away colours

Trying to find out Plymouth's away shirts from between 1982/83 season to 1989/90.. the pilgrim kits in particular if anyone has information please

1988-9 was all white i think

I would look in the club programmes from those years..

The home shirts was that very smart design of proper green with the black pinstripes?
If so then they were white with green pinstripes i do believe although they were hardly ever worn due to us being the only club at the time that wore green.....far better then today's abominations, on the same subject i see Pasoti has now adopted that hideous "turquoise" as its official colour!!.....Urghhh

I quite like it. It makes me want to go out and buy a packet of Viscount biscuits.

so the white with green pinstripes home from the 82/83 season became the away kit upto 87 .. what was the away for 82/83 ?

found a photo of the 89/90 kits so that covers 87-90 thanks for the help there

Apologies if I am telling you something you already know try looking on ebay at the argyle programmes there are always quite a few on there

Greens on Screen should have photos from all of those seasons, so you should be able to tell from those Shirtman.

That just reminds me how old I am recognising lots of those kits My first replica shirt was the Beacon Electrical one. Very dapper I looked in it too.

thats just the home shirts though but thanks .. problem with match day programmes was any photos were 99% from home games and as others have said Plymouth hardly ever wore the away shirt.. maybe in night games against dark shirt opponents ??

only missing the 82/83 away shirt now.. might look for some programmes for teams wearing white in that division ..

I used to go a fair sprinkling of away matches in that era and i can remember Argyle wearing a yellow kit with green pinstripes but only as a change kit when the white clashed with the home team.I'm not even sure that Argyle had an away kit as such for the 1980's-back then,teams only tended to change kits when there was a clash-green was not a very common colour [unique,in fact].Certainly in the 1985/86 season promotion season,Argyle wore their normal kit for all the away matches that i saw,not sure when away kits became in vogue.
