longtimeblue Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 As much as I like Marshall, I don't think his signature has added anything to the value of the shirt. It's a rare, retro and wearable shirt. It'd have done better without. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc1955 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Wasn't that in reference to Robert Maxwell of Mirror Group.....am I dreaming this or did his name appear on the shirt for just one game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and was more than one game. Local sponsor given the Mirror's presence in Hollinwood at the time. i think we had different home and away sponsors at the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had Lees for home shirts, and Maxwell for away (in both red and blue versions). Incidentally I acquired a blue Maxwell one with No. 5 on the back when I was a schoolkid hanging around Sheepfoot lane. I can't quite recall how I got hold of it but I definitely maybe didn't nick it, honest. Anyway My dad maybe definitely nicked it off me for his five-a-side football nights and it got ruined. Speaking of sponsors, didn't we have Martins sponsoring us in the 1987-88 season (when we first switched to Umbro) or did I dream that one?

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 And Ian Marshall is clearly the sort of player that has all his football shirts just shuffed inside chests of drawers in his house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Health First' was the sponsor Alan Hardy found at the last minute. The next game we reverted to no sponsor. from the Spurs FAC game in January we acquired Martins Motor Group until the end of the season.
