Official Uhlsport Blackburn Rovers away football shirt from the 1998/99 season.

Condition of this original football jersey is 8/10 - Excellent. Excellent. One little mark on the lower side (see photos).


Four years earlier, Blackburn were Premiership champions. Just one year earlier, they had qualified for the UEFA Cup. They were among some people's outsiders for a title challenge.

But it all went wrong for Blackburn, who were soon in the depth of a relegation battle. Manager Roy Hodgson paid with his job in November. Manchester United assistant Brian Kidd was named as his replacement, but he was unable to steer Rovers to safety and their relegation was confirmed in the penultimate day of the season when they failed to beat United at Ewood Park. 

They were condemned to a place in Division One, but managed to hold on to many key players and approached the new season as most people's favourites for an immediate return to the elite.
