Peyton
Yellow dummy, and a close call in the second tie but the Bonner beats the nips (getting close to x-rated territory on this one).
Bonner over Peyton.
Packie
Randolph
Packie
5-3 for Randolph over the dummy, so into the last 8 it goes.
Packie v Gerry open for votes, and the last of the third round ties sees the last Shay Given kit go up against the last Nicky Colgan kit

Colgan's is really a classic, solid goalkeeper's kit for me. Given's is an ugly eyesore mess rooted in insanity.
So that's one vote for Given from me please. :)
Colgan all day.
Colgan
Given for embracing the tradition of garish design.
Peyton and Colgan.
I really think we've been fortunate
and lucky compared to some other countries
mainly american with our kits.
I don't know how anyone could
give a vote to Packie's
gear in that tie when
you consider the unusual
simplicity of the peyton kit
and the unique for the time anyway
notion of putting a Republic keeper in orange
gear in that era.
given purple. colgans is just too much like a gk kit that most LSL keepers would wear
Payton and Shay, which is spectacular
Given has a jersey like a painters radio, im going with Colgan.
6-3 for Packie's 94 kit, despite a late rally for Gerry Peyton.
That just leaves Given v Colgan as the last tie open of the round, and the first of the quarter finals then will go up in the morning.
Colgan. Given's is a monstrosity of a painter's smock, much less a goalkeeper's jersey.
Heretic!
If this one goes to a tie, that Given jersey is getting my unashamed number 1 vote. Goalkeepers should be different and a little bit crazy, and the Given jersey sums that up far better than the Colgan one.
It says FAI in big friendly letters, but that's more likely to panic our defenders than the other team.Quote:

Not happy!
So we have our final eight, and the quarters will get underway tomorrow with two 80s kits, two 90s kits, one 00s kit and two 10s kits and a 20s kit.
Bonner 94, then Shay Campos
Dammit PS. Could you not have given it another hour! That Colgan one is as dull as ditchwater.Quote:

Bonner all the way!
Bonner. Looks like he's intent on stopping shots. Kelly just looks like he's on his way to stop traffic outside a school.
Bonner.
The more i see that jersey, the more I think it's my favourite (along with the Peyton orange affair).
That Bonner kit is lovely Stu! I can even overlook the collar.
Bonner.

Bonner,Kelly's looks faded.

OK - going to leave that one open till the morning, and this next battle then is open till Monday morning. It's Colgan (boooooo!!!!!!!!) against salmon Randolph.
