This is the new IFK Göteborg 2011 away football shirt made by Adidas. The main sponsor ICA—a grocery store chain—has figured on the jersey front since 1982, and has almost become part of the jersey.
The crest of IFK Göteborg has its origins in the coat of arms of the city of Gothenburg which in turn is based on several other heraldic arms. The lion on a field of silver and blue is the heraldic arms of the Folkungaätt, holding the Three Crowns of Sweden, both symbols being used in the Coat of arms of Sweden.
This arm was granted to the city by Gustavus Adolphus. The coat-of-arms of Gothenburg sees the lion facing the sinister (heraldic right) side which often is interpreted as a fleeing lion, the normal being a lion facing the dexter (left) side, but IFK chose to have the lion facing dexter on the club crest. Adding the three letters IFK on top and the crest used since it first appeared on the kit in 1919 is complete.

Or Sport Boys (peruvian team).
jajajajajajajajajajaja
What I meant was that a pink jersey never works unless you are a team that has pink as part of the club's history. Juventus wore pink shirts with black tie when they were formed, they only wear the stripes now because of Notts County. Palermo have always worn pink as far as I know.
Any teams "jumping on the bandwagon" and bringing out a pink shirt just look stupid. Unless its for a certain cause like when Everton brought out a pink shirt for a cancer charity.
Congratulations on announcing your homocensoreduality
That is a pathetic comment
Some of you are being to crabby.
Kind of too similar to the new Colorado Rapids Jersey. Besides the collar, the exact same template. i thought the pionted thing on the back was unique to colorado ... the Rocky Mountains
Would have thought if it were the mountains then it would have been pointing up, not down?
AND ALSO TOO SIMPLE. LAST SEASON THOSE GREECE TEMPLATES WAS SO censoredED UP , BUT THIS IS A TOTALLY DIFFERENT LEVEL
I`M DESAPOINTED , ADIDAS WITHOUT NEW IDEAS AND MAKING SOMETHING THAT´S NOT NEW AT ALL
Innocence is a connotation of the colour blue, (the Virgin Mary normally wore blue in paintings etc), so this was seen to be a girls' colour.
It only changed around WWI, when the uniforms were blue, and that become a seen as a masculine colour and pink was then premoted as a feminine colour with the "Think Pink" campaign.
So... Pink was a boys' colour long before it was for girls (or gays, as the less intelligent people on this forum would like to think).
Awesome kit, awesome colour.
That is all.
also theirs a h n a n missin from the name its gothenborg not goteborg
stupid n gay kit lol
Well actually you assface, Goteborg is how they spell it in Sweden which coincidentally is where Gothenburg is
also I think you should check the pictures again, it's not you in the pictures (stupid 'n' gay) it's a football kit
Well said.
1) You typed "theirs" when you should have typed "there's".
2) The English spelling is not "gothenborg" but "Gothenburg".
I do not often wish ill on people but please, I beg you, come to my country then I can take you to the Triglav mountain and throw you off the top.
Your continued bigoted nature, immature comments and general ability to annoy everybody here infuriates me. I am amazed as to why you have not been banned.
well jarko i proberly havnt been banned coz theirs no reason to b! i always make fair comments n always complement kits when they r nice bt every1 keeps givin me red dots!
i think its u who is the bigot mate. either that or ur jst jelous that english football is best in world!
u r jst jelous that england r best footbaling nation on the planet! get over it!
And no we're not.
Hmm ok, let us begin then if you wish to go into battle. Firstly my name is spelt Jarkko.
Secondly, I am from Eastern Europe and I have a better grasp of your language than you do.
I would love you to explain how I am the bigot, or indeed, if you understand the word. You are very insular in nature and seem to have the blinkers on and not willing to accept that there are nations better than England (5 according to FIFA). I must say I have no issues with your compatriots and mean no offence to them by what I say, because I value their input and not yours.
If English football is so good then why does your national team constantly fail in major competitions? Why do players like Ronaldo feel they have to leave for Spain, and why do players move to England or flit around clubs there? Well they move there for money. End of story. Big players leave because they realise that Spain can offer them more in Ronaldo's case. Stop holding on to 1966 and actually achieve something, then I will listen to you.
You also do not make 'fair comments' You believe that Spartak Moscow is in Bulgaria and has Egyptian script as their sponsor, and that the colour pink is 'gay'. I would hazard that you may need to consult a map, I will send you one if you like.
Not everybody panders to your nation, to most of my countrymen it is people like you who give England a bad name, you are probably still at school (to which I plead you pay attention more in class) and not more than 18. I also believe that you will grow up to glorify acts like the trouble caused by some ignorant English fans in Euro 2000 and believe that such lowly people that dare to come from countries far away should look upon you as some form of Master Race.
Finally, I enjoy English football, however I would prefer to sit and watch Barcelona, Valencia or Inter Milan than certain teams from your country. I am jealous of nothing, I am happy and I know when somebody is out of their depth, like you in this case.
n secondly my litle eastern european friend i dont care wither ur from serbia or croata or checkoslovakia bottom line is ur country could nvr b as gd as england! sorry thats the truth!
I never said that Slovenia etc were as good as England, however it is one thing having a strong team on paper and another having one that performs to a good standard when it reaches tournaments, which, sadly, your nation does not.
Regards to gelling your team, you were out in South Africa a long time before the tournament began and they have played together for a whole qualifying campaign, if they haven't gelled by then then they never will.
Shut the f*ck up and admit your overrated national team deserved to get knocked out of the World Cup because you were f*cking rubbish, you pathetic English bastard.
well said mate, well said
What? Thanks to the unfair way the TV money is handed out in Spain, the competition there is terrible, doomed to be a perpetual two-horse race between Barca and Real.
The Spanish league is a joke - the Iberian equivalent of the SPL.
Regardless of TV money it will be dominated by FCB and Real. Huge debts yet they keep functioning, you make a valid point. However, how is it fair for say, an average team in Man City to suddenly have wealth? Where is fairness to teams like Stoke, Bolton etc? The Portuguese league is as bad as BBVA and SPL, Benfica or Porto every year.
