70s footballers hair

[WS18ROX]

I had the light blue Admiral home Coventry kit as a youngster, and the yellow home Leeds United. These Admiral kits, including Wales, were all the same template. They were very different to other strips back then, especially the shorts.

I had the home Coventry strip in the 70's, loved it, forgot Leeds had the Admiral kit as well, yes they were class football tops.

[The_Degan]

Dad grew up with him , said he left Rangers due to timekeeping and not being smart enough nowt to do with ability .

Terry Hennessey -

He looks like a thumb.

 

[Conlig Loyal]

He looks like he looked in the mirror and his face has startled his hair.

 

[Luthgibear]

The hairband was a thing at that time.

Usually made from the elastic of your Y fronts...

My father did it in the very early 80s after spending a fortune on a wig. How he thought finishing work on a Friday with a bald head and then going in on Monday with a full head of hair wouldn’t go unnoticed in the first place. He told me it felt like he was wearing a hat and it made him sweat like mad. After going with it for a few weeks he took it off his head in the pub one night and got it shaved to the wood the next day.

as my genetic make up is obviously linked to my old man I too started losing my hair fairly early, first noticed it in my late teens and by the age of 20 I just shaved it with a bare clipper blade and have been the same since, had same haircut for last 25 years now LOL. Only difference is the grey flecks in it now.

men trying to cover up being bald should just embrace it and shave it off,

I noticed in my mid 20s my widow's peak was getting harder to hide. Started shaving it off a few years later. I just turned 39 last week and it doesnt bother me now. To think I had a mullet from 2000 till 2003 too.

Chocolate mate chocolate, and it's a classic now........back in the 70's it was jobby coloured though. Ha Ha

When he was shelling out for an expensive wig, did he think.......to pay or not to pay. !

Forbes Phillipson-Masters sounds like one of those Monty Python made up posh names like Nigel Incubator-Jones.

LOL.

imre,ever having a shot of it when I was a kid, it was a Jerry Rex Wigan’s I’m sure I remember him saying it cost £800 at the time. In the early 80s that would have been a good whack of cash for the pretence to have hair.

 

[BigDGrant]

Wtf is that lol?

 

[Drumchapel]

Ron Atkinson (Ex TV Pundit) -

The thing with Ron's hair is that he had the same style and shape in the 70s, 80s, 90s and 2000s

[Roger Daltrey]

Guy I know went to a fancy dress party as Bobby Charlton. Shaved his head and celotaped 3 strands of string across his head, pretty funny

 

[Roger Daltrey]

No even sure how you do this.

That looks like a hedge.

 

[foxinthebox]

No even sure how you do this.

This was in the very very early days of hair transplants when they used remove hair from the balls and attached them to your scalp.
"No one will ever tell the difference" they said.
Head like a 70's minge.

 

[foxinthebox]

Rangers mad and unfortunately rejected by Rangers as a youngster could you imagine this nutcase in an old firm game,it would have been tremendous

Doesn't meet the 70's criteria but this look is timeless.

I had the Coventry strip too ,I also got the Sheffield Utd trackie which was again the same template, black with red and white stripes, Christmas 75.
My Gran thought the trackie was a skeleton suit.

I read an article by Kenneth in an annual (might have been The Topical Times) from the early 70’s where he said he was sent off 3 times in 4 games for Rangers youth team. Willie Waddell then informed him that “he was not the type of player wanted at Ibrox!” Imagine this man against Scott brown
