Frankie 8,150 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Adidas World Cup or Copa Mundial were my favourites. For 2 years I was sponsored by a Spanish company Joma (via an Edinburgh sportshop) and they were pretty good. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 5,156 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Can’t remember what mine cost. 30 bob, I think. £1.50 in this new-fangled money. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was rubbish at football, so never bothered with boots. It's easy to say 'No!' to overly expensive items when you're a tight git. Our leagues are full of players who started out with nothing. A pair of boots doesn't make you into a good footballer. The words I say to my kid all the time are "It doesn't matter one bit the boots you are wearing - it is what you do with the feet inside them that counts".... And after his game on Sunday he is now on crutches for tendonitis in his ankle 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are pretty common with community clubs, certainly in Bermuda. In fact, if I am not mistaken, Kevin Thomson uses them for his Academy too. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,150 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Yeah, I think there's a few UK teams sponsored by them now as well but at that time they were new to the UK market and I remember getting some strange looks when I put the boots on for the first time. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I can't quite remember the shop's name but they were one of the first shops at the original Kinnaird Park. Where Currys/PC World is now, there used to be a small indoor emporium of shops, one of which was the sports shop. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still got them. Ryan Jack has just pulled out of the Scotland squad. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
