Love and eight
Just like last season’s European Club competitions, our Away Kit Battle will heat up into a quickfire contest once we’ve reached the quarter-final stage – but will your favourite jersey be involved?
Once we have whittled our fans’ top choices down week by week, the last-eight will go head-to-head in a compelling shoot-out for success.
First, though, we must fill the last remaining berths with one of the two strips up for consideration this week – the infamous purple get-up from the 2010/11 season (which earned a wildcard reprieve in our Second Chance Saloon) and the Brazil-style Yellow & Blue kit worn from 1990-1993.
We want supporters young and old to play their part in helping us compile a definitive of list of the Red Army’s favourites and, even if your chosen kit doesn’t make progress to the quarter-finals, every vote will help determine precisely where it ends up in our overall rankings between 1990 and 2020.
There are no more potential reprieves for any defeated shirts, with each winner progressing to the next round until an overall victor is determined.
Our poll closes at noon on Monday, so you’ve got the rest of the weekend to make a considered decision before clicking the button.
