The Legacy
Middlesbrough finished third in the Second Division in 1987-1988, securing promotion via the playoffs. Bruce Rioch managed a core group including Gary Pallister and Tony Mowbray at the heart of the defense. Bernie Slaven provided the attacking threat alongside Stuart Ripley as the club returned to the top flight. This Skill Leisure third kit dates from a successful period of resurgence for the club.
