Co-author Daren Burney said at the time: “We are saddened our discovery of Bobby’s shirt has caused the Moore family distress.” He added cryptically that the shirt “is no longer under the same ownership and we can categorically state we have no idea where the shirt is now or who owns it”. Evans is a well-respected dealer of sporting memorabilia and there is no suggestion he acquired the shirt illegally.Tina added: “Bobby’s shirt may be one of the most iconic in British sporting history, but for Roberta and me it is an intensely personal reminder of the Bobby we loved deeply and everything he stood for.“Very few people realised the agony he had been through.“It was a truly special gift and it clearly meant a lot to him that I should have it.
