Seen the new Ireland away kit in a sports store in London today. But wheres the publicity for it, didnt even know there was one out! Not even on the FAI website. Has it gone out yet in Ireland? Too much like the England jersey for anyone who hasnt seen it....
Ya, never heard anything about it coming out but I found it on this site
Anywhere else there would have been a big publicity drive to sell it but the FAI don't even bother telling anyone its available...
aye, it is too white if you know what I mean, needs some more colour about itQuote:

Funny how much fuss is made by umbro and the english FA about their shirt launches. Would still be nice to have the option on the orange blob too.
Have to say I think it's one of the nicest shirts we've ever had
Yeah I think it's nice as well.
Look on the bright side, it's not black or illuminous orange.
I agree. I like it. could be alot worse :eek: . Im going to take a wander down oxford st at lunch and see if they have it in stock.Quote:

Not overly great but I bought it anyway.
Got it, long sleeve of course, for 45euro in Lifestyle in Cavan of all places!
Didnt even know it was out but I was visiting the girlfriend and she lives
across the road from the shop and I just caught it in the corner of my eye
while passing by.
On the phone to the lads straight away, ended up having to buy 5 :p
Is it me or is the eircom logo getting bigger and bigger. Ridiculous. Other than that I like it.Quote:

For a second there I thought you said €32. I was going to have a fit considering I bought it this afternoon for €50. By the way that's the price in Champion Sports, a lot of other places were charging €55.Quote:

is that long sleeve or is there only long sleeve??
It's available in both long and short sleeves and seem to cost the same.Quote:

Hell no ...our shirts are too often ruined by un-neccessary fannying around with logos motifs and colours. Still would rather we had less navy and more orange.Quote:

Btw is it just me or is that ****ing eircom logo bigger than ever? A disgrace it is.
It is a disgrace and it's disgusting looking.Quote:

I think the FAI should seek a compromise from eircom.
Put a smaller logo on the sleeve or the collar but not the front.
I think the shirt looks class with number on the front but corporate greed denies us that choice. :mad:
Why should they when everyone goes out and buys them anyway? Not for me though, havent bought an "official" replica in years because of the Eircom logo.Quote:

Worls Cup USA '94, white shirt was good, with vertical stripes, good for andy reid, vertical stripes have a slimming effect ;) Modern version of that would be nice. Anyway, I hate seeing Ireland play in white, we hardly ever win when we wear white :o
:eek: NO WAY!!
Agree with you there Lionel, scary indeed....
Edwin Van Der Sar and the ball bouncin' 'round the back of his net last summer beg to differ with you on that KT ... likewise NI in Belfast 94. ;) :cool:Quote:

It's a class jersey on, bought the long sleeve. Will be a nightmare to keep clean though, especially when in a group of Guinness drinkers :D
I don't know about ye, but the eircom logo on my jersey is the same size as it is on the home jersey. It's actually smaller than the logo on the last away jersey.
the eircom logo doesnt look too bad on the white away jersey and goalie jersey, atleast its orange and not blue and red!!!!Quote:

Great shirt!
I'll surely buy it when I'm there on August to watch us play against italy! :p ;)
Maybe orange could be better than that dark blue or black, you know I'd have prefer it.. But black maybe it's a reprise from our logo :rolleyes:
Anyway, really a great jersey! :)
2 incidents out of how many! ? :rolleyes: :DQuote:

To be fair to our northern cousins -the rot had truly set in with their squad which was then decimated by injuries and which was managed by Brian Hamilton -who while being a nice guy has managed to get relegated four times I believe at club level and who got the job for purely sentimental reasons IMO.
They played Paul Kee -a coalman form Ards in goals.
The joke still goes that after the match he sat down in the dressing room and went to put his head in his hands and missed. :D
Fair shout...your right it was the back end of 94....November 11th in fact! Wasn't too keen on that shirt myself but we did indeed hammer them in it..
