Newcastle's 130 year commemoration gear is beautiful. Wether it falls apart or not might come into question tho.

Well its obviously going to be 2 new shirts.  Can hardly stick with umbro for the away!LOL

Why is it when a  team struggles they always have sh*t looking kits and suppliers?

We will go down a route now where we will chop and change kit suppliers over the next 5 depressing years.  It will be:


Castore
Joma
Macron
Warrior
Converse


And we will be 4th or 5th seeds where drawing away to Macedonia is seen as a good point

Yeah I think when we switched from New Balance to Umbro a few years back the Home and Away were released at the same time or at least within close proximity to each other

It might have been a case that it fell off and the player stuck it back on the wrong way around but yeah it's very shoddy

There may be a one inch strip of double sided tape included for such instances.

Umbro would just have sold the Irish licence onto another supplier

Don’t see how its strange to be honest. Its was simply the licence holder that went bust not UMBRO. As said above, UMBRO would simply have given the licence to someone else. 

The FAIs deal was with Top Lion/JACC Sports and not UMBRO, hencebwhy they could terminate the contract.

The clubs mentioned in all likelihood have just switch to the current licence holder.

This stuff has been on sale in the Elverys shops for a while so it's probably just legacy stuff.
