What will the book contain?

Will it just be pictures of Jerseys or will it contain stories in regards to them?

It will mainly be images based so we start with jack Charltons first game as manager v Wales in 1986 and this was also Adidas first time as official kit supplier to the FAI.Images of Irish captain Liam Bradys shirt from the game will be interspersed with live action shots from the game with some commentary about the kit/style/design etc.

It is more of a nostalgic trip down memory lane rather than an in depth discussion on fabrics/textile production etc.

Very honoured to announce that Irelands record appearances holder who also doubles as our all time leading goal scorer,Mr Robbie Keane has agreed to write the forward to "40 Shades of Green".

I know Jimmy Nolan,James father was instrumental in getting Robbie in board.Robbie has been hugely supportive of the Nolans since 2012 so I just want to put on record our appreciation for Robbies support with this project. #YBIG
