Really these shirts were crap. They had like a furry inside which could not have been very pleasant playing in. Others had Adidas, we had this effort which really was a pretty poor offering. I think Barnsley used Scoreline too.
Mike Newell was a big signing for us. I think one of the directors loaned the club 250k to enable us to buy him, and it was a pretty good move. Instantly you could tell he was a very good player and we managed a few seasons out of him before he was sold for a good profit. We nearly got him back as a manager many years later, which I am not sure would have been a good or bad thing.
