This was to be the last of 3 seasons with Admiral.

CLUB CREST

A brand new club crest was introduced, featuring the now-familiar Ox that is still present today. This Minoan Ox "Emblem" was hand-drawn in 1978 by club director Desmond Morris, who was also a renowned zoologist and author in human sociobiology.

Home Kit

Once again the Admiral shirts saw subtle changes to those worn the previous season.

The flared and pointed collars that featured in 1978 were given a less obtrusive cut and the colours on the v-neck were reversed.

The long-sleeved shirts also featured a different design of cuffs.
