Robbo's perm was fantastic!

82 was the year for me that I really fell in love with teh world cup though, I always loved Keegan, he was my hero - plus brooking and Francis were brilliant as well.

I guess they just took the union jack instead of the st georges cross.

I always loved the red england strips the best to be honest.

I'll never know why England never went for something similar to the Inter Milan away kit

Carlton Palmer on Art kills me. Is he the worst summariser ever. He makes Budgie look intelligent.

My favourite is the 86 strip from Mexico, different class with the air holes in it!! :thumbup:

I used to have the red one, which reminds me I lost it somewhere!

The panini sticker book was ace, loads of tasty mullets everywhere...

90 was good as well, when we came so close, but yet so far!

:(

I played footy with him a while back, he's so skinny its unreal, he told me his feet were so thin he has to stuff his boots at the sides with newspaper as there's always a big gap there.

I think the home strip of the All Whites is just white and the away strip is just black...but nothing to do with the NZ flag.
