The Legacy

Dave Jones managed Southampton to 12th place in the Premier League during 1997-1998. Matt Le Tissier remained the focal point of the attack, netting double figures in the league once again. Kevin Davies arrived from Chesterfield that summer to partner Egil Østenstad, providing a new physical presence up top. Despite the rotation of squad members under Pony, the team successfully avoided the relegation scrap that defined their previous years. Sanderson served as the front sponsor for this kit throughout the league campaign as the club maintained their top-flight status.

Key Moment

Southampton finished 12th in the Premier League in 1997-98, their highest finish since 1994-95, in Dave Jones's first season as manager.
