Its to celabrate both our football culture,and our facilitation of many musical acts over the years which took place in dalymount.the club felt it would be appropriate to put Bob on the shirts,as he is a poplar choice

Excellent Tribute.

My late brother Vino was at the gig, and wasn't even a toker!

Bohemians' new Bob Marley inspired away jersey has attracted interest from far beyond Ireland, according to the club's commercial director.
Bohs sparked much comment when they unveiled their new away jersey this morning, which bears the likeness of Bob Marley on the front.
In a unique move, Bohs said it was a nod to the musical history of Dalymount Park.
A statement read: "Dalymount Park has played a unique part – chiefly in the sporting – but also in the musical and cultural history of Ireland.
"The Home of Irish Football was graced in the 1970s by Thin Lizzy and the Boomtown Rats, in the 1980s by Bob Marley, Meatloaf and Black Sabbath, and in the 1990s by Faith No More, Sonic Youth, Ice Cube and the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
"This jersey, designed by Bohemian FC in conjunction with our new kit supplier O’Neills, gives a nod to that history – and to the stadium’s special place in the hearts of both football and music fans."
We are delighted to reveal our 2019 away jersey. Designed by #Bohs in conjunction with our new kit suppliers O’Neills, it gives a nod to Dalymount's special place in the hearts of football and music fans. Available for pre-order in time for Christmas: https://t.co/gCjzKUSiJK ?? pic.twitter.com/H6ZMlIMLQA
Bohemians, fourth in the LOI roll of honour, enjoyed a hugely successful decade in the noughties, winning four league titles, including doubles in both 2001 and 2008.
However, the club fell into financial difficulties at the turn of the decade, sliding down the pecking order and switching to a members-owned model.
The club appears buoyant at present, however, with attendances on the increase and improving on-field performances under the management of Keith Long.
Speaking on Game On RTÉ 2fm, the Bohs commercial director Daniel Lambert said the club had tried to re-define themselves in recent years.
"A lot of what we've done as a club in the last five or six years, we've tried to re-define ourselves I suppose," he told presenter Hugh Cahill.
"A lot of League of Ireland clubs over the years, their marketing and how they present themselves has been very one-dimensional, in a space where clubs are up against the marketing might of the Premier League.
"You can't go up against that marketing power that the Premier League has and the grip it has on the country and just go with standard marketing messages.
"So, we've tried to go with different things. Around the stadium, for instance, we've graffiti murals, one of them is of Bob Marley, one is of Phil Lynott.
"We've obviously done a lot of work in the local area. We've grown attendances. We've worked really hard as a club, we're all volunteers."
Lambert added that the jersey has already attracted more orders than they - or indeed any league of Ireland club - could hope to attract with an away strip.
"It's on every football site in the world. It's in Germany, it's in India, South America. The orders are coming in. It's great for us. As a members owned club, we don't have private investment. In a week when Dundalk are breaking records - and hats off to them, they're an amazing team - we're getting a lot of publicity around the world.
"You need to be clever as a members owned club when you don't have the financial muscle that other clubs might have with private investment, you have to think outside the box.
"Some people are totally against it. But the reality is, with League of Ireland clubs, your jersey sales for your away jerseys are pretty low. This has totally smashed any away sales that we could expect to get."
The shirt will be used for 2019 SSE Airtricity League season.

As Bob did actually play in Dalymount in 1980 then I think it is a fitting tribute and an excellent marketing ploy.

Who knows whom may follow, will we see the Cork hurlers with Micheal Jackson on their shirt ?

To be fair Bubba was the first to spot the problem.

"However, in a statement Bohemians explained that the late singer’s representative agency contacted them to inform the club that they had no right to use his image."

The agency may not hold the rights either. The photographer who took the picture owns the picture rights unless the Marley estate bought the rights. Anyways, as I alluded to, Bohs didn`t get permission from the Marley Estate. DM didn`t bother replying either.

As Boh's seem to be a forward thinking club maybe their next venture might be to sign Usain Bolt, the 32 year old Jamacian olympic athlete, he is mad looking fer a club to play professional soccer with and is currently out of contract with some low league Aussie side.

It's a bit of a kick in de nuts alrite DM, but surely someone in the Boh's management team should have known more about the legal side of using such an image, even Bubba spotted the difficulties on day 1.

Who owns the clenched fist as far as I  remember it was a black power salute at the olympics .So now have Bohs got another problem as the image is political and FIFA ban all political emblems on jerseys .Is this Dejavoux again .Dollymount point out my concernabout the political symbolism to your club .
Title: Re: Bob Marley
Post by: Belker on November 06, 2018, 05:22:01 pm
@ John M, I read an article about that Fist symbol a few days ago, it is not political, it stands fer a sign of unity, Etc. and seemingly this time they did go through all the correct channels but possibly forgetting about FIFA and UEFA.

The raised fist, or the clenched fist, is a symbol of solidarity and support. It is also used as a salute to express unity, strength, defiance, or resistance.RESISTANCE =black power political .I just contacted the club on the issue .

The 1968 Olympics Black Power Salute was a political demonstration conducted by African-American athletes Tommie Smith and John Carlos during their medal ceremony on October 16, 1968, at the 1968 Summer Olympics in the Olympic Stadium in Mexico City.

have any problem with his image being used fer a Dublin club.

I didn't know that the Doobs disliked Sir Bob so much, I suppose it's the same with Keano down here, most of Cork dispise him !

As fer Bob criticizing the 1916 leadership, that is a pretty easy one, to be fair they did make a total hames of organising it on the day, check the history of it fer yourself, it was a total Fook-up ! But with that said, it did get a lorra wheels in motion, helped greatly by the blood-thirsty sasanachs who stoopidly executed the Rising's leaders. As fer his knighthood, he totally deserved it fer his efforts with Band-aid and Live-aid and it would have tarnished the Charity events if'n he had refused the 'honour'.

I reckon that would still be under copyright.

My last business once used a Harp logo taken from a paid Corel Draw disc as part of our Irish logo,
it looked nothing like the guinness Harp logo, but guinness were on to us pretty soon aferwards and
threatening all types of legal shite because they reckoned that they owned all and every type of Harp logo.
We spoiled the Harp by putting a horses head in the center of it and guinness were happy wiv that,
it seemed an easier option than to take on a company with Billions behind them

O`Neill`s had a copyright row with Adidas in the 80s , they used the 3 stripes on shirt sleeves . Forget how it panned out but O`Neill`s should have known better about copyright laws or maybe they thought they did. The poster for the gig would be owned by Pat Egan and not the Marley Estate .

Geldoff didnt criticize the 1916 leadership from the point of view that they made a bollox of it,he reckoned they should never have risen up against the tyrants at all. That we should have remained under the Brits control.as far as the knight hood is concerned ,any Irish man who accepts such an award,goes way down in my estimation,and before you say it,yes I know there are loads who already have.this prick also made a ferciperious challenge to Nigel Ferage on a matter that was none of his fukking business ie brexit.the same as that other wanker bono who keeps involving himself in world politics

Seeing as you`re not replying to anything I posted on the subject and are loathe to ask me anything, here`s what Boh`s should do. Use a silhouette of Bob Marley with one dreadlock missing. Jim Fitzpatrick did it with the Che silhouette and only recently enforced his rights to the image. He effectively owned the silhouette rights.
