QuoteI still love the 88-90 era crest. Why couldn't the FAI have licensed that?
The new one has been a jinx.
I really like that one, brings back good memories of the West Germany shirt from 88-90. My first international as an attendee was the friendly against them.Originally Posted by Stuttgart88

Agreed, or even the 'rugby' logo. Had a few of those shirts, besides historical significance, they were truly naff.
You'd think the FAI would have updated the official store advert on their website seeing as we've had two new home jerseys since this one...
I don't even think the store is there anymore. Well it wasn't in March.You'd think the FAI would have updated the official store advert on their website seeing as we've had two new home jerseys since this one...
Favourite shirts ever are WC90, ECQ96 (First Umbro kit, Dougal one, own) and the one we had before the Euros (own, no sponsor).

Too much green in this outfit, the colour is fine but the green shorts are overkill. Maybe it's some experiment in stealth.
The 3 logo doesn't make it onto the pitch, therefore it doesn't threaten my visual experience.
Likes: not fussy, no go faster stripes, no "trim" ar anything else to make it appeal to the, um, "clubwear" sector.
dislikes: by accident or design (I susect an accident rationalised after the fact) the green shorts are indeed a different tone to the shirt. The shorts tone is better in my opinion. Make the whole thing the tone of the shorts. It's a warmer green.
The neck and collar is a bit between-the-wars as well. What have they against simple round necks? In fairness I'm unlikely to buy one anyway with that great big vulgar '3' on it.
" I wish to God that someone would be able to block out the voices in my head for five minutes, the voices that scream, over and over again: "Why do they come to me to die?"
Absolutely agree. Reminds me of World Cup 2002 when Shay Given was wearing a black jersey and navy shorts. Makes us look amateurish

This was my favourite kit by a long way over the last number of years Picture 1.jpg

Cracking shirt. I have it without a sponsor. It's one of my pride and joys.

This came round in an e-mail from the FAI:
You are Sean St Ledger and I claim my five pounds.
I like the use of the old (2000-2009) Umbro logo. Impressive stuff. I noted that the FAI have it on their website too. Amateur hour.
You have finally figured out who I am.
But, Who's the doc?

Ciaran Clark?
Oh when men were men and such things didn't matter!
Put Johnny in green shorts and see how he'd feel.

And Bonnie what's wrong with green shorts (or dresses)!

Discussions on the merits of the shirt are inversely proportioned to the merits of the team.
Really like that kit Giles is wearing

What about the McAteer kung-fu away shirt:
Certainly the most unique shirt I can remember.
