Official Cotton Oxford Gloucester home long sleeve rugby shirt from the 1995/96 season.

Condition of this original football jersey is 9/10 – Superb (see photos).

Closing in on English rugby's first 'double', Gloucester failed to win either competition, losing to Wasps for the League title and losing the cup final 48-6 to Bath.

Professionalism finally came in 1995, but Gloucester was without a major investor, and lost ground in terms of player recruitment and revenue acquisition. But this did not prevent the club from transforming itself into a limited company.

Tom Walkinshaw bought the club in 1997. After two full seasons at the helm, Richard Hill was replaced as Director of Rugby by former France captain Philippe Saint-André.
