Vintage 10Shirt: Arsenal 1971 Cup Final

Author: Jrodius | Filed under: Gear

We’re sticking with the Big Four of the EPL this week in correlation with our Setanta EPL Jersey Giveaway.  There are two winners still to be chosen for the month of November, so enter to win!

In the past we have always stuck with season long home and away kits.  This week we are changing it up a bit with the 1971 Arsenal FA Cup Final kit.  And as an added bonus I have included the Cup Final jacket as well, because let’s face it… it’s pretty hot looking.

Geek Info: When Arsenal’s Eddie Kelly scored the equalizing goal in extra time he became the first substitute to ever score in an FA Cup Final.  With the 1971 FA Cup win, Arsenal secured it’s first ever double, as it had already won the league the week prior.

Who Wore It? Charlie George, Bob Wilson, Peter Storey, Peter Simpson, George Graham, Ray Kennedy, George Armstrong, John Radford, Bob McNabb, Pat Rice, Eddie Kelley

Captain: Frank McClintock

Manager: Bertie Mee

  1. Blue and yellow almost looks like a Leeds United kit. Looks good.
