This
light-blue jersey, paired with plain navy blue shorts and socks, was introduced as
a second-choice uniform for when England faced a team in green shirts,
causing a clash with the first-choice goalkeeper's kit.
In keeping with the new minimalist
style, the only distinguishing marks on it were the emblem, the Umbro logo,
the red number 1 on the front and back, the 'keeper's surname on the back in
red and the star above the emblem, which, like the white shirt, was the same
colour as the jersey, so only noticeable on close inspection.
