The Legacy
Umbro manufactured this home shirt for Manchester City as the club returned to the First Division in 1989-1990. Brother appeared as the front sponsor throughout the campaign. Howard Kendall managed a side featuring Niall Quinn, Paul Lake, Clive Allen, and Andy Hinchcliffe. The team secured a 14th-place finish in the top flight, stabilizing after promotion the previous year. Clive Allen proved a prolific scorer during this time, while Paul Lake emerged as a central figure in midfield before his injury troubles began. It remains a notable season for establishing City back among the elite.
Key Moment
Manchester City defeated Manchester United 5-1 in the September 1989 derby match at Maine Road.
