its gone!
it was there 10 mins ago,
theirs a post in the 'club kits next season' thread on the eircom league section of this forum that says it too.
drogs were there aswell they have been removed....strange!
the 2 jako teams! maybe its because they're still jako, and just in talks to be with umbro or something, they cant very well be up on the umbro site if there still technically with jako.
i did hear there was a row/something of that sort with jako
that only leaves harps,if they change their kit something has happened...
maybe jako want out of the eircom league?
i think harps were a different company last season...?
i thought nike were buying umbro?!
my mistake!
im sure the 2 rte fellas said their kits were supplied by jako juring the harps - athlone game..then again thats rte!

Adidas own Reebok now and yet you still see Reebok around, don't you?
they used PF sports last season just gone by, just checked their website. they were jako the season before last alright
oops i totally misread a previous post and thougt that umbro were taking over jako, and nike might not want to take over jako if they bought umbro(im certain this won't make sense to anybody except myself!)
I was told tere is a new rule coming in were all FAI teams juinor intermediate and senior,s will have to were Umbro kits in the next 2 years.plus use umbro footballs.Its to do with the sponsorship deal that they have with the Fai!
class....if they're paying for it all
At the moment this only concerns teams in the Connaught Cup, including underage, which is now sponsored by Umbro. Teams must play with Umbro footballs and failure to do so incurs a €100 fine. The fine will be used to purchase footballs for the offending club. Didnt hear anything about the kit rule though
And the juinor cup ask any local ref they were told a few weeks ago at tere weekly meeting thats the road the FAI are going to take!
i hope we have to wear umbro kits!!! i know we got an umbro ball given to us for free a few weeks ago, not sure if this is anything to do with it though!?
I seriously doubt we're moving to an Umbro kit unless the league has done a huge deal for Umbro to do all the kits - similar deals exist in MLS and Austrailia. I personally think one manufacturer paying a huge sum that get's divided out to clubs,plus a % of sales per club would be a good thing for rovers. Rovers make diddly squat with their current set-up and considering the amount of rovers jerseys around it should be a key money maker for the club. but it isnt.
"Excuses are the nails used to build a house of failure"
we were talking about junior clubs being changed to umbro, not rovers
on that note, anyone know what percentage the club get from shirt sales?
i think we get more if people buy the shirt in the shop in the showgrounds, and not in a different shop....still doubt we make much on shirt sales
just to mention something, barton smiths sell finn harps jerseys, not a rovers one in sight
