On this day in our international football history the Irish team known then as the Football Association of Irish Free State (FAIFS) hosted Italy in Lansdowne Road in the 1st official international match organised by what is today known as the FAI.

The Italian side would give the fascist salute on the field during their anthem. The captain of the Irish team in his 2nd and final international appearence was a young man from Cork called Frank Brady. Frank is the great uncle of Ireland legend Liam Brady.

"Green, White & Orange" will tell the story of the Ireland team and its famous shirt from 1921-2021.

not to burst your bubble, but that Italy match is reported in most other places as being on the 23rd of April 1927, so not quite on this day..

The final photography shoot for the "Green, White, Orange" book was completed yesterday. Incredible Irish items from the FAIFS in 1924 right the way up to Gavin Bazunu debut Ireland shirt v Luxembourg in 2021 were included. One of the oldest Ireland goalkeepers shirts still in existence from 1936 along with 80 other rare and unique exhibits will all feature in the book and in the "James Nolan Collection" museum archive which will be fully updated ahead of the start of the Centenary of the FAI beginning in June.

The book now moves to design stages with the front cover next to be decided and hopefully by mid May I should be in a position to release some advance images of how it is shaping up.

There will be over 300 unique items of our international football history from 1921-2021 that will feature and will touch on every moment from our international story.

I never knew Fozzie Bear got an Ireland cap. 

I should add the obvious and say we have had a few muppets in goal since then.

Delighted to say that my book called "Green White Orange" has been made available for pre order today to celebrate the start of the Centenary Year of the FAI.

The pre order link is available on the home page of the irelandsoccershirts.com website and the book will be dispatched on the 31st September 2021.


The book like the museum us dedicated to the memory of James Nolan and I'm happy to say the "James Nolan Collection" archive is now live and fully updated with all our history from 1921-2021. 💚

I want to thank everyone for their support over the last 19 years and it's a brilliant way to hang up my jersey for the last time.

Bit pricey at 50. 

Fair enough you'll say associated costs and your not doing it for profit, but I don't care really. I just think its too pricey for something Ill look at when I buy and will then gather dust like the last one.

Best of luck but not for me unfortunately.

Your post sounds like I asked you personally to buy it Foggy!

Like any product its not just designed with you persoanlly in mind although id hope it might appeal to you also as you post on an irish football fan website. If its not for you then it might be a nice gift for a friends birthday or someone living overseas who you have not seen in 18 months because of the pandemic or a kris kindle gift at Christmas for a family member who is an Irish fan or maybe a younger niece/nephew/godchild who doesnt know our story or maybe for an older family member who went to Ireland games in the 1960s/70s to allow them to recall their favourite game/player/result at Dalymount Park or for someone who was in Stuttgart or Genoa or Giants Stadium to relive those great memories or maybe it will spark those memories of penalty loss in Slovakia or the Henry handball in Paris or being knocked out by Spain on 2002. Maybe you will remember who you were with watching a particular match or who you were going out with or the craic you had or doing your Leaving exams getting the result of a game from a teacher or just that unreal feeling the country experienced around the Jack Charlton era from 1988 to 1994. Real historic moments in not just Irish sporting history but that of the nation.


The book is really unique and I cant imagine anyone will ever release a book on our Centenary kit history in our Centenary year ever again! It will contain over 270 action shots from Ireland games from 1924 to 2021 along with 300 unique and rare exhibits from our senior international football history that will tell the our complete story from 1921-2021 covering over 590 international games and honour the 510 players who have worn our shirt like Alan McLoughlin who recently passed away with his boots he scored THAT goal v Northern Ireland in 1993 included in the publication.

Its going to be a large coffee table sized book measuring 12" x 10" with a fantastic finish and dont be worried about dust Foggy as the cover is a dust jacket so dust wont be an issue!

Thanks Donegalman. The book is 19 years in the making and marks the end of my Irish football museum project that started in 2002.
