Its definitely real!
There's been a horrible mix up, I think Mr Green are after making the jersey instead of Hummel. Only reasonable explanation I can think of.
The Bohs fans are giving it absolute murder on Facebook!!!
Hard to believe that nobody involved in the design and production process took a moment along the way to say 'Wait! That looks f**king horrific!'
Someones done an unbelievably horrible photoshop job with the sponsor logo.
Either that or Mr. Green have come up with this incredible sponsor print that doesn't crease with the jersey.
The sponsor is lopsided, as is the Bohs crest.
Photoshopped it to make the jersey look a bit more like a proper green, look better?

If I were a Bohs fan (shudder..) there's no way I'd be wearing that for several reasons. They usually have decent kits to be fair to them so not sure who signed off on that one.
It's from the Hummel 2016 teamwear range. Oh well!
Dundalk CX+
Rovers. New Balance
Derry. Hummel
Harps. Legea
Longford. Macron
Pats. Umbro

Last years in brackets.
Hearing of a possible issue with Macron Ireland. Won't say too much in case it's faff.
According to the CRO Macron Teamwear Ireland ceased trading last Wednesday.
That could mean they're gone gone or it could mean they're changing name or they are being taken over. Interesting!
Well it doesn't necessarily mean that A) Macron Ireland have definitely ceased trading, just that the holding company is gone and B) Nothing stopping the club from getting Macron from another supplier. If Macron Ireland are just gone bust then the contract is terminated but if they are conducting a strategic exit there is no reason why they cant make sure that Longford and Shels get what they are due and what they have ordered for initial replica sales while making sure that Macron head office handle any requirements throughout the year.
so the new town jersey that came out over xmas I assume that will be worn for the coming season Longfordian?
No idea Marty. Ask Dodge (or someone in the club in an ideal world but..). I took it that we'll be using Legea for the upcoming season. If the players' Macron gear hadn't been delivered then the club would have to use another supplier. What they'll do about the fans who bought replicas already I don't know. Ideally they'd give at least a significant discount on any new shirt. Though the Macron ones would be collectors' items in future years!
Could be a case that Macron jersey will remain but club will use Legea as training and leisurewear supplier. Wexford done that last season with O'Neills jersey and Legea training gear.
Legea is fantastic stuff. Like everyone else, they can be a bit slow getting gear into the club shop, but top notch stuff.
Suppose that's a possibility too. It depends how many kits we managed to get from them.
Was this a club official that you heard from longfordian? I wonder is this statement as a result of the news breaking on here about it yesterday or was it planned all along? Somehow I think it's because of it been posted on here as the club would probably of tried to bury their head in the stand and hope no one would of copped the change of manufacturer!
I saw it on Twitter earlier and to be honest I'm not sure if the person who posted is officially involved or not. He's a family member of someone who certainly is.
Looked at his follow up tweets, he's not officially involved but the club have sent him to a marketing and media conference tonight on their behalf so he's as good as. Amazing that of all the people who volunteered to help out with social media over the last few seasons they chose a relative of a board member. Great to see nepotism alive and well.
That sums up the Longford Town committee as a whole! I will refuse to do anything for them next season after this ****! absolutely disgraceful.. this individual hasnt being to too many matches over the last while.. it really makes my blood boil tbh.. will work like mad to make Outspokens website to make it a success as I have being asked to come on board! the club is afraid of the competition it seems!
Don't get me wrong Marty it's great to see the club finally getting its Arse in gear but of all the people who offered to help down the years they pick a board members son who was hardly at a game last year. You can see why people get annoyed with the lack of transparency
Club just released a statement saying legea are supplying the 2016 kit. They will also exchange any of the 2016 Macron home jerseys sold to fans over Christmas. Apparently they will not exchange the away jerseys.
I'd keep the Macron one if it were me, it'll be a collectors item
I'd be the same if I had one. Maybe the club are hoping plenty are of the same mind! Though in all seriousness I doubt there were that all many sold in the week or so they were on sale before Christmas.
