Ladies England Shirt 2006/06

Advantages: Looks Good, Shows your Support, Nice to wear
Disadvantages: Poor Quality Lettering, See Review

...I was bought from JJB, the Ladies England Home shirt for my birthday in October 05. My fiance had J Cole 11 printed on it by JJB. I was delighted with the present and loved the feel of it. The material is great, the cut is very flattering for ladies and I was proud of the shirt, especially with the name of my favourite international on the back. I washed the shirt by hand and I noticed little blue bits from the lettering had gone onto the white shirt. The problem wasn't that bad and I expected it to come out in the next wash so I didn't complain to JJB at the time. I hardly wore the shirt as I was saving it for the World Cup. In March 06 I noticed the blue bits on the white shirt were getting worse and in fact the colour from the lettering had run so much that even if I just wore the shirt the colour would run, therefore I...

Celebrating England

Advantages: looks cute
Disadvantages: retired

...Everybody my age had TY beanies, they were adorable! My close circle of friends and I were huge collectors and between us we have most, if not all, of them going! One of these is England the Bear. England: The name is pretty self explanatory. This bear represents the country England. Whether it is bought as a souvineer by a tourist in England, or by somebody whose home country is England and they are proud of that, this bear is there to represent it. Appearance: To look at, England from a distance seems plain, almost like a basic white bear. Indeed, his fur is white, which goes hand in hand with the whiteness of the England flag. Around his neck there is a little red, white and blue bow - the colours of the Union Jack. This alone is cute, and then on his chest you will notice a little England flag has been stitched on. This adds to...

Review of TY England the Bear

A brilliant shirt for a brilliant club!

Advantages: A new look, and better than ever
Disadvantages: Price: still on the pricey side

...Liverpool have introduced a newish shirt for 2008 until 2010 until they introduce a new strip. The shirt hasn't changed much, but the slight changes that have been made, make a big overall difference. Look: There have been some changes to the kit since 2007, these include: The collar: The collar has changed from polo shirt look to a sort of V neck shape. The inside of the shirt has a new pattern instead of plain red it is now red and white square blocks with the Adidas logo on. How much and where can I buy them? There are many places where you can buy the shirts, for example you local sports shop. However I would recommend visiting the Liverpool football club (lfc) website and viewing all the shops products aswell, because they have many football strips that may appeal to you depending on how much your willing to spend, such as...

Review of Liverpool Home Shirt 2008/10

Good looking shirt!

Advantages: great price looks and comfort
Disadvantages: last seasons shirt (but little difference to the new one)

...I have only been living in Portsmouth for just over a year now after moving down here from Southend in Essex. I have always been a true Southend fan and used to attend matches regularly each weekend as well as traveling up and down the country to see many of their away matches everywhere from Bournemouth to Swansea. Yet since living in Portsmouth I have been following the team quite closely and have been interested in how they have been doing and in a way I am kind of supporting them. Of course I remain a real Southend fan and they are still my number 1 team, with Portsmouth being th premiership team I support. Which is quite useful as when people ask who I support and I say Southend they then ask who I support in the premiership and I can now say Portsmouth. Well now onto the shirt. I recently decided I would like to buy...

More than just shirts...

Advantages: easy to use website, good quality clothes
Disadvantages: may not be in everybody's price range

...Charles Tyrwhitt was a brand of shirt maker I first came across in the mid 1990s, when they started advertising in The Times, and I remember sending off for a catalogue. Unfortunately my budget back then didn't run to Charles Tyrwhitt shirts - now they form a very substantial part of my wardrobe - and as I travel a lot for business I am always needing business shirts. It was in 2004 that I rediscovered them, this time online under the guise of www.ctshirts.co.uk, when I needed a lot of business shirts. I have always been somewhat sceptical about buying clothes online - I have had some purchases on Haburi which I have never worn because they just didn't suit me when I put them on. Other shops have claimed to have stock and then conceded they don't - with Charles Tyrwhitt such a fear is allayed. Having a "businessman" figure - i.e. my...

