I liked it but never bought it. 

 

Its funny how the chupa chups sponsor was a bit of a joke at the time and now a classic. 

 

Anyone got any shirts from that era of DHgate? I haven't seen any on there. 

 

The home one was brilliant!

I never knew at the time the Chupa Chips logo was designed by Salvador Dali.

I remember when a French girl told me what the logo was slang for, didn't wear it much for non football events after that..lol

Gunna leave us in suspense? What's it slang for?

Adjusts tie and leans forward with intensity

 

Right, okay, so what we have here is... and I mean this in the nicest possible way... an absolute catastrophe of a football kit.

 

The white base? Fine. Classic. Timeless. Like a... like a freshly painted Norwich City team bus. But then - and this is where it all goes Pete Tong - they've gone and slapped a CHUPA CHUPS logo right across the chest. A lollipop company! Sponsoring a football team! It's like getting Werthers Originals to sponsor the SAS. Completely inappropriate.

 

The Puma manufacturer? Solid choice. German efficiency meets... whatever this is. The navy trim - chef's kiss - that's doing some heavy lifting trying to add gravitas to what is essentially a walking advertisement for confectionery.

 

And that badge! Can barely see it, tucked away up there like it's embarrassed to be associated with this sugary shambles. The whole ensemble screams "we needed the money." Which is fine - we've all been there - but you don't have to look like a sweet shop worker while you're doing it.

 

The number 6 on the shorts? Traditional. Respectable. Everything the Chupa Chups logo is not.

 

Back of the net? More like back of the Pick 'n' Mix.

 

Taps desk decisively

 

That's football!
