Description
Yellow long-sleeved shirts with wing collars and two yellow buttons, with black double-stripe sleeve trim, black cuffs, yellow Admiral logo on right breast and emblem on left breast. Red number one on the reverse in the same font as the outfield shirt numbers. Black shorts with yellow double-stripe side trim and yellow Admiral logo on left thigh. Black socks with yellow double-stripe trim.
Variations
  • Ray Clemence did not wear the Three Lions emblem in Cyprus in 1975, and, in 1976,  against both Scotland (at Hampden) and Finland (at Wembley).
  • Jimmy Rimmer wore a black number against Italy in 1976 in New York, when he only played for the first 45 minutes.
  • Joe Corrigan wore number 13 against Italy for his second-half appearance in New York in 1976.
  • From the 1978 British Championship onwards, a different font was used for the number on the goalkeeper's shirt, to (eventually) match all those of the outfield shirts (the number one had a 'flick' at the top of it). It was also changed from red to black.
  • Ray Clemence wore number 12 against Northern Ireland and Scotland in 1978.
  • Peter Shilton wore blue tracksuit trousers with a red stripe in the middle of white seams, and with the black socks over the top of them, against Czechoslovakia in 1978.
  • From the 1979 British Championship onwards, the number was switched back to red.
  • Ray Clemence wore number 13 for his second-half appearance against Austria in 1979.
  • From the 1980 European Championship finals, and for the remaining games that this shirt was worn, the number was switched back to black.
  • Peter Shilton wore number 13 against Italy in 1980.
  • The Admiral logos were removed from the shirts and shorts for the duration of the 1980 European Championship final tournament in Italy, although Peter Shilton wore a shirt and shorts displaying the Admiral logo against the host nation.
  • For the last five games in which this kit was worn, the Admiral logos changed to red, white and blue.

Penalties Saved

1 - Ray Clemence

  • Clemence had already conceded Spain's equaliser in the 1980 European Championship, to half-time substitute, Dani, who stopped in his run-up to fool Clemence, who then dived the wrong way. When Dani repeated the trick, eight minutes later, the referee deemed it illegal and ordered a retake. This time, he omitted the stop and sent the ball towards the opposite corner and Clemence caught the ball.

 

When Don Revie became England's manager in 1974, Peter Shilton had twenty caps to his name, whilst Ray Clemence had just five.

The car crash that had ended Gordon Banks' career in 1972, had led to Sir Alf Ramsey using Shilton as his first-choice 'keeper. Shilton was at fault for the Polish goal at Wembley that resulted in England failing to qualify for the 1974 World Cup, but when Joe Mercer became England's caretaker-manager at the end of the 1973-74 season he used Shilton for the three British Championship fixtures, plus the friendly against Argentina. Then, for the European tour, he selected Clemence, fresh from winning the FA Cup with Liverpool, for all three games.

By the time of Revie's first game, four months later, in their smart new Admiral kit, Shilton was on the verge of being transferred from Leicester City to Stoke City, and Clemence became Revie's choice. Shilton was performing well for Stoke, but only made one international appearance, against Cyprus at Wembley, in Revie's first two seasons in charge.

The game against Scotland, at Hampden Park, in 1976, was the final straw for Shilton and England's eventual record appearance holder told Revie that he would not play for England again. Clemence made a huge clanger in the game, conceding Scotland's winner through his legs, whilst Shilton watched from the bench for the tenth successive international.

Revie brought in Manchester City's Joe Corrigan and Arsenal's Jimmy Rimmer for the American Bicentennial Tournament. Both played against Italy, in New York, and whilst Rimmer conceded two goals in the first half and never played again for England, Corrigan kept a clean sheet in the second half and made a strong claim to be Clemence's reserve. However, by the beginning of the following season, Revie had persuaded Shilton to rejoin the squad, although he did not play for England again until the first two matches of the 1977 British Championship, as Clemence was given a rest from the exertions of winning the European Cup, and narrowly missing out on the 'treble'. Revie reinforced Shilton's claims, even though Stoke had just been relegated by stating that, "England are very lucky to have two world-class goalkeepers and I must say there is nothing between them as far as picking them is concerned."

Clemence was undoubtedly number one at this stage, and even when Revie quit the manager's job and Ron Greenwood took over, he still looked secure. Shilton made two more appearances at the end of the 1977-78 season. He was now with the League Champions, Nottingham Forest and performing heroics in goal as his club went on a record-breaking 42-match unbeaten run. Clemence, meanwhile had won the European Cup again, with Liverpool.

In 1979, it was Shilton that had to miss out on the British Championship, because he had won the European Cup, with Forest. This allowed Corrigan to make a rare appearance, a situation that repeated itself, twelve months later, as Forest retained their European title. Clemence was to win his third European Cup, a year on, in 1981. By this time, Greenwood really could not choose between the two men and he began a policy of alternating them. Clemence appeared to be the more agile of the two, but Shilton was better positionally. At the European Championships in Italy, in 1980, Clemence played in the first and last games, whilst Shilton played in the crucial game against the hosts, when England were eliminated from the competition.

Corrigan still appeared in the occasional game, such as both games in the reduced 1981 British Championship, when Clemence was away winning the European Cup again in his last match for Liverpool, and Shilton was absent for personal reasons. He returned in the 1981-82 season as England lurched towards qualification for the World Cup, in Spain, and after seven years, a new goalkeeping kit, at last, emerged.

Clemence now had 57 caps, whilst Shilton had 34.

The shirts at the top of the page were issued to (left to right): Joe Corrigan, Phil Parkes (England's substitute goalkeeper for the Football Association of Wales Centenary match at Wrexham in 1976) and Corrigan again, for the 1980 European Championship in Italy. Together they illustrate the three basic variations in the Admiral logo during the first six years in which the shirt was worn. The first shows the regular yellow logo, worn in the majority of games, the second is the rarer white plastic version (also right in close-up) and the third, with no logo at all. We are grateful to Simon Shakeshaft, curator of the Neville Evans National Football Shirt Collection, for sharing the pictures with us. Views of the back of the shirt can be seen at the bottom of the page.

 

The Changing Face of the 1974 Yellow Goalkeeper Uniform
Peter Shilton lines up against Czechoslovakia on November 29th, 1978 at Wembley.
The bitterly cold night and bone-dry pitch prompted him to wear tracksuit trousers.
Ray Clemence demands a two-man defensive wall, against Scotland at Wembley, on May 26th, 1979. Ray Clemence stands for the National Anthem, before defending England's goal against Spain, on June 18th, 1980, in Naples. Kit manufacturers were not allowed to display their logos in the European Championship tournament. However, a keen eye may just spot that Clemence was wearing an Umbro t-shirt underneath! 'Big Joe' Corrigan displays Admiral's new red, white and blue logo in the Wembley clash with Scotland on May 23rd, 1981.

Five shirts showing different number styles. England wore red numbers from 1974-78, black from 1978-79, red from 1979-80 and then black from 1980-81 (though poor quality video evidence can be a little misleading, surprisingly making red look like black from a distance). The font changed in 1978 from the more rounded style (first left).