Review of Charles Tyrwhitt Shirts

A good variation of a traditional shirt

Advantages: The collar, symmetry
Disadvantages: quite thick, not very durable

...I am not actually a Newcastle fan, but I moved there to go to uni a few years ago. Living near the ground I decided to watch them a few times and managed to get my hands on this shirt. Here's what I found Comfort This shirt is very comfortable to wear around the house as well as to play football in. It is not the lightest shirt in the world but still does not weigh you down or overheat you if you are playing football. Style The shirt has the traditional black and white stripes which go well with the Adidas black and white stripes down the sleeve. There is a black collar which looks very smart, and the manufacturer logo, club badge and sponsor are all central. Durability. I have owned this shirt since mid-2007 and it has lasted quite well. There is some wear-and-tear and the sponsor logo is beginning to peel but I can still wear it to...

Glory Glory Tottenham Hotspur - Mansion shirt

Advantages: Ultra light - great for all occasions
Disadvantages: Spurs wording fades on the collar very quickly

...Ok, first things first, I have no idea why this is listed as a Kappa kit. It is made by Puma as Kappa made the older Thomsons kit. Right, now thats out of the way, on with the review. Being a Spurs fan since 1981 I've had numerous kits down the years from manufacturers including Le Coq Sportif, Hummel, Adidas, Umbro and Kappa. All of these shirts at the time seemed great but only when newer styles come out do you realise the design flaws in them (the Kappa one for example was skin tight which looks great on a skinny Aaoron Lennon but not so on anyone like me with a bit of a porky belly). Anyway, I decided to treat myself to the new Puma-Mansion kit in April of this year. We had had a good season and it had been a couple of years since I had bought the home shirt. Being the end of the season I had a right game trying to locate...

England Football Team Part 1

Advantages: Sven has improved the confidence of the players
Disadvantages: Not enough of the squad play abroad

...a nose bleed covering his shirt completely red. The final game was the European Championships match in 1992, which Sweden won 2-1. I think Tomas Brolin hit the winner. Danny Murphy was the best debutante for England. He showed no nerves in his first England appearance. When I first saw him at Liverpool I feared that he was not going to make the grade in the first team. There was even talk of a return transfer to Crewe. But he has improved considerably since then. Trevor Sinclair gave the ball away to the opposition too much, which is a crime at international level. Newcastle is willing to pay £8 million for him. I recall a brilliant overhead kick he scored for QPR in a FA Cup match a few years back. He needs to be given a couple of more games for England for a better assessment to be made. Kevin Phillips was all right. But...

Review of England

Tottenham Hotspur away shirt, so good they are giving it away

Advantages: Light, robust, its a Spurs shirt
Disadvantages: Will be out of date at the end of the season

...Introduction Buying football shirts these days is a pricey game. With teams almost certain to change their shirts every season, as soon as you have bought the shirt, it seems that its only a matter of time until it is relegated to the bottom drawer, never to be seen again. Whilst on holiday, I was browsing the Tottenham Hotspur website and came across an offer which looked too good to be true. If I applied for the Spurs credit card and spent £100 on it in the first 90 days, they would send me a free away shirt worth £45. I duly signed up for the credit card and spent the £100 qualifiying amount, mainly by putting my weekly fuel onto the card. To my amazement, a week after passing the limit, a package arrived on my doorstep. My brand new shirt had actually arrived. I quickly unpackaged it and tried it on with a big smile...

England Cricket Team Part 1

Advantages: Side hard to beat
Disadvantages: Often wrong team selected

...ORIGINALLY WRITTEN AUGUST 2000 LIFE AS AN ENGLAND SUPPORTER I first started watching England on TV in 1970 at the age of 8. In those days the BBC1 commentators were Jim Laker and Richie Benaud. Peter West introduced each test session. 1970 England was due to play South Africa but this tour was cancelled due to the sports wide ban due to South Africa’s apartheid policies. Instead England played a test series against the Rest of the World. This team was a fantastic side and comprised of players such as Eddie Barlow, Clive Lloyd, Graeme Pollock, Gary Sobers etc. England lost the series 4-1 but it was no disgrace to lose to such a great side. My main memory is of Geoff Boycott scoring a magnificent 157 against a brilliant bowling attack. Later in the year England toured Australia and regained the Ashes...
