with a decent amount of red on it. Woolwich wear a red (and a bit of white) top but their white shorts and socks don't clash with our navy ones so our home is fine as there is no real clash.That is why I am surprised we wore the gold at Sunderland.
Seem to recall we played Coventry one year and had to wear the Coventry away shirt.I know the reason....money but is there any point in a 3rd shirt?
That was Chelsea, wasn't it? I think I remember it being them, anyway. Imagine that happening these days. It just would not be allowed.Seem to recall we played Coventry one year and had to wear the Coventry away shirt.
Yes. That's the one. Although the one before that was just as nice.this one??
When you see them side-by-side, you can clearly see they tried making an homage to that '70s Classic!
Yeah that Admiral stuff was bollocks.My very first kit, I lived in it even though the polyester was as itchy as fuck. Still have it somewhere...
Went back and checked. It's Calibri ItalicFair enough - it's usually (to my experience) Arial, but I don't open it often.

What season did we introduce a 3rd shirt must be quite recent?
