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

Below is a video promoting Arsenal’s annual “Be A Gooner, Be A Giver” campaign, where players donate a day’s wages to a local hospital. To help rally support, Arsenal sent Cesc Fabregas, Andrei Arshavin, Bacary Sagna, and Theo Walcott onto the streets wearing mascot costumes carrying donation buckets.

Lets face it there are everyday social circumstances where your favorite team’s game jersey is not all that appropriate attire.  Events like say… first dates.  You don’t want her to know that you’re going to ignore her for hours at a time every weekend from the first moment she sees you, right?  Instead camouflage your obsession for your favorite team by wearing a more casual style from the side you support.

Here are some everyday fashion looks that I’m going to pass along to all of you in hopes you may get some ideas in how not to scare off your next potential lady-friend.

Potential new tag line: “10Shirt- Helping Footy Folks Get Freaky Since 2009″

I know I am risking blowing my wad early here, but this is seriously the best looking Official T-Shirt out there in the EPL right now.  Trust me I have looked.  Usually “Official” gear is watered down and made for the average 50 year old male that has already been beaten down by his woman life.  But here you have a shirt that would not look at all out of place in Bumpy Pitch’s line.  Give it up for Hull City for getting this right.  Now Phil Brown?  That’s another matter entirely.

First off, no one has popped a collar since Kanye’s first album and secondly no one has done it right since Zack Morris.  Now this look isn’t exactly my style, I tend to be more of a minimalist, but I know there is a market for it.  How do I know?  Because every time I smell an Abercrombie store from the sidewalk I see dudes wearing stuff just like this coming out of it.  So take what you will from it, but trust me, someone right now is already getting their Barclay card out.

I know what you’re thinking, Jrodius, this is not subtle at all like you said I should be around the ladies.  I know what I said.  But sometimes a woman appreciates a bold man.  And it takes one to pull this look off.  If you dare… try it out.  If you strike out, both the girl and the shirt were always out of your league.
