Variations |
-
Ian
Walker wore number 13 against Hungary and China.
-
For the four games
in the 1996 European Championship final tournament, SEAMAN was
printed in capitalised navy blue lettering above the number on the
back of the shirt.
-
With the exception
of the game with the Netherlands, England had logos sewn-on to the upper
sleeves for the 1996 European Championship fixtures. The 'Euro '96'
tournament logo was on the right arm and the UEFA Fair Play logo was on the
left arm.
-
For the last seven
games in which the kit was worn, a navy-blue number one was worn in the
centre of the chest in a yellow rectangle, beneath the emblem, in the same
font as on the back of the shirt, and there was only one set of smaller diamonds on the
front of the socks, with
the upper teal hoop rising when in-line.

This
kit was on duty for England's first four matches of the 1996 European
Championship, and David Seaman, in particular, did it proud.
These
were probably his greatest moments playing for England. Firstly, saving
Gary McAllister's penalty against Scotland, just before Paul Gascoigne
secured a most important victory with the second goal. Then, in the
quarter-final shootout, against Spain, he made the save that took
England into the semi-finals. Admittedly, they lost there, but he had
been obliged to wear the
hideous red
second kit.
He had
missed the previous year's Umbro Cup tournament after breaking his ankle
on an end-of-season tour with Arsenal. Tim Flowers had deputised, but
Seaman was back as number one in the following season and Euro '96
pretty much secured his position for several years to come.
For 14 of the 15
matches when this kit was worn, it was paired with the
1995 white kit.
The exception was its final appearance when the outfield kit had
changed, but not the keeper's. Ian Walker made his first start against
Italy in a crucial World Cup qualifier, when Seaman was again injured,
but Glenn Hoddle's faith in the Tottenham goalkeeper was not rewarded as
England lost their first ever home World Cup tie and Walker never
started another England game.
