I would suggest most fans of a certain age know what "the Vince Hilaire" kit was. The white shirt with a red and blue sash, made my Admiral. Is it a stretch to suggest the Virgin kit we wore at the FA Cup final "belongs" (in this same sense) to Ian Wright? Anyway, you get the idea: What shirts did individual players make their own, either through performance or some other characteristics or contribution? If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

Im liking this thread . . . AJ with the Centenary Kit(2005). Gerry Queen with the Claret & thin light blue stripes(1970). Johnny Byrne with the White kit with claret & blue hoops(1961). This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

I will maintain and edit this post in chronological order. I can't second your choices from 1970 or earlier, Eagleman, but will list them for now. 2014 -- Dwight Gayle -- Basel halves for Crystanbul 2013 -- Wilf yellow away kit (Brighton game) 2010 -- Butterfield GAC/Nike red and blue 2005 -- AJ with the Centenary Kit, red shorts 2001 -- Freedman all yellow away kit (Stockport game) 1998 -- Lombardo TDK home and away, especially yellow 1997 -- Hopkin Adidas/tdk shirt v Sheff U 1994 -- Salako TDK yellow with green collar 1990 -- Ian Wright Virgin fa cup kit 1989 -- Ian Wright (red shorts) 1984 -- Kevin Mabbutt red and blue stripes/red rose 1980 -- Vince Hilaire white admiral classic 1979 -- David Swindlehurst (as above). But have reservations! 1975 -- Peter Taylor red & blue stripes with the badge in the middle 1974 -- Don Rogers white shirt with a large claret & light blue stripe separated by a white stripe 1973 -- Don Rogers white shirt with a large claret & light blue stripe separated by a white stripe 1972 -- Don Rogers white shirt with a large claret & light blue stripe separated by a white stripe 1971 -- John Hughes. Two Red & blue stripes without the white divider. 1970 -- Gerry Queen with the Claret & thin light blue stripes 1969 -- John Jackson. Plain green. 1961 -- Johnny Byrne with the White kit with claret & blue hoops Keep them coming. You don't have to agree! Putting these here pending years. Not sure Loic Remy deserves any year though. Also, no shared shirts Shipperley -- yellow shirt with sky blue shorts and socks. Kenny Sansom or maybe Phil holder -- sash without trim goes, Butterfield or Derry Red/blue with navy shorts and back of shirts. Loic Remy Horrible all blue with red vertical stripe.

Originally posted by Ginger Pubic Wig Gimme the year or years you think he owns. Good call but before my time Tend to agree with Teddy. 72-74 white shirt with a large claret & light blue stripe seperated by a white stripe. Btw GPW, whilst i agree about Butterfield, surely the whole of the team should 'own' the home shirt for their heroics last game of that season away to Sheff Weds. This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

Peter Taylor and the mid-seventies red & blue stripes with the badge in the middle. For some reason Jeff Johnson also comes to mind with that shirt.

Gimme a year for Peter Taylor. While I applaud the sentiment about the whole 2010 year, I quite like trying to get a feel for eras based on individuals. Also, strangely, I don't have a super strong feeling since the PL era. Maybe Delaney gets one...? Maybe it's okay that some eras are not linked in this way If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

When I see the superb adidas home kit with red rose as the sponsor from the early 80’s I always think of Kevin Mabbutt!! He was one decent signing we made in those bleak times who stood out and it was a real choker he got injured
