Home colours
A controversial new strip for this season that virtually did away with the stripes.
From the stands, the black dual pin stripes could bareley be seen and Notts resembled the
1950's Tommy Lawton era; White shirts, black shorts, white socks.
The kit was the first of three home designs that would be manufactured by Admiral.
Curiously, the shorts had three white stripes (a design usually associated with Adidas) but
also included an Admiral logo on the front. The socks had two thin dual black hoops.
On 11th February Notts introduced their first ever shirt sponsor - Monarch.
Change colours
The basic design was the same one used for the home strip but obviously with different
colours; Green shirts & shorts, yellow dual pinstripes and trimmings, yellow socks.
