Galatasaray 2008/09 Adidas 3rd football shirt
Galatasaray unveiled their new 08/09 3rd football shirt made by adidas in their club shop. Galatasaray was founded in the autumn of 1905, by Galatasaray Lisesi students as a football club. In 1905, during the era of the Ottoman Empire, there were no laws for associations so the club could not be registered officially, but, after the 1912 Law of Association, the club registered legally. Galatasaray's first president was Ali Sami Yen.
" Our aim is to play together like Englishmen, to have a colour and a name and to beat the non - Turkish teams. "
Ali Sami Yen
This was how the first Turkish football club was founded. At first, the colours of the Galatasaray Sports Club were red and white. These are the colours in Turkish flag. However, Turkish Republic was not founded at that time. Therefore, this inspiration caused repressive administration of the day feel uncomfortable and the administration hounded the footballers. For this reason, the colours were changed.
New colours were chosen as red and yellow. Ali Sami Yen stated, "We were imagining brightness of yellow - red fire over our team and thinking that it would carry us from one victory to another." It eventually did.

I don\'t like the all red back
why do the three stripes go all the way down?!
but on new season shirt I did not like the color yellow and red as well. as if they are not the colors of Galatasaray?! should strictly be checked by adi and the club.
anyway I have to confess I love this 3D crest really, looks expensive.
wish a successful season...
i was fed up with seeing kits dvided into 2 but that is an excatly different one and stylish also...
So you can buy as a Fan the classic diveded red-yellow home and a different red-yellow one.
I do not think that GS will wear them in more than 5 matches this year.
In 2 months the other 3 new one will be presented
1) HOME: classic \"divided\" (maybe with white shorts. still unclear. But it will be the real GS diveded one. Not like the home in the last 3 years)
2) HOME: classic white (like 1975/1976)
3) ALTERNATIVE: this one
4) UEFA matches: Orange
1 has already mentioned that the orange shirt is a xcombination of red and yellow and was requested by a sponsor company.. industrial football.......
but our classic shirt the \"divided\" shirt (parcali) will have an excellent come back to its originality..
the current chairman is 1 that likes 2 b unique to his clubs colours and culture..
my ideal
home: divided red yellow, as plain as possible
away: plain white with red and yellow adidas stripes
3.kit: black with red stripes and yellow trimmings..
yellow-red always
forza GALATASARAY
Home shirt wil allways be red-yellow.
the biggest turkish club is FENERBAHCE !!!!!!!
