Green or White?

[Neil]

This is the way the fixtures are:

01/06 Rep Ireland v Cameroon - Niigata
05/06 Germany v Rep Ireland - Ibaraki
11/06 Saudi Arabia v Rep Ireland - Yokohama

Does this mean Ireland will wear green against Cameroon? I think the Saudis wear white so we'll probably be wearing green in all three group games?

I think in the 9 WC games we've played to date we may only have played in green in only 2 games (England & Norway?) at most. Maybe due to the heat in other WCs the FAI were keen to wear the lighter colour?

I may be incorrect but I think the Saudis 'home' colours are all green?

I'd like us to play in green a bit more as probably be the humidity more than heat be the problem in japan.....

I read it in a few different papers, the FAI officially announced it about a month ago.
