Or 32 red insisted on their lettering being in white. Quite like the GK kits. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,695 Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Quite funnily, serie a has just banned green kits from 2022/23 season onwards because it it blending into the pitch too much. It this catches on and becomes the standard, this season could be our last with a green kit so enjoy it! Link to post Share on other sites

Green and orange united. It's ironic that that symbol of unity would probably have to be changed if there was Irish reunification as it's now too divisive. I've always liked the harp flags. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
