Man City 97/99 Home Shirt

Notes from the season:

The team kit was produced by Kappa and the shirt sponsor was Brother.

The Man City 97/99 home shirt for the season was a slightly darker shade of blue than the traditional City sky blue known as ‘Laser Blue’. While the home shirt was generally well received, it was the away kit that would take on a special significance to Manchester City fans.

While the luminous yellow and navy blue stripes were peculiar, with the yellow in particular somewhat garish and never having even been worn before by City, the shirt took on a whole new meaning when it was worn for the 1999 Football League Second Division play-off Final.

Although this game technically marked the lowest ever league finish in Manchester City’s history, instead the incredible circumstances by which City were able to win – having conceded the first two goals of the game in the last ten minutes of normal time, before getting two goals of their own in injury time, and then winning a penalty shoot-out – in fact mark this game as one of the proudest moments of the club’s history,

The kit instantly went from being an average if slightly unusual shirt to being one of the most iconic symbols of the club’s history.

Players included:

Paul Dickov

Shaun Goater

Kevin Horlock.
