About

Perth Glory Football Club, based in Perth, Western Australia, competes in A-League Men under licence from Australian Professional Leagues. Walkouts presents signed football shirts that trace the club’s story from its foundation on 1 December 1995, rooted in Perth, Western Australia, to campaigns in the A-League Men.

The Glory established themselves as a major force in the old National Soccer League, guided by managers including Bernd Stange and Mich d'Avray, and moved into a long-term home at Perth Rectangular Stadium, currently known as HBF Park. The club collected multiple domestic honours, combining three NSL Premierships with a later A-League regular season win to total four league Premierships, and has represented Australia on the continent with an AFC Champions League appearance.

Support and provenance are local touchstones. The main supporters' group, the Glory Shed Supporters Club, takes its name from The Shed terrace at the ground, and local heroes such as Bobby Despotovski and Jamie Harnwell remain central to shirt narratives, while managers Tony Popovic and Ian Ferguson feature in recent collector interest around grand final runs and premiership campaigns.

Anniversary releases and commemorative runs are most often tied back to the club’s 1995 foundation, so shirts that mark milestone seasons tend to attract attention among fans who value clear provenance. Limited edition prints, framed commemoratives and memorial runs that recall key squad lists are most relevant for those wanting a tangible link to the club’s timeline.

Certain seasons and matches drive demand, notably the club’s debut in the 1996-97 season and its role among the eight original A-League teams in 2004, because shirts connected to those campaigns represent formative moments. Collectors chase shirts from those years for match provenance, programme photo matches and roster continuity between NSL and A-League eras.

Signed retail demand is strong alongside match-worn interest; fans value fanshop shirts and early retail runs that carry player signatures, squad-print variants and region-specific releases. Walkouts listings routinely note authentication and provenance, with many pieces offered with a COA and clear photo records to support signature verification, and Free worldwide shipping is available on selected items.

For the autograph hunter and the club historian, shirts tied to the club’s first national season and its A-League emergence remain pivotal, and provenance from the 1996-97 season and the 2004 inaugural A-League season frequently appears in descriptions, match photos and signing reports. Items linked to HBF Park, the Glory Shed Supporters Club and veteran players are the most referenced when assessing signed Perth Glory football shirts.

Perth Glory FC's honours reflect a club that excelled at the end of the National Soccer League and adapted strongly to the A-League era.

Transitioning into the new competition as a founding member, Perth went on to secure an A-League Men Premiership and reach two A-League grand finals, reaffirming their status among the league's contenders. Continental milestones include a first appearance in the AFC Champions League, showcasing the club on the Asian stage. Cup competition strides feature two Australia Cup finals and two A-League Pre-Season Challenge Cup finals, underlining consistency beyond league play.
