England 1987-89 Shirt

Having qualified with the fourth best record, Bobby Robson felt that his side had a good chance of winning Euro 1988. With players such as Gary Lineker, Bryan Robson, John Barnes, Glenn Hoddle and Terry Butcher in his side, such optimism was perhaps deserved. England get off to the worst start possible, losing 1-0 to the Republic of Ireland and then went on to lose to both Holland and the USSR. England exited the tournament without winning a point.

Qualifying for Italia 90, Bobby Robson’s final tournament as England manager, saw the most memorable images of Terry Butcher. During the vital match in Sweden Butcher suffered a deep cut in his head that was temporarily stitched up by the England physio. Heavily bandaged, he insisted on returning to the pitch and did not stop heading the ball, which re-opened the wound. As he came off at the end of the match, with the all-important draw secured, his face, bandages and shirt were red with blood.
