Anyone got good kit knowledge?

I think I've found it for you!

It was used by Northern Ireland as their away kit in 98/99.

You, sir, are an absolute LEGEND. Don't know how on earth you found that! There'd be major rep coming your way if it was working!!

Similar but not right IIRC
Think it was more like the Dundee Utd away shirt of the era (although we had orange not red on the shirt)

Are you sure mate? It looks about right.

This is what my badly fragmented memory came up with this morning, but I know it's not right :(

Think the right hand sleeve (e.g. left hand side of pic) wasn't completely grey.
I seem to remember the shoulder strap was thicker and the sleeve went to white.

See if you can locate a Dundee Utd away 98/99 shirt, think as I said it's a direct copy if you sub the tangerine for red.

Damn it....I'd say the NI away kit was closer

It was exactly the same as the Ireland top.

As previously stated I don't think it was worn after about October.

Never went on sale either.

Nah, sorry one sleeve was red, not orange.

It was also worn at Scarborough first game of 98/99 season (we won 2-1) IIRC. I remember it being worn at Gillingham in the League Cup & at Peterborough as mentioned earlier. For some reason, come September, we adopted the all red version of the blue home shirt (think that was worn for the first time away at Coventry in League Cup R2).

I seem to remember it was blamed on an issue regarding Olympic the kit suppliers for that season.

What do you mean light blue abortion? We wore it at Bournemouth on Sat & have worn/will wear at most away games all season.

SZ's Kit Professor at your service! :p

I may be geting old but it was certainly to the orange end of the red spectrum.

And I wasn't meaning that the light blue/dark blue shirt had been scrapped I just wish that it had been. It looks awful and being blue totally defeats the object of having an away strip.
