This was to be the last season with Scoreline, as the company folded.
All clubs were required to apply a small competition sleeve patch depicting the Football League logo. This was the first time such insignia had featured.

The Scoreline kits largely retained their general design, with the most notable change being the addition of competition sleeve patches.
For the first game, the team wore the previous season's hoop-topped socks, which were then replaced with plain socks.
The Pergamon logo continued to feature in two different sizes, with all shirts now displaying the motif positioned above the name.

Again, the 1988 navy Umbro socks were used for several matches.
For the final game of the season, Oxford United wore plain red socks at Leicester City. It can only be presumed that the old Scoreline socks had reached the end of their lifespan by that point.
