SHELBOURNE’S AWAY KIT for the 2022 season will feature the names of all the club’s season ticket holders, in a move designed to thank supporters for ‘keeping the club alive’ during the Covid-19 pandemic.
The blue and white shirt, produced by Umbro, was launched by the Dublin club today.
The names of season holders are printed in subtle writing which covers the shirt, with a large number of season ticket holders choosing to put forward the names of supporters who have passed away.
The names of all the volunteers within the club are also included on the shirt.
