Kit Manufacturer
Although the kit was unbranded, my hunch is this was an Umbro kit, as Umbro featured in both preceding and following seasons.
The club crest was given a new design, however, it did not feature on the kit until the following season.
Home Kit & Away Variation
Long
sleeves
Oxford United continued wearing the yellow shirts introduced the previous season, although programme notes still referred to them as gold.
Unusually, both black and yellow shorts were worn for home games.
