In the 70’s there was also an orange shirt, and a blue one, and when Admiral made our kit there was a sky blue shirt worn in tandem with the away kit.

From 1980 onwards when adidas took over as supplier there wasn’t a particular first-choice keeper kit – several colours were used for 20 years with different kit manufacturers. I certainly remember a Jorge Campos-inspired shocking pink shirt used by one of our goalkeepers in 1996!

After a few games in 2000 when Kappa now supplied the kit, navy blue seemed to be the regular first-choice keeper kit, with green as second. This was changed in 2002 for black, with a light blue second choice, and then in 2004 a dark grey kit with red trim, with another light blue second choice keeper kit.

When Wales adopted that 1958-inspired set of home and away kits, the home keeper kit was all-black with white collar, with a purple second kit. Another keeper kit, in yellow, appeared when the white third kit was revealed. For our final Kappa kit in 2007, green and orange kits were used by the goalkeeper.

And finally to the present kits by Champion – black is the first-choice keeper kit, with yellow or green kits also used.

What is it with the FAW and kit suppliers who bring back old designs? Kappa did it a few times, the black John Charles kit, for example, was a similar shirt template to the home shirt used in Euro 2004 qualifying, introduced a full three years previous!
