I thought I would try and do some kind of a Thread, based on our past iconic away shirt.
Produced by Adidas, the 'Bruised Banana', (I also heard it referred to as the 'Squashed Wasp'), was used in our last season of First Division football, 1991/92 season. The following season, 1992/93, it featured in our first season of Premier League football.
My interpretation of the 'Bruised Banana'.
When this shirt was released, I said to my Mum, that I would hopefully like to have this for my Birthday. I showed her a picture of it in a Catalogue. Horrified at the look of the shirt, she said 'You're not having that'. So we made a compromise, I had the 1991/92 Home Shirt.
