Give the green light

Shades of green are up for debate as our Away Kit Battle’s Second Chance Saloon rolls on, with another two jerseys handed this week’s opportunity of a reprieve.

A total of 12 strips are already safely through to the next phase of our project to determine Cliftonville’s best reverse ensemble of the last 30 years but, to ensure no kit misses out through sheer misfortune of our opening draw, we’re offering some stays of execution – continuing with the Lime Green & Navy Rossco effort from the turn of the century facing off against the Club’s 125th Anniversary ensemble.

The motivation behind your vote rests entirely with you. Perhaps it was the away strip the Reds wore in your first season following them across the land, or maybe there’s a favourite player from that era who’s synonymous with a particular kit in your mind’s eye.

Did the team surge to trophy success while bedecked in a certain top or, from a purely aesthetical point of view, do you just happen to like the colour and design more than the others?

Whatever your reason, we want supporters young and old to play their part in helping us compile a definitive list that stretches all the way back to 1990.

Our poll closes at noon on Monday, so you’ve got the whole weekend to make a considered decision before clicking the button – and, with the defeated jersey which accumulates most votes handed a final shot at redemption, every contribution really does count!



Lime Green & Navy Stripes
Supplier: Rossco
Sponsor: KitKat
Worn: 1999/00
Notes: A possible nod back to the early-to-mid-90s efforts that saw the Reds turn out in Green & Navy Stripes under a brace of suppliers, this kit lasted just one campaign and made its final appearance in a Play-Off defeat of Ards at Castlereagh Park.


125th Anniversary Green & Silver
Supplier: O’Neills
Sponsor: MDS Pharma Services
Worn: 2004/05, 2005/06, 2006/07
Notes: A bottle-green number adorned with a trio of silver stripes down the left side, Cliftonville’s 125th Anniversary kit was worn for the final time on the day a long overdue return to European football was secured when the Reds defeated Crusaders in April 2007.
