Home colours
A classic traditional design of black & white
striped shirts with a round black collar
and black cuffs, black shorts & plain white
stockings.
*Note "The old fashioned football
shirt company"
Toffs produce a
design that many assume to be the one worn during this
record breaking championship season
but the original 1970's Black collar and cuffs design never included a
badge.
Change colours
Notts probably continued to turn out in the old gold kit although one
assumes that there
might have been a new set in use by this time (replacing those described
for 1966/67),
perhaps the new set had plain black collars and cuffs and no badge.
Notts had a set of black socks to wear with the home shirt if a change
was deemed
neccessary, they may well have had a set of white shorts too.
