MATTRESS MEN v THE GUNNERS

Tomorrow is "Football Kit Friday"; it is the first I have heard of this year's fund raiser which raises money for the Bobby Moore Fund.

Bit late for action I guess-can we get our U14s turning up in their favourite kits this evening and will they pay the price for doing so?

Since the Arsenal are taking on Atletico Madrid this evening, I have raked up a blog from 2014 which explains the Mattress Men's kit:

On March 18th of this year the National Football Museum in Manchester hosted "The Fabric of Football", a "pop up event" showing the "Greatest Football Shirts of all time".

Considering the history behind the mattress men's kit, these articles below might just get your taste buds going about other football kits and further exhibitions.
