A good item in the TW mailbag

Actually, although it makes little logical sense, there's quite a bit of anecdotal evidence suggesting just that. The Gunners in their last season at Highbury in that retro kit. The [Poor language removed] last won the title in 1990, I believe it was the very next season they wore that kit with the 3 white stripes over the shoulder instead of their traditional unbroken red.

Growing up in South Africa, the team I supported wom the title 4 of 5 years in the early 70s - the one year they didn't was the one year they changed from white shorts to black shorts.

Go figure.

Didnt Arsenal get to the champions leauge final the year they wore there retro kit.
