IIRC a few clubs had them that season. Us and the Mancs, Ipswich, Sheff Utd and Oldham as well?

Ours was also Napoli's third kit. Do that now and Umbro would get slaughtered.

This is what I find for the 91-93 Napoli third kit?

It may have been for Man U and their kit from Newton Heath days. They bought it out for everyone though

Looks like it was a tribute to the 1891 kit tbh.

But we won sod all in 1891 not I'm not sure why we'd honour that.

I may be mistaken on the anniversary thing if a load of other clubs had it - I do remember Man U and Oldham having something similar to be fair.

Umbro did it with so many teams that season, it was probably their own anniversary they were celebrating.
