In April 2007 these 4 vintage Leeds United replica football shirts went up for auction on Ebay. The seller added the following information:
Leeds United Shirt Home Shirt 1986-88 - Burton Sponsor
This is the classic and extremely difficult to get hold of Leeds United Home shirt from 1986-88 with Burton Sponsor. It is made by Umbro and is size 38-40. Highest bid £112.00
Leeds United Shirt Home Shirt 1981-83 - RFW Sponsor
The classic and extremely rare Leeds United Home shirt from 1981-83 with RFW Sponsor. It is made by Umbro and the badge is wearing away. The size label is missing but I would say a medium, especially as they were worn tighter in those days.
highest £87.00
Leeds United Shirt Away Shirt 1986-88 - Burton Sponsor
The classic and extremely rare Leeds United Away shirt from 1986-88 with Burton Sponsor. It is made by Umbro and is size 38-40.
P.S. The yellow patch that you see on the photo is the camera flash and not a stain. There was no way of taking a photo without this appearing.
Highest bid £89.00
Leeds United Home Shirt - 1983-84 - SYSTIME Sponsor
This is a classic and extremely rare Leeds United home shirt from the 1983-84 season. Made by Umbro and size 38-40, the shirt is believed to be a match worn/player issue shirt as it features the SYSTIME sponsor, (who were sponsors for that season alone), is long sleeved and the Umbro badge is sewn in, all features not on the replica shirt of its time. The shirt also features the legendary No.8 on the back - the number worn by John Sheridan that season.

It has come to my attention that the shirt is a replica only and not a match worn/player issue shirt as I may have thought. Bidders who bid on the basis it may be match worn/player issue may retract their bid if they wish.
However, the shirt is still extrememy rare and a good find. Happy bidding!
Highest bid £147.00
