An extremely rare sample fluorescent yellow Sheffield United short sleeved home shirt, 1989-91, Umbro size L official early sample, V neck collar, embroidered club badge picked out in red along with the manufacturer logo unlike the black detailing of the colour finally decided on by the Club.
This is the only known example of the other option submitted to then Club Commercial Manager Andy Daykin, along with the famous lime green design for official approval from the Board of Directors, who opted for the latter famously worn in the promotion season that took the Club back to the top flight of the English game, and was regularly featured in the BBC series, “United” that pioneered the fly on the wall football documentaries we see today.
