The only football club I know to have appeared on a record sleeve is Derry City, on The Undertones' "My Perfect Cousin".

Have there been any others?

Not counting records put out by clubs.

May not be right here cos im going way back into my youth but im sure ciceros song back in the early 90s "love is everywhere" had a pic of the hearts squad on the cover, was defo one in the video though but im about 75% sure the cover had him in his bedroom with the team pic in it.

Not clubs as such but Robin Friday is on the front of a Super Furry Animals one.

George Best is on the front of a Wedding Present.

Robin Friday was on the Man Don't Give A **** single - how apt  :lol:

I'm sure an early Snow Patrol album had Dundee United fans on it.

Saw them in about '85 in Nicky Tams or the Underground or whatever the vaults were called. The guitarist was wearing a Leeds top. First band I had seen associating with football since Slade.

The Hibs team of the 70's appeared on this album cover. Arthur Duncan in his element at centre stage.
