The Legacy
Graham Taylor led Aston Villa to a seventeenth-place finish in the Football League First Division in 1988-1989. This Hummel away kit, featuring the Mita Copiers sponsor, was worn while the side chased Arsenal for the title. David Platt provided a regular goalscoring threat from midfield, while Alan McInally led the attack alongside Tony Daley on the wing. It was a significant improvement after their promotion the year prior. The club finished just behind the eventual champions, securing a return to the top of the English game.
Key Moment
Aston Villa finished 17th in the First Division in 1988-89, narrowly avoiding relegation in their first season back in the top flight.
