Foot.ie decides - Ireland's best away kit

[Eminence Grise]

2005 and 1990.

[sadloserkid]

The 1990 one is better.

[backstothewall]

I was going to say current kit. Just because I thought someone should. But Razor's Left Peg has already done that.

So 1990.

A great tussle in the first match, but it's the 2005 shirt that pulls away in the second half to win 9-5 and be our first quarter-finalist.

I could put Italia 90 v child of Italia out of its misery, but I'll play by the rules and keep it open until the evening.

In the meantime though, paging CraftyToePoke to the thread as the reprieved Euro 2012 kit makes its entrance. And again it's drawn a finals kit, this time the Euro 2016 kit.

Is there a way of resizing images btw so it doesn't appear that I'm blatantly encouraging votes for 2016 (which I'm not!)?

[passinginterest]

Tempted to abstain because I don't like either of them. 2016 maybe just edges it (because of the massive picture! Maybe.).

1990 and 2016

2016. 2012 puts me in mind of dungarees with one of the straps undone.

Yeah. It takes a minute, but it's not too bad.

Resize test:


That seems to have worked.

Save the image to your computer. Resize it in MS Paint or another tool. Save. Upload the resized image on imgur. Use the imgur version in your post.

2012 easily enough for me. It was supposed to make my 'retrieve list' actually, not sure what happened there.
Much better memories of the 2016 kit of course.

2016

[sadloserkid]

2012 for me too. I'm appalled at (and marking the card of) all of you who vote differently. Though I enjoyed the dungarees quip.

2016.

Makes sense that the Limerick skids would like the half-strapped dungaree look.

I hate Dexy's Midnight Runners though. 'Come On Eileen' might be the worst rock song ever written, beyond dislikable and easy to despise - the Izzy Akinade of melody.

[pineapple stu]

Harsh!

I remember singing a version of it at UCD games. This was when we were in the Premier and ye were in the First, so ye wouldn't have been there to have yere ears offended

Come on...College...too loo rye ay...come on College...too loo rye ay

You're not helping me out here with the two images Mr Pineapple Sir, an iconic high of the sides history Vs three lads wishing they were anywhere else.

2012 please. That thing oozes pure magnificence.

[pineapple stu]

Have to be honest here and say I thought the Italy game was the only time we wore it, and that was 90 minutes of our players wishing they were somewhere else.

But it seems we did wear it in the friendlies either side of Euro 2012, against Hungary and Serbia. 0-0 draws so mundane I had forgotten about them entirely. (Possibly travelling the world at the time didn't help)

I'll split with you - I prefer the 2016 kit because I think 2012 is too dark a shade of green; the same problem we saw in the home kit comp. But I won't vote. How's that?

[backstothewall]

2012.

[CraftyToePoke]

But I won't vote. How's that?

As much as I would like to say no no, you vote away my good man, I'm going to go along with that & good man

[Fixer82]

Amazed at the disdain for 2016 which was one of our finest away kits in years in my opinion.
The green hoops were different and classy

2012 is just a white shirt with a green stripe running down the left tit.
