The Legacy
Bruce Rioch managed Middlesbrough in the 1989-1990 Second Division campaign. The team finished 21st, narrowly avoiding relegation after a difficult run of results. Skill Leisure manufactured this away kit, which displayed the Heritage Finance logo on the chest. Bernie Slaven remained the primary goal threat, supported by the attacking play of Stuart Ripley on the wing. Alan Kernaghan provided the defensive stability needed to keep the club in the second tier. Boro struggled for form throughout the winter months, but their survival ensured they remained in the division for the following year.
Key Moment
