its basically a copy of the 1992 northern ireland kit! Bit of a sore subject!!0 -
Shame that they had a sponsor, especially one which they can't pronounce properly.0

in fairness neither can alot of english people...alot of the time "Three" becomes "Free"0

It's ideal if you're a left back though.0 -

FAI are desperate for a quickbook whenever possible, would have thought that there would be regulations of somekind to prevent sponsors on the front. Can't remember the last time we had a decent home kit.0 -
It's poppies you aren't allowed to display0

Hang on, international shirts aren't allowed sponsors... why has this got one!?

Cause it not the shirt that the players wear, it's a replica shirt to sell to the public.

Then it's not a replica, is it?
I've never heard of a replica shirt having a sponsor that the real shirt doesn't have! I hope this isn't a growing trend!?0 -

It's been the case for ages.

Have noticed a few sites now offering shirts without the sponsor on. Personally, that would be great for me with the Irish top as I have a long-running dispute with those lovely people from "3" and wouldn't want any association with them at all.
As for the kit...pretty awful and much prefer the matchday/media top, which brings back a few memories of Italia 90

I had an Italia 90 kit when i was like 5 years old, great kit. Better memories.

I'm a wee bit older sibs...took a while to get the Guinness out of the shirt after the O'Leary penalty against Romania!! ;-)0

It was my earliest memory of an Irish game, although I can only really remember Bonner saving the penalty.0

International teams are allowed sponsor on their shirt for exhibition or friendly games (including the competition with Wales, NI & Scotland), they arne't allowed to wear sponsors in tournament games (including qualifiers). The FA have decided that they aren't going to include sponsors on the teams shirts, I think this comes down to 1) tradition 2) we qualifer for most major tournaments. You'll notice that the teams that have sponsors on their kits don't tend to qualify for international competitions all that often. I have a very old Ireland shirt with Eircom on it so it isn't a new development.0

Oh that helps.Then it's not a replica, is it?

That makes a lot more sense! Now you mention Eircom I can picture that shirt.0
