Can everyone try and wear green for the game rather than the white away jersey. Obviously the German supporters will all be wearing white so it will stand out more if we wear green, especially as we will be spread out around the ground.

I agree 100%, only green should be worn, no away jersys, no celtic or EL jersys GAA jersys etc, they can be worn the night before, day of game etc but please not to the stadium, a green irish rugby jersy is grand or if its only a green jumper grand just no other colour please. youd never see the dutch wearing anything bar their boiler suits!!

I am so relieved, I always thought I was the only one whoever wore both green and white (home and away) shirts. I probably just didnt realize it when people wore white shirts, because of course the green ones are recognizable from far away.

It always looks good when there is a sea of one colour from sets of fans e.g. Swedan and Holland. But I'll be in my Shamrock Rovers home jersey.

Why? If all othe EL fans adopted the same attitude we'd have a multitude of colours. Would you wear an Irish jersy to a ROvers game?:rolleyes:

Strangily enough the Rovers jersey is green and white. Don't think Shels' red jersey, Bohs black and red etc. would work now would it? Bray fans are allowed wear green by the fashion police.

My flag will be there (Shamrock Rovers Tricolour to match my jersey!). The Stuttgart stadium with the running track isn't a great for flags but the Irish section is at least facing the cameras.

Thats right they do. They buy a lot of end of line/overstock items from sportswear companies at discount. nothing wrong with them in the slightest and the consumer benefits from their buying power. Had Celtic last year for €15!

Lads, where's this Heatons shop...................short of cash after paying for Stuttgart tickets :( so it would be great to save a few bob on a jersey which I'll probably swap with some dude out there:D
Great idea. But useless unless everybody else isn't getting the message. Perhaps a word with some of the meeja?

No need to contact them. I'm sure after reading this thread someone in

Believe it or not this was reported in today's Star. They quoted the first couple of posts in this thread. For anybody trying to find it the article isn't in the sports section. As far as I remember it's in the first 10 or so pages.

Fair play to ye Billy Scanlan for getting the message out to the Green Army who don't visit foot.ie.
With all of us wearing green it i'll give the lads a lift to see that we're not giving up on them.

Yeah, i heard that last night. I wonder will they have a follow up today/tomorrow
telling people it's Ok to wear Limerick, London and West Belfast GAA shirts seeing
as they're mentioned here now :p
Actually, depending on how much they follow this site I wonder will they have an
"Exclusuve : Glenda Gilson In Not Great Looking Shocker" headline soon :)
On the Heatons locations, for anyone outside the big schmoke ... theres one in
Roscommon town and also in Cavan, on the Dublin Rd.

how about leaving the pub a little earlier for this one and making sure the lads walk out to a sea of green for the warm up?
munster rugby fans make sure they are there for the warm up and is very impressive for the lads to come out to a huge roar 30 mins before the game

Seeing as how the Star have got a fair few articles from foot.ie over the last couple of weeks, maybe they could give out green t shirts,hats,scarfs etc in the airport next Thursday and Friday.Eircom did something similar for the Holland game a couple of years ago.

I think it was done for the Cyprus game as well. That'd be Savage if they did but they'd have to extend it to Saturday morning for the people like myself going at that time..

I have a team full of green jerseys(bringing about 4)so i am not looking for a freebie,but there will always be a few who will not have the jersey and as i said earlier "The Star" have got enough column inches from foot.ie to justify giving out a few thousand freebies

Slightly off topic, but i remember chat on this board a few years ago about releasing loads of green balloons at one of the away games, could've been Paris. Did this ever happen in the end or was it even attempted??

Still plenty of green shirts in Heatons in the Square yesterday. As you go in the main door turn immediately right and they are over on the wall facing you. They also have the away shirt. €24 each. Note this is the last shirt and not the new one but still a good deal.

There were a few of us on here who attempted it. On the way up to the ground we handed out loads of balloons to every ireland fan we met. Most people never bother releasing them:mad: . Tried the same in the Faroe islands, and that never really worked either.good luck if you do try it. :)
