NEW Away Kit from Umbro

Well, even though we just got a new white kit from Umbro, apparently we are getting another one for the 11/12 remaining qualifiers?  some pictures for you guys here:

Yes, it is black.  I do not mind the change, as most Irish away jerseys were white.  I like the idea behind it of switching it up and whatnot, but the way it was executed is kind of… meh.  I don’t like the green stripe across the chest and sleeves, as it looks more like a regular old shirt that I got at JCPenney rather than a kit.  Plus, I know it gets them more money, BUT THE 3 NEEDS TO GO. ASAP.  I want to be able to buy an Ireland jersey and put the number there, not just on the back.  If anything, put the 3 on the sleeve like other teams do.  Or if other teams don’t do that, then I suggest you start something new.

Oh well, at least the track jacket looks pretty decent:

I may change my opinion upon seeing it in person and on the players and such, BUT WHAT DO YOU PEOPLE THINK??  Yay? Nay? Okay? No way? Jose?
