Rules
- You're shown a club's kit-supplier or shirt-sponsor history in chronological order.
- Three entries are hidden ('???') to start — reveal them as hints if you're stuck.
- Type the club name into the input and submit to guess.
- Score: 0 hints = 10pts, 1 hint = 6, 2 hints = 4, 3 hints = 2. Wrong guesses are free.
- Out of hints? Hit 'Give up' to reveal the answer + kit-history fun fact.
Tips
- The visible entries usually anchor an era — match the dates to a club's history.
- Kit suppliers (Adidas, Nike, Puma) repeat across many clubs; the order is what makes it unique.
- Shirt sponsors often tell you the country/region — a Japanese electronics brand probably means a 90s English club.
