#26 in the @kitbliss.co.nz 100 Greatest Templates, the Adidas Golpe. Alternate away kits in styles from the era. Keef looks a bit chilly though! www.kitbliss.co.nz/100gfst/026-...

Northern Ireland's All-Time English Premier League XI #GAWA #NornIron #EPL youtu.be/FgTnmm6aIRc

Happy Christmas everyone!

#27 in the KitBliss 100 Greatest Templates. West Germany wore it while winning the 1990 World Cup, I'm sure #NornIron would've done likewise if issued this back in 1988! Presented in traditional #GAWA colour options, plus an alternative "Ulster Banner" coloured version.

#28 in the #KitBliss Greatest Templates series - The Umbro Nimbus. Remembered as Villa's kit during their 92/93 title charge, and also Zola et al at Parma, the #NornIron away in blue nods to the early 1900s #IrishFA kits, though we never had a yoke!

The #Spurs / #NornIron All-Time XI #GAWA #THFC youtu.be/OhXmTndUyUQ

#KitBliss Greatest Templates #29, the Puma King. Probably most familiar as Spurs' kit, so we've added a bit of green to repurpose that as #NornIron's away. For the home we go green heavy, as the #GAWA should! www.kitbliss.co.nz/100gfst/029-...

#30 in the KitBliss Greatest Templates, the Adidas Real II. A bit of desperate defending from Mark Williams and Peter Kennedy in an outwardly stylish and simple jersey with a built-in undershirt. #GAWA #NornIron

The Kitbliss Greatest Templates #31 the Adidas Marseille. USSR's kit at Italia 90, but how about if it was #NornIron facing Argentina, Stevie McBride would've given them a quare chasing! The #GAWA in era appropriate colours.

#32 in the @kitbliss.co.nz Greatest Templates, the Adidas Prestige. Perhaps most famous as Argentina's WC98 away jersey, here we can see how Phil Mulryne would've looked captaining #NornIron's U21s to to the 2000 Euros with alternatives in era-appropriate colours. #GAWA

"Gentleman Jim McCarthy" by Neil Thompson. I'm chuffed to have played a small part in the research for this book, charting the career of one of the outstanding amateur players of the pre-war years and captain of Ireland's Amateur team #GAWA #NornIron Please share! www.balboapress.com/en-gb/bookst...

Best wishes from #NornIron to #MorecambeFC as they continue their fight for survival

In the latest NIFG video we chart those players who missed out on joining the 50 Cap Club #NornIron #GAWA youtu.be/hUQ2wH7fdng

#33 in the Kit Bliss 100 Greatest Templates. Most familiar as being worn by France and Rangers. Simple re-colour for the #GAWA home with IFA logo shadow. For the away there's a more-modern-retro take on kit releases. Inspired by the lace-up collar we've gone St Patrick's blue with an old-style badge

#NornIron's Greatest Team as voted for by visitors to NIFG back in 2013! #GAWA youtu.be/NDNBOjiyOXs?...

#34 in the @kitbliss.co.nz 100 Greatest Templates series, the Adidas Santos. Not worn by British teams, but a familiar sight on the international stage - #NornIron don't look out of place in pin-striped Adidas in the early 80s. www.kitbliss.co.nz/100gfst/034-...

So, that's a wrap for the Premier League season. Three players: a champion, an FA Cup winner (as an unused sub) and a Europa League runner-up, but that's the equal fewest players #NornIron have had in the English top tier since 92/93, and their 49 appearances the 2nd least!

#35 in the @kitbliss.co.nz Greatest Templates series - the Adidas Condivo 20. Another #NornIron had (which is presented in white here) along with an imagined green home and aqua third (based on our previous away colours). The shoulder flashes take us back to the early 90s Equipment era #GAWA

As some of you may be aware, John Devlin @truecolours.bsky.social had major surgery recently and has been very unwell. As he now begins his recovery, I've decided to create a 1974 World Cup Kits digital poster that you can buy to help raise funds for his medical costs and reduced earnings. [🧵 1/2]

I'll try to get to grips with posting here along with back on Twitter. I'm not good with new tech! Anyway, #NornIron's kit combos March 2024 - March 2025. #GAWA all the way!

Michael Hughes and Neil Lennon had played senior Irish League football before joining Manchester City to win the big honours!

Grok has decided that this will be the next #NornIron kit 🤪

#36 in the @KitblissNZ Greatest Templates, the Kappa KOMBAT I. Whilst this shirt earned iconic status hugging the Romanic figure of the likes of Francesco Totti at Euro2000, I fear that due to too many Findus Crispy Pancakes it wouldn't have flattered #NornIron's Gerry Taggart!

Think we're only missing one of these combos?

#NornIron got some new keeper kits, the Adidas Tiro 25. We've seen the Grey Five and Shock Red, but there's also available in Blue Burst, Pulse Yellow, Glory Mint, Crew Orange and True Pink.

Man City's 1985 summer signings. Sammy McIlroy's first meeting with his future assistant as #NornIron manager, Mark Lillis?

Jeff Whitley, #NornIron 1-1 Denmark, 2000

A chastening evening for #NornIron in Stockholm. The starting XI was our 3rd youngest ever, or the 7th youngest ever to be on field since WW2.

I wonder do these young lads realise how significant their kick-about venue is? (approximately)

Isaac Price is proving to be one of #NornIron's most effective ever goalscorers, his goals per game ratio is just shy of David Healy's! #GAWA

A reminder of the time that Tommy Wright and Jim Magilton played for the English against the Italians back in 1992!

Name the stars of 58!

Jamie Donley to join an illustrious list of #LilyWhites for the #GAWA

Does anyone know anything about this cancelled match against Spain that's listed in this Billy "Minto" Murray profile from Score Magazine. (

#NUFC in the #EFLCup Final today. Can they break their 56 year trophy drought? How would this #NornIron squad fare on a day like today? #GAWA

The reports of the demise of Bailey Peacock's #NornIron career may be greatly exaggerated, but just in case here are the men who are in the mildly frustrating position of having won between 40 and 49 caps in green-and-white.

Eric Ross, in his familiar specs, signs for Newcastle in 1967.

I don't think this was 15 minutes well spent! 😅

Happy 73rd birthday to #NornIron's captain for many of the 1980s glory days, Martin O'Neill. #GAWA

Happy 81st birthday to one of #NornIron's main-men of the 1960s, Jimmy Nicholson!
