Third kit worn in the 2006 First Division season, a season in which despite winning the promotion play off, Dundalk were... controversially denied promotion as after winning the play off they were judged to have failed to meet the Independent Assessment Group criteria and they would not be promoted to the Premier Division, with third placed Galway United would be promoted instead. The decision proved to be controversial and on 13 December, Mark Kavanagh, a Dundalk fan protesting the decision entered the FAI's headquarters in Merrion Square and allegedly threatened to set himself on fire after pouring petrol on his head and on furniture in the offices and reception area, however he gave up the protest after obtaining a meeting with Dundalk manager John Gill. Dundalk eventually accepted the FAI decision and remained in the First Division.
