Today we’re heading for the 2002-03 season, with plenty of away shirts released by Umbro. Take a look at the designs, provided here by John Devlin, and choose your favourite to go through to the next round. Voting is still open for the two previous seasons as well, so if you haven’t chosen your favourite there, you’ve still got time.

2002-03 was the year that Manchester United wrestled the title back from Arsenal, but The Gunners took the FA Cup. Liverpool took the League Cup, but were kept out of the top four by Newcastle. At the bottom of the league, Sunderland, West Brom and West Ham dropped out, to be replaced by Portsmouth, Leicester City and Wolves.

England continued to travel around the country as Wembley was being rebuilt, playing at grounds such as Southampton’s St Mary’s and Sunderland’s Stadium Of Light during European Qualifiers.

Significantly, a 16 year-old Wayne Rooney made his debut for Everton, whilst James Milner made his first appearance for Leeds at the same age.

Just two years after moving to Yorkshire, Rio Ferdinand switched to Manchester United for a whopping £30million, while David Beckham would leave the champions at the end of the season, joining Real Madrid for £25million.
