It is listed as a training jersey so presumably won't be match day. I don't actually like the stars to be honest so it is on my list. :)
We have some sticky gold ones we can tack on if necessary !!

Can we assume they are the same exact colour and will be equidistantly located above the crest? Be prepared to run the gauntlet of Vamos, his colour spectrometer and his ruler.

Should we have silver stars to note Celtic/Magners/Rabo league wins? Actually given the changing nature of the league and it's teams perhaps some form of rainbow star..... I'll get my coat.

Can someone explain the difference between 'technical' and 'ugly' hoodies? How can the ugly one be nicer?

I've been wondering about this for a while now, and with the exception of this one, I can't understand the description.

Ugly is a Canterbury sub-brand. Typically in more garish colours with more contrast between the detailing and the main fabric.

I think the new Leicester kit may bridge the gap between technical and ugly for them

It is nasty, alright.

And just imagine how many tigers they had to kill and skin to deck out the team and subs!

given that the main jersey isn't going to change are they going to issue one specifically for the Heineken like 2010/2011. They will want to have some way of keeping merch sales up and that's a good way. I guess the training jersey above could probably do the job.

Was in the Leinster Store today. This years gear is nice, #3 jersey is decent, I'm not a big fan of the spearmint colour though.

Did they have the 3 star jerseys up? Wouldn't mind seeing an ould pic. Best reason to be let down with a jersey is for it to become out dated within a season by winning a major tournament, but seeing as I gave my old favourite jersey away during the season and my "new" one is out dated in less than a year leaves me reeling a bit.

Will wait out the season before getting a new jersey though. If I do get a couple of pennies to rub together I'd get that training jersey.

Funnily enough I have seen them in a shop in Sydney (famous sports store there called Mick Simmons). I assume a batch were made in advance of the HC final in 2011.

Think I've been in that shop. Presumably you went straight in and haggled a good price?

I was still buzzing from the Northampton game so I just called home and got the old dear to post a two-starred jersey over to me!

Any idea why the kids jersey doesnt have a sponsor?

Is it like the Alcohol on Jerseys, where kids shouldnt do something irresponsible like bank with BOI?

Finally caved and decided to buy the current home jersey. Finding one with three stars in Dublin was a nightmare, eventually got one in Arnotts. Nice.
