The Legacy

Blackburn Rovers finished fifth in the Second Division in 1989-1990 under manager Don Mackay. The club reached the play-off final at Wembley, narrowly losing out on promotion to Crystal Palace. Simon Garner led the attack as the side competed for a spot in the top flight. Midfielders Scott Sellars and Mark Atkins provided the creative spark throughout the campaign while wearing this away kit sponsored by McEwan's Lager and manufactured by Ellgren. The team pushed for results until the final stages of the season, falling just short of a return to the First Division.

Key Moment

Blackburn finished 5th in the 1989-90 Second Division under Don Mackay but were beaten by Swindon Town in the play-off semi-finals.
