It’s described as: “ The Newcastle United Retro 1974 Home Shirt is a fan favourite that evokes memories of an iconic season. Significant for its appearance in the 1974 FA Cup Final at Wembley against Liverpool, this shirt will go down in the history books for coming so close to winning the FA Cup. Made with 100% cotton, the shirt features an embroidered Club crest and a crew neck collar.”
