Far too plain for me. On the opposite end of the spectrum to the Harps home jersey this year which had far too much going on on it :D
most leagues wouldn't allow a change kit that will presumably look identical to the home kit to people who are colour-blind
That doesn't make sense surely. Isn't colour blindness about confusing red and green anyway ?Quote:

There is blue-green colour blindness as well, although it's quite rare. Red-green is the most common alrightQuote:

not wild about the jersey .
I like that 3rd Harps top. I hope the 3rd kit due to be launched by Dundalk is along those lines and with little fuss.Quote:

As much as it sounds like a 1st of April thing, in a few years Ireland V Wales in rugby probably wont be played in green and red shirts - colours would clash like this for red/green colour blindness.https://static01.nyt.com/images/2015...a&k=ZQJBKqZ0VN
(silly info, the Londoner picked that picked red and green for stop and go for traffic lights caused plenty of unintentional grief for down the line....and the first example used blew up killing a traffic copper too. and then there is Tipperary Hill and the upside down ones...major political incident on Anglo-Irish stuff in the US).
No red diesel but a green one and poitin officer will hopefully be in place before the season starts.
There is no pleasing some folkQuote:

Very fitting for Bohs to include a 'Whipping Boys' song title on next seasons jersey, in tribute to their decade of trophyless years
In normal English doesnt that actually mean 'we need everybody else'?
*maybe 'we need somebody else' is more accurate and does probably fit better!
Love Whipping Boy. A bit weird for Bohs to be picking a song about domestic abuse though, no?
It's not a climate officer they require it's an education officer.
Fu**in cretins!!🤡🤡.
007,licence to kill ambition.
Nice jersey, I give it 8 out of 10.
It’s awful
Jaysus that Bohs shirt is horrendous. Why do people have to try and be so clever these days and therefore make a mess of things. They should stick to the traditional black & red stripes and just play around with it year on year. It’s like the time we moved to a pure red shirt & sleeves, I hated it.
Just too many shirts are released these days so making them new and unique is a tough job. Has resulted in lots of clubs breaking away from their traditional kits, Barca, Juve and now Bohs off the top of my head. That jersey is fine as a third kit.Quote:

Ditto, that all red effort from Pats was awful. Looked liked a Shels shirt:eek:Quote:

I'm a stickler for tradition so i really don't like that Bohs jersey , for me Bohs are black and red stripes just like Rovers are Green and white hoops.
Rovers are having a huge sale in the shop of the current home jersey so I'm assuming new one coming, i wont be happy if they go down this Bohs trendy route.
Derry’s away no longer on O’Neills as they put it up q day early mistakenly. A shame because the club had done very well to prevent any significant leaks and it’s a nice top, they have tried something different and done it well so fair play.
Images are widely available now anyway of screengrabs from O’Neills online shop so cat is out of the bag.
I'm red/ green colour blind. It's mainly between shades of reds and greens that I don't see the difference, and then Dark Red v Dark Brown v Dark Green. Red v Green on a pitch I don't recall an issue, either between teams or the team in green and the pitch!Quote:

Actually, depending on the set of balls, snooker was one of the places I had an issue with Green v Brown, and sometimes Brown v Red.Quote:

As obvious as it is i'd not though of snooker as problematic. Also with mention of red lenses helping, it would make more sense for me now that World Rugby and and sports that follow dont restrict the use of certain colours - surely apps/filters on various devices etc could be developed if not done already, that would sort the issue for this cohort of tv audiences without mandating a change to playing colours used in jersies. At live events I dunno, can red contact lenses be used Macy, though possibly issue with the varying degrees of the condition and the change of other colours then? (thanks for that nugget of info though - maybe smart contact lenses that can adjust for normal colour perception and red/green preception should be patented!!).Quote:

To be fair, most of Bohs recent jerseys have been a nice kit (even if I hate them). But that yoke is horrendous.
derry away is nice
Agree that's a good shirt for what are always tricky colours to work with.Quote:

Controversial pattern. Looks a bit like something O'Neills would do.Quote:
