As a non-Brit, I've tripped up on a few surprise Chelsea Amiga football jersey auctions on occasion out there in the wild.

Was it only one team for one season? What are the varieties of jerseys available with AMIGA on the front? What's the story of it?

Thanks for providing any info about these.

Commodore was a sponsor to the following teams:

Auxerre (France) during the period 91-92
Bayern Munich (Germany) 84-89
Chelsea (UK) 87-94
Paris St-Germain (France) 93-94

As "Amiga" name:

Bayern Munich during period 1988
Chelsea during the period 1993-1994

As for Bayern Munich's jersey it's really unique, as it says "Kiss Me Amiga"

The link below will take you to information on Commodore's involvement with Chelsea FC and the kits that carried their brand. Does not seem to be complete though - home and away game kits don't to be be fully represented, nor do "third" or training kits.

Thanks you guys. Appreciate the education on the kit, the link, the rare Jersey photo.

I guess one remaining question would be where did this leave fans of Tottenham, Arsenal, Leeds and Liverpool?

No Amiga's were sold in those team's regions, right? :)
