The Legacy

One2One sponsored this home shirt for Everton in 1997-1998, a campaign defined by a frantic survival battle. Howard Kendall returned for a third spell as manager, tasked with keeping the club in the Premier League. The side narrowly avoided relegation on the final day, finishing 17th on goal difference. Duncan Ferguson remained the focal point of the attack, while Dave Watson anchored the defence. Nick Barmby and Michael Ball featured regularly under a testing pressure to maintain top-flight status. Umbro supplied the kit for a side that struggled to find rhythm, ultimately scraping safety by the thinnest of margins.

Key Moment
