Manchester United
95/96 Away Shirt
The Dell
13th April 96
Le Tissier v Cantona
By halftime United were 3-0 down at Southampton. Unprecedented.
The get ups.
Well if the saints stole their stripes from stoke, the devils nicked their kit from the interior trim of a 90’s Astra.
United were relieved to get in the dressing up room at halftime. The players claimed the grey kit was to blame for their dismal display because at a glance it made teammates a blur that blended into the crowd. Ferguson demanded they change the kit and they came out the tunnel in a blue and white striped number.
In the second half Giggs scored a conciliation but the game finished 3 – 1.
United’s record in this kit was as follows
Lost 4
Drew 1
After the game the grey was forever never worn again. They proceeded to win every remaining fixture and clinched the title on the last game of the season. United won the double, Southampton finished 1 place above the trap door.
