#14 GORDON DURIE

MATCH WORN VS HOLLAND

VILLA PARK, BIRMINGHAM, 10th JUNE 1996

This kit was altered was slightly for Euro 96.  Firstly to conform with UEFA regulations, Scotland had to drop the purple trim with navy diamonds from the sleeves of the shirts as well as the shorts.  Sleeve patches were also added, whilst squad names and numbers and small numbers on the front of the shirt had now became standard at major tournaments.

This shirt was Gordon Durie’s from Scotland’s Group A opener against Holland, which finished in a 0-0 stalemate in front of a crowd of 34,363.  Durie played the full 90 minutes swapping his shirt with a Dutch defender at the end of the match.  The shirt was sourced from that player’s collection, thus coming with impeccable provenance.
