    3rd Kit?

    FAI trying to get more money out of us?

    I know Scotland are doing well. But are we trying to become them?? At least those of an Ulster Scots identity will like it!

    There must be thousands of them in some warehouse hence the grey kit being worn to try and boost sales.

    Agreed.

    Better than the orange one back in the mid-nineties. At least it's a bit of a change from the direct swap.

    I'm not too keen on the third kit, especially when the team is instructed to wear it for no other reason than to make money for the FAI.

    England brought out a grey strip for Euro96 and it became very very popular because it looked good with a pair of jeans.

    Umbro/FAI looking to cash in.

    However, ours is going to have a dirty big orange blob on the front.

    Orange one was terrible, but a warehouse was knocked off by people who are probably in the NI assembly by now, so everyone in Belfast had one.

    I quite liked the one today. Better than any white away strip we have ever had.

    I quite like the grey, think it goes very well with the logo, etc - wear the training top more often than any of the "real" shirts these days!

    Our green kit very rarely clashes with other countries'. For 4 of our 6 away games, we have changed colours. You should wear your home gear on away trips, unless required to change it for clash reasons.

    Horrible shirt. Not sure of the merit of a third strip for an international team anyway but it strikes me as simple enough logic that ours should be orange if we have one.

    I saw it on sale today in champion sports in the square Tallaght behind some of the training jersies. Never bothered checking the price though.

    The grey reflects the colour of the dark clouds gathering over Irish football at the moment.


    Maybe.
