As a kid in 70's London I had the kit with the tags on the socks (wore those 
too.) When was that? Vividly remember wearing it all for my birthday and 
playong on Palewell Common....just can't remember which birthday.

Some of us are from a generation when to support your team you went to games 
with a scarf, wore 
rosettes and a woolly hat. There where no replica shirts in those days never 
mind city centre club shops 
and outlets at grounds where few and far between.

Leeds though where the first club to start selling shirts to fans in 1975 with 
specially designed replica 
shirts.and I do have some classic replica shirts but as I don't like ads on 
shirts all pre-date 1982(?), 
when RFW where the first, and mostly pure white with LUFC script, including the 
centenary cup final, 
and the smiley variations.Plus I've got a John Charles 50's era retro shirt, 
amber/gold with blue sleeves 
and collar
