Notes

The shorts and socks were black, with two yellow stripes down the seam of the shorts and across the tops of the socks.

A red number '1', in the same style as on the back of the 1974 white shirt and the 1976 red shirt, was worn on the back of the jersey.

This same design was also worn from 1976-79 by the Welsh international goalkeepers, mainly Dai Davies. The shorts and socks were identical, whilst the jersey differed in that the emblem was placed in the middle of the chest, there were two Admiral logos instead of one (placed on each side of the collar) and the number 1 on the back was black instead of red.  Probably from the beginning of the 1977-78 season, the number on the back of the England jersey changed to black and, curiously enough, by the time England played in Cardiff in the 1978 British Championship, the number on the Welsh jersey had changed to red!
