The Legacy

David Pleat managed Leicester City in the Second Division throughout 1987-1988. Gary McAllister anchored the midfield alongside Ali Mauchlen, while Paul Ramsey remained a central figure in the defensive line. The team finished 13th in the league table. Admiral produced this home shirt, which displayed the John Bull sponsor on the front. Struggles for momentum plagued the campaign, leaving the club to navigate a mid-table finish without a serious push for promotion or a deep run in the domestic cup competitions.

Key Moment

Manager David Pleat led Leicester City through the 1987-1988 season, which saw the emergence of future star Gary McAllister.
