QuoteThe simpler the shirt the better - that one looks cool no doubt it will be ruined by a big orange eircom Logo.
I read an interview with John Courtney about umbro Ireland. He mentions that the next Ireland kit will have the tailored style like Man Citeh and Ingerland. I made a mock up based on the Man City Kit. I think a tailored kit would look great if it didn't have eircom plastered on the front. If they had any sense they should release a special World Cup edition like what the IRFU did for Ireland 2 years ago. Obviously they need to qualify first but i've no doubt that they will....

That top is ruined by the fancy new age badge...bring back the 80s/90s FAI badge!!!Originally Posted by CJTheGull
I love your no frills design CF and I'd be especially interested in a long sleeve version with white cuffs.
But the number crunchers in the FAI are going to tell you your design lacks the neccessary dynamism (go-faster stripes), intricasy (fannying around with pattern and colour) and "street nous" (chavtasticness) to persuade enough scobes to forego their chelsea/manu 3rd strips in favour of their own country.

Good mock-up. I reckon that's what its pretty much going to look like. I really hate the new FAI logo though, its not going to work with an old school design like that.
'Fascists dress in black and go round telling people what to do, where as priests.....'
nice work but weres the go faster stripe?
This is the current badge
That kit would look the business with the old logo.
Agreed, I refuse to buy an Ireland shirt because of that (any) daft corporate logo. Are the FAI the only association that have agreed to this ridiculous sponsorship deal?
Am I the only one that thinks that look horrible? If your going to go retro then go retro
This old norn iron jersey isnt bad either
This is retro. Don't think Umbro would go near it though.

I loved that jersey, screams Liam Brady big hair do.
They did something similar with the Norn Iron '82 away shirt which looked prittty, prittttty good. Obviously they wouldn't recreate the three stripes. Though that has never stopped O'Neills.

Don't get carried away here lads. We haven't qualified for anything yet. I don't like threads like this.
Maybe have one shirt for the group stages and then one for the final?
and another for our game versus "the rest of the world" after.Maybe have one shirt for the group stages and then one for the final?
(does anyone remember that or is it just a figment of my weed addled imagination)
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
Am I the only one who likes busy jerseys? USA '94 ahem

For colour and pure madness, you couldnt beat the orange worn, as worn in Macedonia.
Ib was going to say the same. Threads like this infuriate me. We're nowhere near qualifying for anything.
