A-League:
Season Club Strips Revealed
26/07/05

The eight club strips for the 2005-2006 club season supplied by single provider Reebok, in two basic styles only, were revealed at Bondi Junction in Sydney today. Most notable are the blue & orange strip of Queensland when maroon was expected and the gold and black of Newcastle. It is believed all away strips are based on white. The strips shown above will be worn in the season proper, and alternative strips have been used in the CWC and Preseason cup.
