The Arsenal first team players for the 2007/08 season.

The home kits

Season 2008 - 2010

What the hell? What is this mess? Nike look to be on a crusade to get The Arsenal playing in pure red tops. This latest bastardisation of the famous red and white only just has enough white material on it to pass EU regulations as an Arsenal bit of clobber. This top just reminds me of a training top and not the real McCoy.

And to add insult to injury (sit down Robin) the top looks like an old northern monkeys Middlesboro kit.

 

Season 2006-08

After a year off for good behaviour The Arsenal’s famous red and white shirt makes a comeback. And what a comeback it is, proper top with a spanking brand new sponsor into the bargain, ‘Emirates’ to go with the posh new gaff, which is nice.

 

Season 2005-06

The Commemorative ‘Farewell to Highbury’ number. The jury was our when this fruity redcurrant top first appeared but most Gooner's worth their salt bought this 'Farewell to Highbury' number, would be rude not to.

 

Season 2004-05

The jury was out on this one, but it's not too bad and it definitely isn't ugly, not sure what Nike are doing with their generic kits though. The front is proper but the back - we still aren't too sure on.

 

Season 2002 - 04

Another great shirt by Nike, and another double winning shirt into the bargain as well! Bobby Pires made this shirt look great. I must admit looking at this kit brings back so many memories. You can almost feel Bergkamp, Henry, Vieira, Pires, Campbell in the area.

Season 1999 - 2000

Classic. It's 'same again please', but this time we had a new sponsor in the shape of the doomed 'Dreamcast' does anyone even know what one of those are? Let alone what you do with it? Answers on a postcard to the usual address.

Season 1998 - 1999

Classic. "Are you Ajax in disguise?" was the first chant when this shirt was unveiled, another true classic - what more can we say?

Season 1996 - 98

Nikes next effort and they get it bang on for the second time of asking.. and as we all know we did the double in this one.. 'ave it! A true classic.

Season 1994 - 96

Nikes first bash at our home shirt. This was the shirt that Nike infamously wanted all red with no white sleeves, yeah likely Nike - try again!

Season 1992 - 94

The only good thing about this shirt is that we can all picture Smudger hitting the winner against Parma and running around like a nutter other than that the less said about this number the better.

Season 1990 - 92

Another good effort from Adidas. Although bit unsure about the nice shiny 'pattern' within the red, even though it was a new decade the top still looks very eighties and you wouldn't look out of place buying this from Mr. Byrites wearing your white socks and brogues or seeing a Eastern European fella sporting it.

Season 1988 - 1999

Another classic
The brand with the three stripes does it again, Adidas couldn't do no wrong, another classic looking football top.

Season 1986

1986 saw the 'brand with ‘the three stripes' take over from Umbro as the kit makers, nice work fella's. Also it saw the first use of sponsors on shirts. Every time I look at this shirt I just think of Charlie Nicholas in the 1987 League Cup final against northern monkeys, hub cap nicking, shell suit wearing, dole claiming Scouser's of Liverpool.

Season 1985

An Old Skool classic, Umbro were the kit makers in the day. There was another version of this shirt which had the words 'Centenary' around the cannon, looks the dog don’t you reckon Gooner's?

The Arsenal Away Kits

Season 2008 (20th Anniversary number of title winning shirt)

Another one off special 'for one season only' from the marketing men (or women) at The Arsenal. How deep to these people think our pockets are? I'm sure no Gooner needs to be reminded what the celebration of this famous blue and yellow number is for. If you do need to be reminded then I'm not sure what you're doing on this site.

 

Season 2007-08

A white away shirt? You sure? Many a debate has been had about this effort. Such is the reaction this shirt has caused some people wanted to boycott the shop, blockade it and the rest.

Still open to debate whether this shirt is ‘proper’ Arsenal though.

 

Season 2006 - 07

The new look yellow with a bit of black trim thrown in my good measure. Now sporting the 'Fly Emirates' logo across the front, reportedly worth a ton of cash alongside the naming of the stadium - Ashburton Grove.

The only thing of note about this top really is that it was the one worn when we played Barcelona in the Champions League Final 2006 in Paris, which obviously doesn't harbour pleasant memories, nice top though.

 

Season 2005 - 06

Back to 'mellow yellow'. Got out of the blue and it's yellow so we like it. Obviously some will fork out for yet another one as the 2006/07 season will have the new ‘Fly Emirates’ sponsors on the front, pah!

