        Can't see an explanation online - was it to do with Alzheimer's - if so, the same has happened a couple of times in England internationals.

            'Birmingham City wore a special "penguin" kit to mark their 150th anniversary which had no numbers on the shorts. The shirt had no name on the back, just the squad number, and also had no number or name on the shorts, just like the kit worn in 1876 when the club were formed.'

              Birmingham City were formed in 1875 as Small Heath Alliance. They were formed by cricketers wanting to keep fit during the winter - one of the three main ways clubs were formed.

              Luton Wanderers - formed by cricketers
              Luton Excelsior and Luton Albany - formed by work/school mates
              Chist Church Institute - a church team formed as part of the drive to keep the youth busy (and also as part of the church's wider role in life through concerts, days out, bazaars, sports, pastimes, reading and so on.

                Shirts didn't have numbers (squad or otherwise) in 1876 either.

                Good marketing - deadline for ordering is tomorrow although they won't be available until mid-July - cue comments

                  Can you imagine the shitstorm the whingers and negative crybabies would kick up if our club did that?

                    Birmingham were quite clear about delivery dates, which is all we ask

                    Far cry from us who are often one of the last clubs to announce the kits, and then when we do announce them we have no idea when and if they will be in stock. Hopefully sorted for next season as Kensell seemed competent and he would've put most of the kit stuff together

                      When are our white shirts for this season being announced?

                      RIP the White shirt,

                        Apparently the Trust have received assurances that the white shirt will be back for next season.
