< 1989/90 >

Goalkeeper jersey only shown with ‘home’ shorts and socks.

Primary Colours

Oxford United began a two year period with Scoreline supplying the kits.

The yellow was now much darker, (almost gold) with a subtle ‘brush effect’ repeating pattern within the fabric. The V-necks seen over the past 7 years were gone, with the shirts now sporting a predominately white rounded collar. There was a return to yellow (or gold) socks.

Change Colours

A dark crimson red change strip was adopted, identical in style to the home kit.

Sponsored Shirts

After several months without a sponsor, chairman Kevin Maxwell put his Pergamon Press company back onto the Oxford United shirts.  

The logo featured an ancient Greek coin from the city of Pergamon. Some shirts featured the coin logo above the Pergamon name, others with the logo below the name. Both shirt variations featured together in the same matches (from 9th December onwards).

Around the same time, socks began to appear with an Oxford crest and Scoreline logo embroidered on the sides. These socks were often paired with a plain sock, or worn inside-out with the embroidered backing visible.

For several away matches, the red kit featured Umbro navy socks salvaged from the previous seasons home kit.

Wrong Shirt

For the away match at Port Vale, the 1988 ‘Wang’ Umbro shirts were worn with the Scoreline shorts and socks.

The reason for these shirts making a reappearance mid-season is unknown.
