The Albion have revealed the new home shirt they will be wearing for the forthcoming season.

The Nike designed strip will be first worn when the Seagulls face Lazio at the Amex in the club’s final pre-season friendly on Sunday July 31.

As expect, it retains its blue and white tradition and will include red numbers and lettering.

The shorts are blue with a white stripe that continues down the sides. Blue socks with a white Nike swoosh complete the kit.

The club say it is a throwback to the 1978/79 kit, which Peter Ward and his team-mates wore on their way to winning promotion to the old First Division.
