DUBLIN IS GEARING up for a big weekend of MMA, with UFC Fight Night taking place in the 3Arena this Saturday.
Ahead of the event, Reebok has asked Irish UFC fans to show their ‘territorial allegiance’ with this €23 t-shirt. The only thing is, there’s one rather glaring omission.
Unsurprisingly, people are NOT impressed that Northern Ireland has been completely removed from the equation.
Reebok has been inundated with tweets from people angrily wondering why it was left out:

After the backlash, Reebok decided to withdraw the t-shirt - the company tweeted that the gaffe was a result of a “design error”.
