Foot.ie decides - Ireland's best home kit

**Kingdom** · 01/12/2020, 8:32 AM

86-87 & 78-83

Also, I feel really bad, as I'd have voted for 06-08 over the 85-86 which would have tied the tie I think. Oops.

Cool. I'll gather them together and probably run it in March, to coincide with the World Cup triple-header games.

Close call, I'm not fully convinced about the sweet wrapper sashing on the 16 jersey, but the Brady jersey is showing it's age a bit with the sloppy fit. I think I'll just about go for 2016.

I like the 2016 kit. The colours on the 88 kit look a bit Kerry GAA to me.

78 to 83 thanks. two good kits though

Thanks!

2016 kit for me.

7-5 the result there in favour of the Brady kit. That was a lot closer than I thought it would be to be honest.

The last quarter-final is up now. I'll leave these run till tomorrow, then the semis will be Thurs/Fri, and Mon/Tues will be the 3rd/4th place play-off and the final.

First up, Steve Finnan sports the 2000/01 WC qualifying kit. It lost in the first round to the Euro 88 kit (10-3), but was reprieved and then beat the USA 94 kit on a tie-break after a 4-4 draw.

And against it, a kit which made getting to the quarters without winning a single match so fashionable in the first place - it's the Italia 90 kit (also used in qualifying for Euro 92). It whitewashed the 2017-18 kit 12-0 in the first round and thumped the 2001-03 kit 7-3 in the second round to make it here.

78-83

If the orange on the Euro2016 kit wasn't of the dayglo variety it was in with a shout. That being said, I'm not a fan of the yellowy orange that we had in the early days either.

This is a case of the least worst winning out cos we all know how much appearing to be from Kerry doesn't agree with me.

**BonnieShels** · 01/12/2020, 6:06 PM

I have to plump for the Italia 90 kit. It's just bloody perfect in every goddamn way for a soccer shirt. No contest for me.

**Razors left peg** · 01/12/2020, 6:18 PM

2016 and Italia 90, easy decisions

**jbyrne** · 01/12/2020, 6:43 PM

wc 90

**passinginterest** · 01/12/2020, 7:43 PM

Italia 90 without a shadow of a doubt.

**the 12 th man** · 01/12/2020, 8:08 PM

Italia 90 for me,that collar on Steve Finnan one is moldy.

**backstothewall** · 01/12/2020, 10:10 PM

1990 & 2016.

**Fixer82** · 01/12/2020, 10:24 PM

Italia 90

**Snoop Drog** · 02/12/2020, 5:02 AM

+1 for 90

**pineapple stu** · 02/12/2020, 6:51 AM

Another really tight result there, but the 2016 kit scrapes through 5-4 with the last vote of the tie. Not all that impressed with the anti-Kerry bias on here, but as an impartial vote-counter in this, all I can do is give ye lot the frowning of a lifetime...

The Italia 90 jersey's winning margin will be confirmed later on today, and then the semis will get underway tomorrow!
