In this episode, I take you along on my trip to the iconic Classic Football Shirts store, where I set myself a simple challenge: spend £500 and see what kind of gems I can come away with.

Across the visit, I pick up five shirts in total — a mix of modern kits, older retro designs, and a couple of proper grail pieces that I couldn’t leave behind. I go through each purchase in detail, breaking down why I chose them, what makes them special, and whether they were actually worth the money.

From standout designs to nostalgic classics and unexpected finds, this is part shopping spree, part football shirt deep dive. I also reflect on the overall experience of hunting for kits in-store and how it compares to online collecting.

If you’re into football shirts, retro kits, or just enjoy seeing what £500 can get you in one of the best stores in the game, this one’s for you.

In this episode I dive into a Premiership Years rewatch of the unforgettable 1996–97 Premier League season, revisiting one of the most iconic campaigns of the 90s. Using the classic archive episode of The Premiership Years, I go back through the biggest stories, players, and moments that defined the season and ask a simple question: was this the peak of the Premier League?

The season saw Manchester United win the title under Alex Ferguson, with Eric Cantona still pulling the strings in his final campaign before retirement. It was also the season that launched David Beckham into global superstardom, thanks to his unforgettable halfway-line goal against Wimbledon F.C. on the opening weekend.

I also look back at Newcastle United trying to challenge again after the drama of the previous season, the rise of Alan Shearer, and the chaos and goals that made 90s football so entertaining. There’s the emergence of future stars like Michael Owen at Liverpool F.C., the stylish football of Arsenal F.C., and memorable moments from clubs like Leicester City F.C., Chelsea F.C., and Blackburn Rovers F.C..

From Beckham’s halfway-line strike to Cantona’s final season, classic 90s kits, muddy pitches, and the unmistakable nostalgia of the Sky Sports era, this episode is a deep dive into what made the 1996–97 Premier League season so special.

If you love Premier League history, 90s football nostalgia, classic goals, legendary players, and revisiting old seasons through The Premiership Years, this is the perfect throwback.
