Sinner-to-Saint Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 1 hour ago, GiGi said: Umbro stating they won't promote it says it all. Linfield probably chose the colour scheme with Umbro either not knowing or caring about what it represents. Still they'll be happy to take the money I assume. Will it sell well, though? I think it has the potential to become a top seller with supporters of Rangers, Chelsea and possibly other clubs buying it, too. So perhaps it's a calculated decision based on the club's concerns about the current financial situation. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacGafraidh Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 It’s not utterly surprising but Celtic have had Umbro kits that were designed to look like an Irish Tricolour from the back. It will be a great seller in Belfast, Lanarkshire & Ayrshire 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry Ferguson's Hat Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 The Irish tri-colour is an inclusive flag, given that the orange is to represent Protestantism. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do fear that the link being brought to light may increase sales. 1 hour ago, Gerald Elbowdent said: Hardly the same is it. For all that it might be cringe "MUH HERRITAGE"ism from Celtic, I'm pretty certain the Irish tricolour isn't the representative flag of a terrorist paramilitary group. I don’t disagree with you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umbro gives clubs a lot of freedom to design their own kits, more than most other kit suppliers so this kit will purely have been Linfield's choice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although certain sections tried to re-name the orange as gold. I'm not sure people who like football kits would buy that Linfield one even without the sectarianism, though, the colours are godawful. If you want a sash shirt, Peru/River Plate is the way to go. (Or the Blues 140th anniversary shirt.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have tried, but orange - and the reason for it - is enshrined in the Irish Constitution. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's purple and green if that makes it any better. For what it's worth I actually like it. As long as they don't do a full throwback and have the opposing half shorts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluearmyfaction Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 There was a vogue for that in Argentina in the sixties. Is that the shirt though or some sort of leisure product? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A series of leisurewear by Errea for their English customer teams, all based on their historic kits except for MK Dons due to obvious reasons. Standard de Liege Standard Luik home kit.
