The advances in textile technology meant that football shirt designs were becoming more and more complex and not particularly easy on the eye!
The match shirts were replaced mid-November, with shirts featuring a different style of numbers. The new simpler numerals were thinner and also featured a small Matchwinner symbol at the base.
Opinions regarding this red, white and blue change kit proved to be divisive amongst fans, many nicknaming the shirts as ‘the deck-chair’ shirts.
These adventurous multi-coloured designs were really pushing the boundaries of what was acceptable to the FA.
Similar shirts to these were seen throughout the domestic leagues, with Wigan Athletic, Preston North End and St Mirren all having this same design, but in different colour combinations.
