Robbie B Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 (edited) I have just uploaded to YouTube an updated video featuring all of their Wimbledon race jackets the new address is https://youtu.be/o5O0G4vJMA0 If you do have any additional information then please do inform me and I will make any necessary adjustments, and a new race jacket added. as Wimbledon had 3 different race jackets in 1984. I have checked this with various Wimbledon programmes and the Speedway Star magazine. Edited July 8, 2019 by Robbie B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chadster Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 The classic design from 1937 to 1973 was simple and striking. Most of what came after was ill-advised and needlessly fussy. Are Wimbledon the only team whose colours were a foreign flag? (Vietnam). Was Ho Chi Minh a closet Dons fan? Is there a Ronnie Moore Boulevard or a Mark 'Buzz' Burrows street in Hanoi? I think we should be told. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chunky Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 Fabulous! However - and I hate to say this - but the sponsor was "Montine", not "Montime"... Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly agree with your comment about "simple and striking", and that applies to most teams. Belle Vue, Southampton, West Ham, Doncaster (1969), New Cross, Newcastle, original Canterbury etc... All "simple and striking"! Early Wembley racejackets were the same as the Polish flag... Steve Edited July 5, 2019 by chunky 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donnie Posted July 6, 2019 Report Share Posted July 6, 2019 A good viewing, enjoyed it, have to say the "classic" jacket was miles better than some of the over fussy jackets from late 70s onwards. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't agree more...the simpler the design the better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
