Notable Players

Kit Details

Manufacturer

5D Togs continued as the club's shirt manufacturer

Main Sponsors

Marksman Lager became the clubs second ever sponsor

Home Kit

The overall look of this shirt was very similar to that of the season before but saw a blue central horizontal band added to the centre of the shirt.

The shorts and socks remained the same as those worn in the Freight Rover Trophy final at the end of the previous season.

Away Kit

The red away kit continued but this time saw a two tone red striped shirt with a white pinstripe on top. It also featured the same horizontal band as the home shirt which housed the new sponsor.

Goalkeeper Kit

The Uhlsport goalkeeper shirt continued to see action and was worn the most frequent of all the goalkeeper shirts from this season.

Goalkeeper Kit

This light blue goalkeeper shirt from 5D togs had the same shoulder pattern as the home shirt and also featured the subtle diagonal lined pattern.

Rather interestingly this shirt featured a number on the front of the shirt not seen before at the club.

Goalkeeper Kit

Another example of a 5D togs goalkeeper shirt was worn this season with this green and black shirt. It was first seen on the team photo at the start of the season and used on a handful of occasions.

Goalkeeper Kit

This rather interesting green goalkeeper shirt featured no markings of a manufacturer or a club badge so its origins are largely unknown. It did feature the following season as well but little details remain as to its finer details.

Whilst I'm still missing some records for games this was worn in, it was definitely worn at home to Brentford in May of this season.
