Home Kit & Away Variations

Long
sleeves

The Umbro kits remained relatively unchanged from the previous season. The most notatable difference was the addition of the word ‘Computers’ to the sponsor's logo.

The club crest no longer featured text, and was simply the minoan Ox.

The 1986 shirt numbers now featured a small Umbro diamond at the base of the numerals.

Away Kit

Long
sleeves

Thankfully, the white change strip featured in more matches during this campaign.

The 86/87 versions of these shirts included the new styled sponsor's logo and the same plain club crest that featured on the yellow shirts.

Third Kit

Long
sleeves

In mid April, a sky-blue kit made an unexpected debut at Southampton.

Being introduced so late in the season (and with no obvious colour clash), it is presumed to have been a prototype away kit for possible use the following season. However, the kit only ever featured for this one match.

Both Newcastle United and England had the same strip as third kits (but with white Umbro motifs).
