Official Canterbury Saracens home short sleeved rugby shirt from the 1999/00 season.

This is Canterbury's 'plain' version of the jersey that did not feature a sponsor.

The condition of this original rugby jersey is 8/10 - Excellent. Light wear. Some fading to the collar (see photos).

The 1999–2000 season saw more big name players move to Vicarage Road with Mark Mapletoft, Thierry Lacroix, Scott Murray and Dan Luger joining the club along with Darragh O'Mahony and the up-and-coming Julian White. With the squad ravaged by World Cup duty and then injury the club's first attempt at the Heineken Cup was not a happy one.

They lost three games by a couple of points in the last seconds of the game and didn't make the quarter finals.

With a few games left they were looking at a possible failure to qualify for Europe again, but Kyran Bracken returned from a ten-month injury to inspire Saracens into fourth place and Heineken Cup qualification.
