TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR KIT 1980–81, 1981–82



TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR


H 1980–81, 1981–82
Design: LE COQ SPORTIF
Sponsor: NONE
Spurs dived into the 80s
under manager Keith
Burkinshaw with the very
latest in kit design. Gone
were the scratchy cotton,
wing-collared jerseys – in came new sleek,
shiny, polyester shirts. Le Coq Sportif led the
way in kit design in this period and this Spurs
strip is a typical example.

Worn in: The 100th FA Cup final against Man
City – 1–1 in the first match and 3–2 in the
replay. Also, that year’s classic FA Cup semifinal
vs Wolves. In 81–82 it saw action in the
2–1 defeat to Liverpool in the Milk Cup final.
Worn by: Paul Miller, Ricky Villa (scoring his
wonder goal in the 80–81 FA Cup final).