 

Season 2004 - 05

Again we go back to the blue away kit. However it must be said as much as we don't like blue as our away colour - this blue away top is one of the better ones, but that doesn’t mean Allgoonerdup agrees with future blue numbers.

Season 2003 - 04

Oh hell yeah! yellow where have you been all this time? simple and proper stylish. Simply one of the best ever away tops we have produced, closing on the retro 1970's style top, which is still the favourite.

Season 2002 - 2003

Again boys at Nike, you get it right one season then promptly f*ck it up the following one. Said it before - blue? You sure? Do not pass go, do not collect £200, just ‘do one’

Season 2000 - 2002

This is by far one of the best away shirts The Arsenal have had and we remained unbeaten into the bargain in this gold number. Nike - Good work fella's.

Season 1999 - 2001

Nike getting into the groove now, very much just the 'away colours' of yellow and blue taking over from the red and white of the home kit but instead of 'Dreamcast' the away kit had the SEGA name blazoned across it, we think they make toasters or something like that.

Season 1997 - 99

Another classic from Nike, finally getting with the programme. Bit of nostalgia, when seeing this shirt we just think Marc Overmars, Old Trafford 14th march 1998...and that nutty Gooner with the curly hair and mad as feck eyes in the stand’s going absolutely ballistic. 'Ave it!!

Season 1996 - 97

Hang about, stop the press, the bods at Nike finally realise that our 'true' away colour is yellow and thank f*ck they got it right this time.

Season 1995 - 96

Nikes' second attempt at our away kit was even worst than their first effort, but once again boys - blue? We're the f*cking reds! And no, having the ‘lightening bolt’ doesn’t distract from this top being well really sh*t.

Season 1994 - 95

Nikes first effort for the away shirt, only one word for this shirt... BLUE?!

Season 1993 - 94

Not sure at all what the designers were thinking on this one, looks like one of the boys has been run over by a heavy duty goods truck, that or a bike ridden by journo Martin Samuels. Back to the drawing board Nike.

Season 1991 - 93

The old bruised banana shirt, that's what happens when you give Stevie Wonder a crate of Tennants 'Super T' some paper and a box of crayons. Jesus, what were Adidas thinking? One word, NO!

Season 1988 - 1991

Adidas opting for a touch of blue sleeves.. nice job, but anytime I see this one I just think Anfield 26th May 1989... "a good ball by Dixon finding Smith.. for ~Thomas.. charging through the midfield, Thomas.. its all up for grabs now...Thomasssssss" ‘Ave it!

Season 1986 - 88

Adidas take the mantle as kit makers and come out with a mid-eighties classic, simple and stylish, we’re liking this one, very much.

Season 1984 - 85

True to form this eighties number has that nice 'shiny' 'shiny' look.. Mmm suits you sir. Not a bad shirt if you think about the sh*t that did come out of the eighties.

Season 1982 - 84

Ugly (and then some)
What the hell were Umbro thinking when they designed this beast and I use the term 'designed' in the most loosest form possible, one word.. actually two... fecking green?!

The Arsenal Commemorative and Special one off kits

Season 2007 - 08 (Third Kit)

One question? Why.

Possible answer. To fleece the fans of their hard earned dough. If we’re going to have a third kit at least make it look the doggs bollocks.

European kit - my arse!

 

Champions League 2000 kit

Never really got our heads round The Arsenal playing in blue kits. This one was used for the Champions League campaign 2000-01. Out of all the blue kits we have had this one isn't too bad, but still, The Arsenal should never ever under no circumstances wear blue, ever - pah!

1930 F. A. Cup Final

Used in the 1930 FA Cup Final vs northern monkeys that there Huddersfield Town - we beat them 2-0, which is nice.

 

1933

Herbert Chapman gave the famous Arsenal shirts the white sleeves and red torso look and we haven't looked back since.

 

1950 F. A. Cup Final

No not a dodgy keepers top but the one used in the 1950 FA Cup final. The Arsenal played the hub cap nicking, shell suit wearing, dole claiming Scouser's of Liverpool and the manager Tom Whittaker came up with the bright orange number as both teams had to change from their usual red strips. Probably worth a fortune on eBay.

1970 Away kit

The classic 1970's away shirt made famous by Charlie George and 'THAT' goal celebration against the hub cap nicking, shell suit wearing, dole claiming Scouser's of Liverpool at Wembley 1971.

1970 Home kit

The classic 100% cotton home top from the 1970's still simple and stylish after all these years. The top simply shouts out über-cool, or super cool in proper money.
