I've heard that the reason the German Football Team's Away strip is Green to honour the fact that Ireland was the only team that would play them after WWII.... Whilst I love the piece of trivia I'm wondering if it's truth or urban myth??

I'm afraid the truth is so mundane. It's green because that's the easiest color to see alternate colors against.
But keep the legend. It's ever so much nicer.

As far as I know, it's a myth.The first match after the war was against Switzerland, not Ireland.The Away colors have changed several times, the green/white combination represents either the german football associations (DFB) colors or the colors of the football field.
Sorry.

I am a football fan but I have no idea if it is true or not...
Sounds realistic, though...
