Just got to say I’m loving that third strip! Was going to go and buy the little lad his first strip tomorrow, night not be having the red one now.

First kit has to be red 😲 otherwise he'll grow up saying he supports 'The Purples'

It's the grey kit MKS.
Overtones of that late 80s version.

You mean to say the purple kit is our 2nd kit? Dear God. I thought the grey one would be the away kit 😂 what were NB thinking!

My first ever football shirt was a Chelsea shirt my mum got me from the Charity Shop. I still sick a little in my throat when I see the photos of 5 year old me, completely clueless at what I was being made to wear. Dark days. Mum is still in the doghouse for that. It'll be in my speech at her funeral as the only time she let me down.

First shirt I asked for was when I was about 12 years old and I got the 06/ 07 home kit with Gerrard on the back. I got the third kit from that year with my own name on the back too. The one that was white but had a bottle green splash down one side. Loved that kit.

Since then I just get a home kit every 3 years (sod paying £80 a season to indulge sponsors), and every black kit they produce.

The hideous the kit the more chances to win the league. that purple one will get us some points, bleeding the eyes of our opponents.

I get every home kit every year now since 2006 the year my first son was born. Probably wear once only and then cover in plastic. They will be keepsakes for my boys. No names or numbers. Sometimes I look back through. We've had some beauties and some not so great, but I love them all.

MK I just got on your profile by accident. Is that you, your missus and your dog? I thought you were older than that, quite a bit older.

Former dog now, but yeah that is a picture of me and my Mrs when I was 22 and she was 18. I'm 24 now and a bit more bald 😂.
