New logo on the way

May 1, 2004

The new official FAI logo is set to be launched at the end of this month, at the same time that Irish Supporters Clubs in America will come on stream.

The Football Association of Ireland are to go on a new merchandising spree with a raft of new collectable items to go on sale. The new logo is expected to be launched before the game against Romania and should feature on the jerseys for that game.

:D ahh, the good ol' FAI.

So what happens to those of us who bought a 'new' Ireland jersey with the 'old' logo on? :confused:

Actually, how can this work wouldn't they have to recall all the Ireland gear and replace it with new stock?

A nice earner for the FAI, I'm sure. Why bother changing the badge? There's no need to. I quite like the current one.

No need to change the crest. This will be the third change in less than 15 years, which is ridiculous.

Well lads .... you are entitled to your opinion (i actually agree with you all) but simple fact ..... the supporters dont have an opinion on this one. There is no united supporters voice barr Alan Hunter so there is no point in whinging.

How can anyone possible expect the FAI to take fans opinions into consideration when there is no one to mediate with.

I think the current crest is fairly naff. Crest change would explain why current jersey being sold at discount price.
