It's the desolate new ground in the middle of nowhere that they moved to, as opposed to the pitch in the park with the old geezers taking down the advertising hoardings after each match.

Two things spring to mind about their new stadium - a 12 year old steward tried unsuccessfully to throw me out after a somewhat free range attempt at urination from yours truly (I'm so proud...) and the bus trip to the ground being enlivened by two pigs in a field engrossed in "making bacon".

Funny the things you remember... Precious times....

the old ground was definitely an experiennce.
making a disabled toilet from a portoloo that had 2 steps and too small for a wheelchaie was quite funny.

Well done Rob. I was starting to think this shirt was just a figment of our imaginations.

That was probably my favourite ever away day with the Yeltz. We were amazing that day.

Don't know if it helps to finding the year of the shirt but if anybody has the fixtures I remember getting it as a Christmas present then wearing it the next game at Bromsgrove away..

Paul Harding got sent off at Bromsgrove and we never saw him again for the remaining 2 and a half years of his contract :D
