New shirt info

Nah, he was drafted in the late fifties. Basically the old blokes were raging because he went on the Ed Sullivan Show for the third time in a sparkly waistcoat and mascara. The previous appearance he’d more or less caused riots.

Even though they refused to show him from the waist down this time, he still gave their wives them feelings. He also insisted on singing a black spiritual song against Sullivan’s wishes. The blokes all said nah f*** this and it was announced a few days after that he’d be drafted. They sent him to West Germany for two years.
 
I’m still finding the Elvis thing strange, if the 2nd strip is the “pink slice” then we’ve definitely gone obscure.
I like it tho, better to be quirky than boring.

We’ve never done anything like this before, but it’s looking for new ways to develop links, reach new people, connect existing supporters to a product emotionally. Anybody who’s been to the match in the past 2/3 years has belted this out pre-kick off. It’s gone from a song we sang to our song.

We’ve not released an Irish version of an SAFC shirt before, or an Armed Forces themed shirt. It’s just producing something something will buy, but they’ve chose the biggest rock star ever to help them.

We haven’t exactly reinvented the wheel with this either.

There’ll definitely be inspiration taken from Bohemians.
