The Legacy

Peter Shilton remained the club's number one goalkeeper throughout the 1988-1989 First Division campaign. Mark Wright anchored the defense as the team finished fifth in the league table, securing a spot in the top flight. Dean Saunders provided the attacking threat up front, ending the year as the club's leading scorer. This Umbro home shirt carries the Sportsweek branding from a time when Arthur Cox had the side competing against the elite teams in England. Derby County maintained a strong presence at the Baseball Ground, finishing just five points behind runners-up Liverpool.

Key Moment

Derby County finished fifth in the 1988-1989 First Division, their highest league position since the mid-1970s.
