Manchester United 09/10 Home Kit to Resemble 1909 FA Cup Shirt

Posted on January 18th, 2009 in Manchester United by Ben1991

Manchester United will play in remake of the historic kit from 1909 next 09/10 season. The team will wear home shirts, which feature a large white V-shape sash down the front. The shirt is made to resemble the shirt worn for United’s first FA Cup win.

The kit is based upon a 100-year-old design supplied by one of the club’s own players, Billy Meredith, before the 1909 FA Cup final. The match was the first of United’s record eleven FA Cup titles and was played at Cyrstal Palce against Bristol City. United won 1 – 0.

United’s kit manufacturer Nike have been asked to rework the shirt – using high-tech materials rather than cotton and with a white sash on a red shirt instead of 1909’s red-on-white.

A Man Utd insider said: “The club felt bringing back this old kit was the perfect way for United to mark 100 years of success.”

    Basically, it will look like Velez Sarfield or Melbourne Victory, but in red instead of blue. I don’t know it woill work, but let’s wait and see for the final result.

    We should do the white with red V for the new away shirt too. Hopefully the might also put the red rose somewhere on there, maybe woven into the fabric.

    They want to pay tribute to Billy Meredith by wearing something the reverse of what he wore? What’s the point? Make it the away kit if they must. It’s almost as if it’s a money making thing…

    LIARS. It turns out, a month later, that every Nike team under the sun will be wearing this style next year as part of their “V for Victory” campaign. Good old Nike, feeding us this flannel one month, and then different flannel a month later, thinking that no-one would notice. LIARS.
