Peter Withe's Rotterdam Shirt.

[The Laughing Policeman]

Just saw this on BBC Midlands Today. Peter has managed to reclaim his shirt from that match from the Bayern museum. Where it as resided since he swapped it after the match. Hopefully the clip will be on iPlayer later on.

At last! Something to accompany me on a Pornhub Friday.

I would imagine Peter Withe would have more affection for the shirt than anybody connected to Bayern Munich would. I wonder where our current managers FA cup final winning shirt resides.

I can hear the conversation now :

"Is this it ?"- "oh it must be.......and it is"

I was lucky enough to be behind the goal he scored in as an eleven year old. In the front row of the top tier. My two main memories are of Nigel Spink warming up in goal as opposed to Jimmy Rimmer  and the fact it was very warm.

I was behind the goal he scored as well - about half way up the lower tier as I remember - I've picked myself out (wearing my ECF top) after the goal several times.  I was 24 and also remember that being the hottest I'd ever been at that time - I've since been to Ghana (twice) and that is HOT.

I have no recollection of Nigel Spink warming before the game and when Jimmy Rimmer went off we had no idea he wasn't fit in the first place.

Although I'm traditionally a Trinity Roader, for those glory years I was on the Holte - and the place we got for the ECF was a similar position to where we stood for quite a few years, my lasting memory of the moment before the goal was a very similar chance Withey had missed in the quarter final second leg - thankfully that didn't matter as we were already 2-0 up - but for some reason in the final as Morley crossed it my mind flashed back to that missed chance and for a split second I thought the same thing had happened, only to see the ball trickle off the post and in.

I'll never forget that night or indeed those couple of years and for all of Liverpool's 5 wins and Man Utd's 3 wins, I bet not one of any of them means as much to them as 1982 means to us.

Had a couple of hours to spare a few days back so decided to watch the European Cup Final again and was wondering why Bayern's kit had no club badge on it. They had their names printed on the shirts, but no club crest. Can anyone throw any light on that, or did they always play with no badge?

Withey signed the CD of the match and replica programme when he lived in Joondalup in Western Australia a few years back. 'To Tommo,  in  off the post, Peter Withe No 9.' Its framed and on my wall.

I was 14 & I remember Dad commenting that they shouldn't be swapping shirts until they've collected the cup & medals. Good job Sir Dennis didn't swap his shirt before he lifted the cup.
