SPUR KIT 1998–99


TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR SHIRT

1998–99

Design: PONY
Sponsor: HEWLETT PACKARD

The last kit to be produced by Pony for Spurs
(now managed by George Graham who took
over in October 1998) was this stylish allpurple
outfit. Minimal in design with a simple
wrap-over V-neck and restrained white piping,
it saw a return to a more 80s style of kit – a
million miles away from the busy design of the
first Pony home kit! The four-year deal with
Pony was said to be worth ฃ10 million, but
although the club sported some nice Pony
designs, the kits of this era are not the most
fondly remembered by fans.

Worn in: The 2–0 defeat to Leeds Utd at Elland
Road – Spurs’ first loss in 17 games. Also worn
in a 1–0 win over Derby at Pride Park.
Worn by: Ramon Vega, Andy Sinton, Rory Allen.
